Two new downtown hotels are still right on track to open this summer in Bozeman. The Element Hotel by Westin will be moving into 25 East Mendenhall and the Lark Motel will be moving into 122 West Main. The Element Hotel is scheduled to open by the end of June. The Lark Motel plans on accepting reservations starting in April.
Between the two hotels, they will add 142 additional rooms to the downtown area. These added rooms may find themselves needed quickly as Bozeman’s tourist reputation continues to expand onto the national horizon. Bozeman has built new hotels, new apartment complexes and new subdivisions for the increasing population of out of town visitors, whether permanent or not.
In addition, the Etha Hotel will be renovating and moving into the armory, but they will not open until 2016. The Etha will be a higher end hotel aiming at luxury vacationers.
Bozeman’s appetite for hotels continues to grow, showing the increasing tourism for the area overall. Yellowstone saw some of its highest attendance rates in summer 2014 and state parks saw attendance boosts as well. Coupled with Bozeman’s location to Big Sky and Bridger Bowl, along with its recent honor as a top 25 ski town in the world, its easy to see why more and more people are attracted to the greater Bozeman area.
