We had to take our luggage up a flight of stairs. My 78 year old mother cannot do that so there was a worker there that assisted. This is mostly tailored to tour companies. It was one of the last nights of the season so food was near the end.

The facility sits on a gorgeous piece of property with a river running behind it, a walking path, and an education center that can be used by young and old to study the surrounding area. Our room was old, blinds were tattered, it was however clean.

Mediocre Stay

It’s an old place, heating wasn’t working, and the fan in the bathroom was obnoxious. Some of the power outlets didn’t work, and when we told them about the issues, they asked us to wait a couple of hours.

Loved being on the river! Front desk said we were on 1st floor but our room was actually on 2nd floor. We didn’t have any hot water at 8:30 in the morning to shower. Nice lobby area but restaurant/bar was only open till 9:00. We ended up having to go elsewhere to eat a late dinner. Overall it was a good place and would stay there again

Good location, lacking in character

Decent lodge with all the facilities required but was a little dark and also a lot of road noise from a nearby bridge as well as noise from the railway. The restaurant was decent food but because of the large groups and open plan style did not feel particularly cosy / intimate as a restaurant.

Terrible TV /Wifi service. Food is way overpriced, but not terrible. Breakfast is lackluster at best. No fridge or microwave in rooms. Denali was closed due to fires. Onsite hotel staff offered no other trail options. We searched for a few hours to find something. Hotel needs a good concierge.

Poor quality both facility and service

The lobby of the main building and their ads were good looking to impress you to book. But the actual room was significantly inferior. Also there was no refrigerator in the room. The service was poor. Our main reason for travel was to view northern light. We put our name on calling list if there was northern light during middle of night. There was only one day and they didn't call us. Our trip was wasted. We have to go again spending thousands of dollar. They said we have to put our name every night bit the receptionist didn't tell us that. If we were told, we would have done this. Don't recommend this hotel to anyone.
