Hotel Details
645 Cabela Drive, Sidney, Nebraska 69162-3047 United States

Hotel Overview

Near the crossroads of Interstate 80 and Highway 385, the Best Western Plus Sidney Lodge, Sidney, Nebraska, sets a welcoming tone with rustic, lodge-style comfort, with a complimentary hot breakfast, an indoor heated pool and hot tub, a fitness center, a 24-hour business center, high-speed Wi-Fi, and rooms with plush bedding, a microwave, a refrigerator, and a flat-screen TV.

The setting puts a frontier-fort museum and a creekside walk close by, a base for outdoor adventures and small-town charm. A county fair, an Oktoberfest, and a gold-rush celebration mark the local seasons.

Sidney sits on the wide-open plains of the Nebraska panhandle, where Interstate 80 meets the road north to the Black Hills, a railroad town with deep frontier roots. Born as a rowdy outfitting post in the Black Hills gold-rush days, the town preserves that history at the old Fort Sidney, while Lodgepole Creek and the surrounding short-grass prairie offer quiet country under enormous western skies.
