Editorial Review for Madonna Inn – by Susan Blue
In Short
The flamboyant pink-and-white inn's exterior is a roadside attraction in and of itself, but the 109 individually themed rooms are equally eye-popping and grand. The most popular room, the Caveman, is typically booked months in advance, but a few other rooms also feature the popular cave-like stone interior walls and waterfall shower. Other themes include Swiss chalets, antique cars, safaris and pioneer cabins. Rooms have basic amenities like hair-dryers and soaps wrapped in pink foil.

My husband and I stayed at the Caveman Room (his idea) the first year we started dating. We ended up getting engaged there two years ago. We then had our Sunday brunch (after our wedding) there near the saloon last June. The brunch was delicious and the servers were friendly. Despite the PINK decor, this place is well-run and the food and service are professional. It's tons of fun and really romantic in its own strange way. I did NOT find the Caveman room musty at all. It was extremely clean and well-outfitted. We have been back several times with our in-laws and enjoyed it every time! P.S. Get a look at the waterfall urinals downstairs in the main building if time permits... P.P.S. The rock/waterfall rooms are the best in our opinions.
Pros: Unique, fun, high-quality
Cons: A little pricey for the average Joe

Surprised my boyfriend for his birthday w/ a Friday night stay in the all-rock Caveman Room. What a cool room! I only wish I had a picture of his face when we opened the door - like a little kid at the entrance of Disneyland... This room probably isn't for everyone, but we loved it - everything from the waterfall shower to the clubs hanging on either side of the bed to the "waterfall wall". There was also an an unexpected large flat-screen TV w/ cable/comp HBO & 2 super soft robes - though my boyfriend didn't want to wear, since they're PINK - whatever! There is a bit of a musty smell in the room which didn't bother us one bit - it actually fits with the ambience of the room - sort of makes it more believable that you're in a cave. There are windows that open & air conditioning (or maybe just a fan? We didn't turn it on) if you need relief. The room was definitely pricey, thus the one night stay. Dinner @ the Gold Rush steak house was delicious (French filet mignon for him; halibut for me). The waitress provided a giant "Happy Birthday" balloon & complimentary chocolate cake - luckily for my boyfriend, the waiters don't sing & make a big production, or he would've crawled under the table. Oh, and the live band was very nice - very cute older couples cutting the rug all night - too sweet. Had breakfast @ the Copper Cafe (turkey & broccoli omelet for him; 2 eggs, bacon for me) - also very tasty. Restaurants were overpriced, but yummy. Wish they would bring down the prices a bit. Overall, we had a wonderful, fun time. We would love to come back, but maybe during the "off season" or during the week...
