dont expect too much as it is just motel. However, it is not just a motel. It is a motel with long history. I believe the motel preserved its core architecture since then, and you can imagine the pioneers one hundred years ago stay at the same place, looking at the same sky as you. The staff is great as well.

It’s important to know before you go that Death Valley Junction is essentially a ghost town. There are no stores, gas stations or restaurants in the immediate area. The hotel is a fascinating location and the story of Marta Becket is inspiring for artists. I have to grade the property on a curve: as an historic property it’s amazing. It is not, however, a modern hotel, so don’t expect much in the way of amenities. The building and the plumbing are over 100 years old, there are no phones or televisions in the rooms, and cell phone reception is nonexistent. The hotel does have WiFi, so you won’t be totally disconnected. I ultimately really enjoyed my stay, but it’s important to know what you’re getting yourself into. Also, ours was supposedly the most haunted room in the hotel, but alas we didn’t have any paranormal encounters.

Amazing experience

Definitely stayed for the experience. Online pictures looked so cool and seeing it in person made it even better. There were a lot of review about it being run down and not being super updated. Literally the whole point of the experience is the culture of the building. My room and bathroom was very clean, loaded with supplies, the front desk staff was extremely friendly, and check-in/check/out was very smooth. It was only 30 minutes from Death Valley National Park and only an hour and 45 minutes from Las Vegas so it was super convenient! I absolutely loved this place for my solo trip and I will certainly be back again!!

Amazing historic place that needs to be preserved

Amazing place and my favorite stay on the trip. You can tell the hotel has history and atmosphere is incomparable. Dealing with a few inconveniences like old plumbing system was well worth the ambiance and a quiet night in a warm bed. Definitely take the tour of the opera house! Looking forward to going back next year!

The opera house is very interesting and nice to see but it needs updating badly. The room we stayed in had peeling paint on the ceiling and the shower had cracked tiles. It is very old and the hot water took forever to get to the shower. Then the faucet was broken so it dripped all night. The owner was very nice, though.

Tired but peaceful

The hotel is worn down, but they staff is trying to keep it going and we found it quiet and peaceful. Just a bit rugged, but considering it's in the middle of the 'high desert' it serves a practical and peaceful respite.

It’s a hundred year old hotel that is slowly dying. It’s in constant repair. The draw is the history and the beautiful opera house. Marta Becket created wonderful murals thru out the hotel and the whole opera house. A piece of history that needs to be kept.

Strong moldy smell everywhere. Couldn’t stay the night. Dilapidated. It’s old but conditions are unacceptable even for an old property. 15 minutes to get hot water for shower. Staff was nice and they refunded our money.

The intent of my trip was to take a tour of the opera house so so stayed at the hotel. At check in I was assured the tour would take place at 9am in morning. At 9am I went to the front desk and the staff stated the tour was canceled as it was too cold. After a 7 hour car drive to Death Valley I feel Expedia mis represented what I needed to make a rational buying decision. The mold and terrible conditions would have been tolerable if the opera tour was available. I have been a loyal customer to Expedia and a discount or voucher for next trip would be nice

Historic property in less than good repair. Needs paint, has unpleasant odor, no dining at the property, closest restaurant 7 miles away. If repaired and painted, has much potential.

The building was a lovely historic building. But it was not clean. Our bathroom smelled like sewage and permeated most of the building. We were able to use it as a place to sleep and got out of there first thing in the morning.

I love the opera house, and promise to become its benefactor if I ever win the lottery. I love the quiet quirkiness and the history. I don’t mind the no TVs and no frills approach, because I’m there to be inside Death Valley, not my room. Adjust your expectations, use their dining room to prepare your own simple meals, and appreciate this affordable gem close to the park! This is the only place I will stay when I come to Death Valley because it’s the only affordable CLOSE option! Thanks Amargosa Opera House - you are loved and appreciated!
