A hotel is an establishment that provides lodging on a short-term basis. Hotels often provide a number of additional guest services such as a restaurant, a swimming pool, child care. Some hotels have conference services and encourage groups to hold conventions and meetings at their location. The cost and quality of hotels are usually relatively indicative of the range and type of services available. Due to the enormous increase in tourism worldwide, during the last decades of the 20th century common standards, especially those of smaller establishments, have improved considerably. For the sake of greater comparability, various hotel rating systems have been introduced, with the one to five stars classification being the most commonly used. Basic hotel accommodation consisting of a room with a bed, a cupboard, a small table and a washstand only have largely been replaced by rooms with en-suite bathrooms. Other features many travellers want today are a TV, a telephone, an alarm clock, a small refrigerator and coffee maker.

Montana is Big Sky country. The nickname is no empty cliché: the entire state is blessed with a huge blue roof that both dwarfs the beautiful countryside and complements it perfectly. A magnificent northernmost cap for the US Rockies, this is a region of snowcapped summits, turbulent rivers, spectacular glacial valleys, heavily wooded forests and sparkling blue lakes, at their most dramatic in Glacier National Park . By contrast, the eastern two-thirds is high prairie: sun-parched in summer and wracked by icy blizzards each winter. Preconceptions of a desolate land populated by cowpokes are soon shattered: each of Montana's small cities has its own proud identity. The university and sawmill community of Missoula, for example, possesses a high-culture feel absent from the heavily Irish, copper-mining town and union stronghold of Butte, while elegant state capital Helena still harks back to its prosperous gold mining years, and Bozeman, just to the south, is one of the hippest mountain towns in the US.

A key plank of army strategy was to starve the Native Americans into submission: ''For the sake of a lasting peace let them [professional hunters] kill, skin and sell until the buffalo are exterminated. Then your prairies can be covered by the speckled cow and the festive cowboy,'' declared General Philip Sheridan. By the late 1870s the buffalo were almost gone, and most of Montana had been cleared for settlement. The speckled cow and festive cowboy were not in for an easy time. The horrendous winter of 1886 wiped out many herds, and the ''sodbusters'' who planted wheat in the wake of bankrupt ranchers often fared little better. Plagues of grasshoppers, droughts, falling wheat prices and erosion of the topsoil caused farms to fail everywhere in the 1920s, during which time Montana was the only state to record a population decline. Wheat has since made a revival, and now, with lumbering and coal mining, forms the base of Montana's economy. Tourism is currently the state's second biggest earner, though, apart from skiing, the harsh climate generally restricts the season to the months between June and September.

Considering Montana's size and sparse population, transportation connections are not bad. Greyhound and regional bus companies like Intermountain (north from Butte and Missoula to Glacier) and Rimrock serve towns on I-90 and I-15. Delta Air lines and Northwest offer the most flights to Montana, landing in seven towns. Amtrak trains cross the north, stopping east and west of Glacier National Park without making it easier to see the park itself. Western Montana, in particular, is great cycling territory; the Adventure Cycling organization, whose national headquarters are in Missoula, can provide special maps. However, the best way to get around this huge state is by car, with practically every interstate exit in the west leading to areas of mountain solitude, interesting landmarks or small communities. Montana's ''Basic Rule'' used to state that, as long as you drive in a ''reasonable and prudent manner,'' you're free to go at whatever speed you wish. However, much to the chagrin of locals, Montana now has posted speed limits, usually of 75mph. Can't find it here? Try a search with the power of Google:   Web Hotelswithall.com
