The Sapphire has a lot of cute and thoughtful details and amenities, which make it unique! The bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately, it is not an a cute location,, like downtown. Although you can walk 5-10 minutes to get downtown.. it also has poor sound insulation between rooms

Wonderful place to stay!

We loved staying at the Sapphire! Bummed to have stayed only 1 night. The decor was absolutely awesome and nothing was left behind. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. It’s also a great location where you can walk to downtown Bozeman. Highly recommend staying here if you are coming to Bozeman!
