Stovepipe Wells Village

Everyone we interacted with here was great. From the two guys I talked to (I can only remember Ramon's name) cleaning the rooms to the servers at the restaurant and bartender. Helpful and exceedingly nice. Rooms are basic and could definitely use a microwave but as clean as they could be and the overall location is great for a home base in the park.

Room was pretty basic. It forces you to be there just to sleep. & no microwave was such a bummer. The walls are pretty thin so outside noise could keep you up if you are a light sleeper.
They said the pool is ‘heated’ but it was pretty cold so couldn’t use it.

Location is pretty good. Just 5 minutes away from the sand dunes.
General store just across the road was convenient.
Restaurant food was really good. Breakfast buffet is available for $9.50 per person. It’s decent but dinner is way better.

Overall pretty happy with the stay

We stayed two nights at the Stovepipe Wells Village Hotel while visiting Death Valley and had a nice stay. Staff were friendly at check-in and the room was clean and spacious. They're motel style rooms so nothing fancy, but just fine for a couple nights. There is a restaurant and saloon on the property and the general store and gas station is just across the street. The prices here a much more reasonable than at the oasis. Stovepipe Wells is very close to Mosaic Canyon and Mesquite Flats Sand Dunes and provides easy access. We visited the dunes one night after dark to stargaze. Overall, a really nice stay and more reasonable prices compared to the oasis.

We had dinner here but we didn’t stay in their hotel. Food was better than expected being there’s not much other options to go. Also, they were open late at night. I will just not get their cheesecake. Other than that, it was a good experience and was glad we didn’t have to drive for 2 more hours to the nearest populated town.

This place is a hidden gem, it has old style charm. Our room was spacious and clean. It had all the necessities. Nothing like opening your door in the morning and see the sunrise and vastness of Death Valley. The staff are top notch, from registration, saloon, restaurant to gift shop, all are super friendly and helpful.
