Top Storybook Island Hotel Reviews

Hotel Alex Johnson Rapid City, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice, comfy king bed. Friendly front desk staff. Starbucks attached and great bar also! Only downfall, street parking with meters. 15 min loading and unloading parking right in front. They do have valet for $28 a day."

Quiet cul-de-sac on 18-hole golf course. Good neighbors.

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect location for our trip ‘home’ to Rapid City. We were all raised with 2 miles of this property so that was convenient for us to get back to our roots. We were so comfortable here and enjoyed our time as a family…. Sharing meals and enjoying cut-throat UNO (a long time family game that breaks all ties to family..lol)Thank you again for helping making our trip a memorable one!"

⁂Pet-Friendly⁂Fenced Yard⁂Cozy Westside Abode⁂

10/10 Excellent

"This is a perfect spot for exploration of the Black Hills. We loved that there were two separate living areas for sleeping while a central living room allowed for shared times. All amenities were provided. We appreciated having temperature control since there were some outside temp swings in mid-October. Off street parking was an added plus. The neighborhood is quiet. The hosts were top notch with instructions and timely communication. We were very pleased with the entire experience."

3 Bed 2 Bath, Golf Course and Fully Fenced Yard!

10/10 Excellent

"First off the house is spotless! I can't remember staying in a better kept property. It's located across the street to a Golf Course and within close walking distance to a beautiful park. My wife totally enjoyed her morning walks with Clifford the Texas healer. Everything we needed was available for a great stay. We also used the garage to keep our car in and very much enjoyed the manicured back yard lawn. Book with confidence!"

The Cottonwood Farmhouse

8/10 Good

"Location of home is great for touring everything. The host was very quick to respond with questions. The lay out is perfect for multiple families meeting up at one location. Very kid friendly for all ages. Home was clean with laundry on site. This is a great place for anyone looking to stay with larger group of people."
