Great little gem

Loved this little motel. No restaurant, but plenty close by. Room clean and so retro. Great a/c. Lots of pillows. Friendly staff. It has been remodeled. Everything near by. My husband was like, “You booked a motel not a hotel?” But ended up loving it. Swings and all.

Our 1 night stay at the Sapphire Motel was delightful! We were sorry that we didn't plan more time to enjoy this fun motel and explore Bozeman. Our accommodations were everything you saw on line and more! LOVED the retro feel, room was spacious, tastefully decorated and immaculately clean. The location was ideal for a short drive or within a reasonable walk to Main Street for restaurant & shops. Loved the park setting in the middle of the parking lot and wish that I could have enjoyed it even more. The staff was friendly, courteous and most helpful with great recommendations for restaurants etc. I would HIGHLY recommend a stay at the Sapphire and for more than 1 night if you can.
