Landmark Lookout Lodge

Good morning all you traveling awesome people. I just got away for the weekend to Tombstone Arizona. I booked one night, sight unseen at this lodge. I want you good people to know that at first sight I was a little concerned because I’m used to staying in five star hotels and resorts. I pulled into the check in area and parked thinking the whole time what the heck did I book into? I walked into the lobby area and was pleasantly surprised. It was updated, clean, very peaceful. There was a few people waiting to be checked in, so that gave me time to check things out and listen to how nice the person was who was checking each of them in and than myself. It was a wonderful positive experience. The pool area is updated and clean and nice. The parking was easy and close to my room. The view was utterly amazing of the beautiful mountains and at night the stars were very visible because of the dark sky’s. They have a fire pit too. The room was updated and clean and a good size, very nice. I went down for breakfast at 6:45 but they don’t serve it till 7, but the really nice server opened the door a little early and let everyone in and didn’t make us feel like we put her out by showing up before it was open that was a very nice touch and a pleasant surprise from what happens in higher end snobbish hotels and resorts. All in all I recommend this Lodge it was a peaceful and restful experience. Happy travels till next time.

A lovely place to stay. The room was clean, it was not noisy and the views were amazing. The breakfast in the morning was ordered and the waitress was very friendly. The hotel is pet friendly, big plus. I would come back for sure.

We had a great time staying here. It is nothing fancy, but clean and great views. We woke up Saturday morning to a Mariachi Band, which was an added treat. Everyone was hanging out on the front walkway, kind of corny, but a good time.
They allow pets although we left Bert and Tulip home for the weekend. There is a much newer place next door, but they were full, but we were very happy with this choice. This pace is not in the downtown area of Tombstone, but just a short five minute drive.

Okay, so, «as good as it gets» can be misconstrued it seems based on reviews. I loved this place and feel that, considering you are in Tombstone, population, what, 1200, this is exactly as good as it gets. for me. and for me i will take a little local flavor, supporting something different, over a cookie cutter chain any day of the week. that’s me.
so, we did not encounter any bugs. the room was clean as was the bathroom. the swinging doors were, well, yeah, it’s tombstone, if my kids were younger they would have loved that touch.
and, speaking of local charm? the staff was awesome. the full breakfast, cooked to order and included in the cost of the room (2 eggs, juice, bacon, english muffin and coffee for me) was good (my spouse ordered french toast, and got one piece-​if you want two pieces of french toast i think you had to pay $ 1.25 more) was good, and the servers were totally entertaining. keep those two on staff-​they are the comedienne/​straight man of tombstone! total characters and seemed to been joying every minute of it. and, like in some old time move, i went out of the restaurant and around to the front desk and he came through from the restaurant and there he was at the desk.
me? i just got a kick out of this place. all that was missing were a couple of rockers on the front porch-​but the view from the benches was grand.

The Landmark Lookout is a decent hotel if you are visiting Tombstone. As you head towards town, it’s on the right (GPS got it wrong) up a hill just about a half mile or so from Boothill Cemetery. It’s an older hotel, but I found it clean and accommodating. It is great that it is pet-​friendly and for $ 10 pet fee, it’s a good deal (I had one small dog). We stayed on the ground floor near the back of the hotel. The room is definitely dated and small but clean and comfortable. The hotel has free wifi which worked fine. The room featured 2 queen beds, a fridge, desk/​chairs and swinging wooden doors leading to the bathroom area. The sink and counter is separate from the toilet and you have a coffee maker there. I liked the blue mexican tile lining the walls. There is also some hangers if you want to hang anything. I like the fact that I was near the back where there is a pet walking area (some heathens did not pick up after their dogs, boo). There is a bit of noise from the road and motorcycles but the experienced traveler like me knows to download a white noise app on your phone and travel with ear plugs! The best part of the visit is the FREE sit down HOT cooked to order breakfast. The waitress Debbie was very nice and pleasant and the food was great. You just saved yourself about $ 20 on breakfast for 2 people alone and you don’t to deal with zoo animals at a serve-​yourself breakfast buffet. They also have fire pits which we didn’t use, but a nice touch. If you are looking for a clean, comfortable stay while you are in Tombstone, I recommend the Landmark Lookout!

This place was great. Nice friendly staff, took great care of us and our little dog.
The place was clean, the breakfast was great, and roasting marshmallows at night was fun.
Very easy to get to with plenty of parking on the backside of the Lodge allowing for amazing views of the Dragoon Mountains.

The good:
* Friendly staff
* easy access to town
* Relatively theme like décor
* quiet location overall, even next to the highway.
* OMG, a good, free sit down breakfast?!
The bad:
* The décor ~ it’s actually better outside then inside; the saloon door in my room kinda get into my way going to water closet.
* Any loud noise will pass the walls ~ especially if you neighbor have a 6 hours argument starting from around 8 to 2 am … That woman scream and crying is something else. Glad she’s not my waifu ~ and I don’t care how hot she might had been.
The ugly:
Beside the couple/​family got really ugly next door? This place is pretty great.
Conclusion:
This hotel would be a good home base for the region; You have Bisbee only 25 mins away and the Mexican border about 35 mins… and yeah, Town of tombstone too.
It’s pretty comfie overall. Very likely stay there again if I travel to that region again.

Checked in, found bedbugs, checked out.
I was really surprised because this place got so many good reviews, and maybe it was a fluke in my room, but they were definitely there behind the back of the mattress. :(
Update ¹¹⁄₁₇
The owner called me to apologize and confirm they are taking care of the problem and they have never had that problem until they heard it from me.

Very nice and clean hotel. The view is fantastic. Don’t be discouraged by the outer appearance as it’s meant to fit in with the theme of Tombstone.

The made-​to-​order continental breakfast was great. The gentleman that waited on us worked his butt off. The room was okay. Our only issues in the room were bugs and geckos and dirt in the corners. The pool was disappointing because there were large black beetles and scorpions floating all over the pool. I know even if the hotel sprayed that there would still be bugs. Overall an okay place to stop off overnight.

Great place to stay. Clean rooms, pool, fire pits, and a full order breakfast. Awesome sunset view over the valley. Kid and pet friendly. You are in Tombstone… not the Ritz!

Stopped here on a whim ended up staying for three days it’s a friendly place the free breakfast was good the food server was very friendly loved her, wife and I had a great time there

We chose this hotel because it is pet-​friendly and got good reviews on
. We were so glad we did! We loved it.
If you are expecting modern and luxurious, keep looking. But if you like historic and quirky, this is the place for you. It’s on the older side, but VERY well-​maintained. Our room was like a step back into the 50’s, with western-​movie type décor (but not tackily so) and gorgeous Mexican tile in the bathroom. It was spotlessly clean and everything worked perfectly. The beds (two queens) were very comfortable.
The view was absolutely spectacular, with nothing to block it as the Lodge sits on a hill. Just to the right is Boothill Graveyard — pretty cool but not so close as to be creepy.
The grounds are neatly manicured with desert landscaping and kept very clean. In front of the office are a couple of gas fire pits which they not only kindly light for you, but bring marshmallows to for roasting.
When I say pet-​friendly, I don’t mean, «oh, we guess you can bring your dog, if you must.» They keep Milkbones on hand in the office and pass them out like it’s doggy Halloween. There are dog cleanup bag stations posted around the site. Our little dog Kate and the three others we saw during our visit were fawned over by staff.
And then there’s the breakfast. All I can say is, wow. It’s included with your stay, but it’s not a stale Danish and rubbery eggs breakfast like other hotels. They have a breakfast room where you sit down and are served your breakfast, which you choose from a menu. When we stayed, you were allowed your choice of five items; I had oatmeal, English muffin, hardboiled eggs, coffee and apple juice. Other choices were biscuits & gravy, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, fresh fruit, muffins, toast, OJ… too many to remember or list here. You could also get eggs to order for a small additional fee.
The one and only thing I did not like was the parking. It was necessarily hilly, because of the site; a little cramped; and all the doors are on the other side of the building from the parking lot, so you have to walk all the way around the building to get from your car to your door. Nice for noise control but not so pleasant when you have a lot of bags and it’s kind of chilly.

What a cute place!!! My hunny and I decided to do a mini vacation down to Tombstone this past weekend and good olé hotwire decided on this hotel for us when we picked «pay now and see where you are staying later» option. It was so worth it. We learned that it was the first «commercial» hotel that was built way back in the day and it had the look and feel of the western days. The room was clean and very spacious with a huge king bed and a shower to die for. Upon checking in, our lovely front desk let us know about the fire pit and how we could roast marshmallows later, (which we did) the 10% discount we received at the Lonestar Steakhouse for staying there, (which we used) and how we also received a full hot breakfast in the morning that was made to order (which we loved). The only thing we did not like was that in the morning, when everyone woke up, we could hear them as the pipes were making all kinds of noises and we knew when everyone was showering, using the bathroom, etc. But it will not deter us from staying here again should we ever come back to visit Tombstone! Seriously, a great little place with friendly people. Check it out!

Clean comfortable room. The breakfast was terrific.

This is a great little hotel. I’ve styled there twice now (the first time in April 2013). The location is perfect. It is a 5 minute drive or 10 minute walk into town from the hotel. The staff is friendly — they have helped us plan our attractions each time. The rooms are cosy and clean.

The Mrs. and I just spent a 4 day weekend in Tombstone and Bisbee. We stayed at the Lookout Lodge and enjoyed our stay there as much as we enjoyed seeing the sights in town. The staff went out of their way to make sure we had an enjoyable visit. The room, while not fancy, was very cozy and comfortable and very clean. The free, cooked to order breakfast beats any other free breakfast I’ve had at other big name hotels. A splendid view from our room, and the hotel is right across the street from historic Boot Hill. The town of Tombstone is actually within walking distance. Several of the restaurants in town give you a discount if you tell them where you are staying. After a day of sight seeing, you can go back to the hotel and the desk clerk will start a fire in the fire pit for you and you can sit outside and roast (hotel supplied) marshmellows before turning in for the night. All in all, this was one of the most relaxing, enjoyable trips we’ve taken, and we travel a lot.

I have to say this hotel exceeded my expectations. I travel a lot and stay in everythiing from luxury international hotels to mom and pop B&B’s. This hotel in not fancy; not particularly impressive as far as room and ammenties go BUT, it is clean; the beds and pillows are comfortable; and the breakfast is really nice. Cooked to order breakfast included in the price of the room is unheard of in most places! Located 5 minutes or so from the historic area of tombstone, it is a good value! I’d stay here again without any hesitation.

What a dump !
Booked a 2 night reservation for myself, wife and 2 kids just last weekend. Looked pretty good from the pics on their web site. The reality was different.
I hesitantly checked in and within 5 minutes after finding suspicious hairs in the bathroom of my equally dirty room. I checked out. They charged me for the first night ($ 145.00). I wasn’t thrilled about their insistence I do so, The staff were rude and took it very personally that I did not find their facility to my liking. The hit to my wallet was a small price to pay to be rid of that place. Worst hotel I almost spent the night in.
Booked a less expensive room at the Holiday Inn Express right next door. The room was great and their staff was even better. Had a great breakfast every morning and the kids liked the pool. Thumbs up to the Holiday Inn Express.
Stay away from the Best Western Lookout Lodge if you have any pride and value your marriage.

Internet connection was not useable. Not only in my room but in the rooms of the six other people in my group. Floor and bathroom was filthy. Coffee machine filthy.
If you are thinking of going to Tombstone for your next vacation, stay home or probablty more accurately stay in your trailer home.
