I have stayed at the Motel 6 on the main drag in Ely (no kitchen) and it's cheap. For restaurants, I like the Jailhouse Casino and Ramada Inn & Copper Queen Casino - Ely, NV. There are also the usual fast food places in town. |

I live in Ely but stayed in the Hotel Nevada on Aultman Street before moving here. It's a great place with plenty of parking (even for big trucks/trailer/motorhomes) - lots of character and really friendly people. It has a decent restaurant and 2 floors of gaming with the only live gaming in Ely. The rooms are clean but not fancy and are priced very reasonably. The place has so much character, nothing like a chain motel, I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else. My room at the Hotel Nevada did not have a kitchen but there are some nicer rooms in the hotel that may have a kitchen - just call and ask.

I haven't eaten or stayed at the Jailhouse but I've heard that they have the best steaks in town (right across the street from Hotel Nevada). I have eaten at the Ramada Inn/Copper Queen and I thought the restaurant was VERY dirty and don't plan on going back. |

Either way I'm kind of splitting hairs because Ely is such a small town and you're really never far from anything. |

I know the Elk Ridge has a kitchenette for rent, just not sure on durations.
775-289-2512 is the phone and addy is 1550 High St
I drive by it everyday.
and drop by CB Auto to see some nice bull elk mounts on the wall.

Sorry, I always took Hwy 50 to be the "main drag" in and out of town. But you are right about the town being small enough with nothing being far from anything. |
