  Hotel was clean and right off I90 for quick access. We booked last minute and was able to get a top floor, extra spacious double queen room. The room had two long counters with sinks, so lots of room. Two A/Cs, pullout couch and table. Lots of space for a family. Unfortunately, no elevators, so you do have to carry your stuff up stairs. Breakfast had blueberries, watermelon, blackberries and raspberries. Yum!! Real, fresh fruit over unripened bananas and apples is great! Bacon, eggs, potatoes, big dish of oatmeal and the usual items. Fornt desk girl at check in was super nice. Morning front desk guy was also super nice and got me a cold bottle of water and turned the AC in the breakfast room when it was pretty muggy. My only suggestion for the front desk was vinyl pull down black out shades and true black out curtains. Was immediately woken up @500am to the sunrise. Always looking for a dark room when staying over night. Would stay again if in the area.

  We have stayed in many Best Western Hotels Across the US! Snow Cap Lodge Cle Elum is by far the best! Service is top notch, they go the extra mile with little touches down to a fun bow on our TP! They give it a 5 star touch! Staff makes us feel like family! Manager Lisa Cook and her staff are the best we have ever experienced!! Property, rooms ect are impeccably maintained! The breakfast is down home huge and yummy! Fresh berries! This is our new home away from home! Tim and Julie (Montgomery) Roseberg

  I stayed at the Best Western Snowcap Lodge as an alternative option during the WMEA All‑State Solo & Ensemble weekend, since every hotel in Ellensburg was completely booked out. For that purpose, it worked well enough — not a standout property, but a clean, comfortable, and reliable place to stay when availability is tight. The hotel is located in Cle Elum, about a short drive from Ellensburg, making it a practical backup when the main event hotels are full. The area is quiet, parking is easy, and there are a few restaurants and conveniences nearby, which helps when you’re coming in late or heading out early for performances. The rooms themselves are average but functional: clean, decently sized, and equipped with the basics like a microwave, fridge, and good lighting. It’s not a luxury stay, but it’s comfortable enough for a night or two, especially if your main focus is the competition rather than the hotel experience. Staff are friendly in a straightforward, small‑town way, and check‑in is quick and simple. Breakfast is typical for this category — nothing fancy, but enough variety to get you started before heading to the festival. The property is quiet, and with only two floors, it’s easy to get in and out without hassle. Overall, Best Western Snowcap Lodge is an average but dependable option when Ellensburg is sold out for WMEA events. It won’t impress you, but it provides a clean room, a good night’s rest, and a convenient base when the closer hotels aren’t available.
