Guest Ratings & Reviews
Our stay at the hotel was overall quite pleasant. It was conveniently located near the highway and had plenty of dining options within walking distance. The cleanliness of the room was commendable, though we did experience some delays with the hot water. The breakfast setup was adequate, featuring decent options despite some challenges. Overall, a good experience with only minor inconveniences.
The Watford Hotel was a solid choice for my road trip stop, especially with its close proximity to Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The room was spacious and clean, but I found the bathroom a tad cramped. The outdoor seating area was nice, and while the breakfast was adequate, the water pressure in the shower could use some improvement. Overall, it offered decent value for a night’s stay.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel while visiting Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The location is convenient, with many restaurants nearby, and my room was clean and spacious. However, the water pressure in the shower was a bit lacking, which made bathing take longer than I'd like. The breakfast was decent, but nothing too extraordinary. Overall, it's a good value choice if you're exploring the area.
I had a nice stay at the hotel, which is well-maintained overall and offers spacious rooms. While the breakfast setup was decent with real utensils, the hot water in the bathroom was a bit of a challenge at times. The location is convenient, close to restaurants and just a short drive to the national park, but the traffic noise from the busy road nearby can be disruptive, especially in the morning.

I had a nice stay at the hotel, which was well-maintained and offered a comfortable atmosphere. The staff was accommodating and moved us to a quieter suite when we had issues with our first room. However, the water pressure in the shower was not ideal, and the noise from the nearby busy road could be disruptive at times, especially in the morning.
