The historic hotel was beautiful. I loved the character of the place. The room was on the smaller side but updated and nice. The room had high ceilings and large windows. The steakhouse was really good for breakfast and dinner. Would definitely stay here again. The parking down the street wasn’t ideal but it worked fine.

The hotel was lovely! It was recently remodeled, and our room was really nice. The only thing is that there is only one bathroom and one door, which was in one of the bedrooms (we rented a 2-room suite). In short, my friend had to go through our bedroom to use the restroom, which can be awkward. The staff members were absolutely awesome! The front door staff was consistently helpful and friendly.

If you are ever in Deadwood you should stay here. You will not be disappointed. From the staff to the location and the remodeled rooms, everything was perfect. We had breakfast at the restaurant downstairs and it was phenomenal.

We enjoyed our stay. The hotel was clean, and the staff was very helpful. The only comment/recommendation is that we rented a 2-bedroom, and the bathroom is in one of the bedrooms (obviously, as the suite was just the 2 rooms). The issue with this is that our friend had to go through our bedroom to access the bathroom. We are good friends, so no big deal, but it could have been quite awkward. As a thought, perhaps an additional door could be added going from the main/first bedroom into the bathroom from the other side. I'm sure there is a reason it is like that, and it did not negatively affect our stay in the least. Highly recommend this historic and important hotel.

The Franklin Hotel, was great , the place had been renovated but keep all the original charm of the original building. We stayed in a third floor suite over looking the town spare. The staff were very friendly and helpful with ideas to explore the area. We ate a the hotel’s restaurant call Legends steakhouse . The service was great and the food was excellent.

The personnel at the front desk were friendly and informative. The recommendation for a restaurant proved to be spot on and the food was delicious. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I do, however, wish the pillows weren’t so large as it proved to be difficult to stay asleep, but that is just a personal preference. The city of Deadwood is all about casinos, which was surprising. Every single store and restaurant had slot machines. The buildings are historic and worth the walk around town to see them.
