Originally designed by prolific Bozeman architect Fred Fielding Willson and built in 1941 to house the Bozeman National Guard, the landmark Armory building is a timeless example of Art Deco design. Today, the building begins a new chapter as the Kimpton Armory Hotel, though details of its rich past have been lovingly preserved. From our warm and inviting communal spaces, to our stylish yet comfortable 122 guest rooms and suites, the new look and feel of the hotel fuses the ruggedly handsome and the tastefully modern, while drawing inspiration from the natural panorama of the region itself.

This hotel is conveniently located near Main Street in Downtown Bozeman. We were able to walk to all of the restaurants and shoppes we wanted to go to. It was also easy for our Uber to pick us up and drop us off here, with the one way street and valet area in front of the hotel. Checking in was easy and the person working the desk was friendly and informative. The lobby was spacious and the theatre was cute. The social hour in that nicely appointed lobby was really nice and I appreciated that thoughtful touch. Our room was clean and comfortable. If I had any complaints it would be the noise of the train at all hours of the day and night, the shower leaked onto a large metal plate and was super loud and the fire alarm had an erratic green light that would randomly light up the whole room. We dined in the restaurant and drank at both bars. We really liked the roof top bar and it's firepits and views. The pool is up on this level, and while we didn't swim, it was heated and nice enough to use in the cold. I'm not sure if I'd stay here again. It would depend on the circumstance. What really got me was the late check out. They do a "first come, first serve" late checkout so you have to wake up early and call at 7am for them to give you a random time. It wasn't worth it and we ended up just hanging out at the airport for a few hours.

We loved the wine at check in.. the pairing meal was excellent in the restaurant. The pool and hot tub was super nice and relaxing and very peaceful while it was snowing!!! Will be back in November again!

The room is nice. They do not have a coffee or tea machine in the room. They do have a robe and slippers. The top floor pool and fire pits are a nice touch.

We enjoyed the delightful Armory Hotel on a recent fall weekend. The hotel is perfectly located one block from the bustling Main Street where dozens of boutiques, restaurants, bars, coffee spots and many other things are located. The front desk gives you a shopping list with a discount code at check in. The front desk staff is fabulous and helpful. Check in was a breeze! Rooms are well appointed and comfortable. Morning coffee service is provided in the lobby. There is a rooftop pool which includes a beautiful view of the City. Recommend including the valet parking in your reservation. Self parking appears limited. Highly recommended for your next trip to Bozeman!!

The Kimpton is the best hotel in Bozeman, from what I could ascertain. It certainly seemed to have the best restaurant in town. We stayed there as part of a group function and enjoyed the outstanding cuisine, especially the prime local Montana beef, delicious corn chowder with trout, and the superior corn muffins. As an IHG Rewards Premium member, we were upgraded to a nice corner room with views of the mountains. The front desk staff were consistently friendly and helpful. This particular property, though, lacked some of the Kimpton's luxury elements. Don't order a kier royale, a drink with which neither of the bartenders were familiar. There was certainly nothing about the room which would seemed to justify a price north of $500. The bathroom, for one, was small and would was more representative of what you would find in a typical Sheraton or Hilton than a luxury brand. The closet was hidden behind a solid door that didn't easily give, leading me to conclude that it was a barrier to a connecting room before a front desk staff member explained that it was the door the closet and not recognizing it as such was a frequent guest impression. Overall, this is probably the best points hotel in downtown Bozeman, but aside from the excellence of the kitchen, you will have to temper the expectations that such a high-priced hotel room conveys.
