Jackson Hotels

Find a hotel in Jackson, Wyoming. Perhaps the most famous town of the "Old West", Jackson has had its share of both attention and visitors. Featured in many movies, from John Wayne's Big Trail to Clint Eastwood's Any Which Way You Can, Jackson and its environs have appeared on the silver screen numerous times. Many Hollywood celebrities frequent the area in their down time, as well as presidents, politicians, diplomats, and royalty from around the world. First class amenities of all kinds exist here to accommodate such a crowd. Since so much glamour is associated with this rather small town, it's amazing that it still retains so much of its old time charm. But residents call their home "The Last and Best of the Old West." It's hard to believe that less than 200 years ago, the only people here were Indians like the Blackfeet, Gros Ventres, Nez Perce, Shoshone, Crows, Bannocks, and Flatheads, and they only came in the summer.

It has only been over the past thirty years or so that Jackson has become a hot spot for tourists. But the community has a long history of hospitality, from the trapper days to the homestead days, and current residents hold this tradition sacred. Its close proximity to Yellowstone National Park and world class ski resort make this town a stop for numerous adventures. Although it is surrounded by many scenic wonders, Jackson is most popular for the friendliness of the people who live here.
