Great place for the price. We booked this as a romantic getaway/40th birthday gift. We think we got the best bang for your buck. You're right across the street from the alpine coaster and a 10-15 minute walk to the downtown area of Leavenworth. Our hotel came with amenities that others did not. Staff, food, and rooms were all amazing. Would highly recommend. Can't wait to go back.

The breakfast was very good with fresh eggs, sausage. They even had oat milk and almond milk so someone lactose intolerant could enjoy the fine selection of cereal. The coffee was very good. Real china! Pet friendly with treats and doggie bags. Nice balconies. The jets on the hot tub weren't working, but it was nice and warm.
