The hotel is less than two miles from whimsical Storybook Island and the local art exhibits at the Dahl Fine Arts Center. This unique hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1927, the Alex Johnson Hotel was designed to reflect South Dakota's heritage by incorporating Native American art and symbols into a Germanic Tudor architecture that reflects the German immigration into the Dakotas.

Cocktails at Landmark Lounge or Paddy O'Neils Pub are enjoyed late nights, with the pub featuring video lottery and gaming. The hotel offers complimentary airport shuttles and hosts a limited business center.

We spent two nights there on tour. It was great to see that a building with this historical background had been preserved. The lobby with the original American Indian decor was beautiful.

This was a wonderful place to stay. Staying in a Historic Hotel of the Rockies was the most unique experience I have ever had. They have a Native American theme throughout the hotel with a wonderful convenient Landmark Restaurant.
