I stayed at the Mineral Palace during our Ski For Light event January 22-26 and I can't say enough about the helpful, friendly staff. Karolea Schnabel was extremely courteous and easy to communicate and plan with while booking the event and everyone at the front desk followed her lead. The doormen/bellhops/valet staff were always welcoming and busy helping me or other guests with luggage or any other need. The bar staff always had a smile and I felt comfortable ordering a beer or a soda while sitting at the bar. They'd even take a picture with us when we asked.
The hotel rooms were very clean and a great place to come home to and relax after a busy day. We found a treat of some kind every evening left by the hotel staff.
While eating at the restaurant, I found myself very pleased with the attentive waitstaff and excellent food. The manager of the restaurant even came by my table to ask if everything was okay.
I didn't gamble but watched some friends play blackjack. The dealer was kind and patient explaining the game to new players.
Overall, this is an exceptional place to stay in Deadwood! The combination of the wonderful staff, attractive and clean rooms, first rate restaurant makes this my number one choice!
