However, during the summer, a night at a hotel can not only be hard to come by, but it can also be very costly. So, if you're looking for a nice place to stay and aren't concerned with all of the "extras", we have a list of The Top 5 Best Bozeman Hotels On A Budget.

To determine the hotels for our list, we decided to put in some random dates in July over at Expedia and see what hotels/motels were charging.  To be considered for the list, a location must be under 300 dollars a night, and have a rating of "Good" or better.

Keep in mind, that certain dates might be more, and room availability could be limited.
