Yes! We rolled out the welcome mat for our very first guests in June, and we're eagerly counting the days until we get to see you, too!
We have a curated selection of Helena's best bites for you to sample. While we don't make food at the Bell, we infuse our local fave fare. Think handmade pop tarts from the Vanilla Bean and signature chocolate cake from Park Avenue Bakery. The resident ice cream truck will keep the sweet tooth at bay. Plus, we have a vending machine from Montana Snacks for grab & go galore! Not to mention Starbucks next door.
Check-in starts at 3:00 p.m. and check-out is at 11:00 a.m. Want more time to enjoy the comforts of your room? No problem! For $30 you can extend your stay with early check-in at 1:00 and/or a late check-out at 1:00. Need a specific check-in/check-out time? Let us know and we will be happy to do our best to accomodate your needs.
No gym, no pool, but it’s no problem! We've got 3 miles of scenic trails with workout stations that’ll make your outdoor sweat session a breath of fresh mountain air. In summer, a short stroll through the park lands you at Last Chance Splash Waterpark and Pool, featuring 50-meter pool, two slides, a splashpad, lazy river,, and a concession stand for the snackers. Fear not, American Red Cross-certified lifeguards have got your back, and you can rent life jackets.
Our main Lobby Lounge is your cozy hangout from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., but staff is availble anytime so just give us holler at 406-475-6167—text or call, we’re here for you! Explore our Mini Lobbies on the first and second floors, open 24/7. If you’ve got a midnight snack attack or towel tragedy, they’re packed with everything from ice to local secrets (aka our recommendations for a good time), snacks, and a treasure chest of fun: trail maps, crafts, games, and books! Grab goodies to jazz up your room or make camp and enjoy the bonus spaces.
We adore our four-legged pals! With the pet fee, your pup scores a cozy bed, tasty treats, poop bags, and a map for their tail-wagging adventure to the bark park.
Each room comes with its very own VIP parking spot, just like a celebrity! For those needing extra space, public parking is nearby, cozied up next to the park. And hold onto your tinfoil hats, because soon we’ll be juicing up with a free EV charging station for our eco-friendly travelers!
Yes, of course! On the main floor, we've got two snazzy ADA rooms: a King Single and a Queen Double. They're decked out with roll-in showers, handheld showerheads, a wall-mounted seat, extra grab bars, and beds that do the wave with adjustable head/foot rests. Heading upstairs means tackling stairs, so if your knees have seen better days, just ask for a ground floor room and we'll roll out the red carpet for you.
Nope, but we mix up up a mean mocktail! Plus, we’re like GPS for the best sips around town and within walking distance to Lewis and Clark Brewery and the Brew House. Feel free to bring your beverages back to the hotel and savor them in your room, your patio, or under a pergola.
No night owls on duty, but fear not! Grizzly Security will be prowling like vigilant bears during their nightly rounds, with eyes in the sky thanks to monitored security cameras. Plus, your room doors come with extra muscle: a bonus chain lock for that extra peace of mind.
The Bell is a low-waste hotel. Say goodbye to single-use disposables in your room. Our bath goodies are proudly crafted in the USA by a women-owned company, using top-notch ingredients in recycled packaging. Here, you'll enjoy the native landscaping with the birds and the bees.
Great question! Our name harks back to the 1950s, when the Bell Motel occupied this location. Bell Hotel reinvents this historic Helena staple with a modern, eclectic vibe.
