About this property
Welcome to High Plains Inn
Located in Newell, SD, High Plains Inn offers a straightforward lodging option suitable for visitors interested in sightseeing and getting around the area. This property functions as a hotel, extended stay hotel, inn, lodge, and motel, providing a range of accommodations to meet different travel needs. Its 3.8 rating based on 24 reviews reflects generally positive but varied guest experiences.
The facilities emphasize practical amenities such as free Wi-Fi, free parking, air conditioning, and accessibility features, while lacking provisions like breakfast services, a pool, fitness center, or business center.

Rapid City Regional Airport is approximately a one hour and ten minute drive away by car, providing access for those arriving from outside the region.
