Limited dining options; no breakfast dining offered during visit. Dinner prices are expensive. Lodge is a considerable distance from the Denali Park.

Unfortunately, our experience at Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge was overshadowed by extremely poor front desk service. Requests were routinely dismissed with a clear lack of concern for the guest experience. What was most disappointing was the attitude of the manager. He showed no interest whatsoever in resolving any issues. Instead of offering solutions or showing any flexibility, he remained rigid, unapproachable, and more focused on defending policies than on actually supporting guests. There was no sense of genuine hospitality—something you would expect, especially at a lodge known for its beautiful location. I had made reservations for three consecutive days under three separate bookings, as our plans kept changing. I specifically requested that we be allowed to stay in the same room for all three nights. Instead, we were forced to check out every day at 11 AM and then check back in again after 4 PM, causing needless inconvenience. The manager was completely unconcerned about the disruption and showed a dismissive, almost rude attitude toward our situation. We had hoped for a warm Alaskan welcome but left feeling frustrated and unheard. I would not recommend staying here unless significant improvements are made in how they treat their guests.

We were lucky with a great view of Denali on a clear afternoon. We had a standard 2 queen room and it was spacious and comfortable. There is no AC, but the window opened and there was a ceiling fan and a standing fan that made it confortable. We didn't eat at the restaurants, but they looked nice We did have breakfast atvthe coffee shop. Muffins and the breakfast sandwich were very good, as well as the coffee. Staff was friendly.

Very beautiful lodge with comfy beds. Worth the extra money to have a mountain view. Unfortunately for us, the Denali remained hidden from us.

We stayed here on 5/21. The room was clean and the views were beautiful. The staff was friendly. My issue is with overcharge of the room. I booked and prepaid through Expedia. When checking in, my card was billed for the room. When I brought this to their attention, instead of refunding, they charged my card again. I have now paid 3 times for 1 night stay. Every time I call, I’m told they are working on it. Almost 2 weeks later with no corrections made. Watch your room charges closely.

Terrible customer service at the front desk and restaurant. The restaurant was out of multiple items on the menu. The food was nothing great, but expensive. The gym is almost non-existent. No hot tub. No pool. Did I mention, terrible customer service! Truly, nasty attitudes.

Great Stay

The employees at the hotel were all very personable and helpful, especially Ashley. The lobby was very comfortable with a huge stone fireplace, furniture and large windows for viewing the scenery outside. Our room was comfortable, and had a perfect view of Mt McKinley. The only thing missing was a microwave in the room. It was very quiet. The hotel also had snowshoes and tubes for guests to use free of charge. We went snowshoeing one day on the trails around the property. The hotel is just a few minutes from the town and train station and has a free shuttle to both. The shuttle driver was very accommodating and always on time. There is a bistro open for dinner and a small coffee stand in the lobby with breakfast items for sale. There is another restaurant, but it wasn’t open for the season yet. A small gift shop had limited hours. The staff did call us during the night to let us know the northern lights were visible. We would stay here again.

Beautiful property with amazing views. Dining is a lil high for the quality of food. Still worth every moment and every bite. Was scouting for a wedding venue and it is still on the list albeit not at the top.
