I was passing through with my sister and a friend, wanted to stay In Missoula and decided to try the Thunder Bird. Very nice welcome - clean room and plenty of room for the three of us. A bonus was the pool. Breakfast isn't much (we skipped it and went on down the road for a full meal), but there's... More

I typically a hotel snob and perfer chains, so when my husband suggested the Thunderbird, I was a little leary. when checking in, the staff was very friendly. It appears to be family run. We were gven a discount because there were no 1 bed non-smoking rooms. The room we had was very spacious - 2 beds, a table &... More

I was traveling through the Missoula area and had to get a room when the passes closed due to bad winter weather. I spent three nights at the Thunderbird. It's clean, quiet, and the staff is friendly. I wanted to take the bed home with me it was so comfortable. I'd stay at the Thunderbird again anytime. More

It's dated, it has some settling, the occasional train at night doesn't even wake me anymore. It's clean, has larger T.V.s good coffee in the morning, pleasant , accommodating staff. Pool and hot tub are clean. Beds are a dream, (owner pays for extra quality). Good rates (when there is no home football game) I stay there 10+ times a... More

Overpriced for what you got. Awful room. The carpeting made me afraid to take my shoes off. Bed was pure mush, sheets rough, the worlds tiniest excuse of a refrigerator (could only fit one ice pack in the freezer space), the sink is nowhere near the bathroom. Worst was the air conditioner did not work; you could feel cold air... More

We needed an inexpensive place to stay for literally 8 hours over night, just to recharge our batteries. At $57.78 including tax this was the cheapest we found. The hotel looks like the type of seedy place people would do drug deals or bring their "date" for the night. Besides the shower, the room was clean. It was quite large,... More

I have stayed here 3 times in the past with my family. They accept dogs happily but this last time, we were dog-less. This is always extremely clean, roomy, and inexpensive. We paid $54 with a AAA discount and got a huge room with big bathroom, fridge and microwave. My friend who I was traveling with also found out that... More
