This hotel in Denali has the very location of all hotels, on a mountain overlooking the park. Great old charm, lots of wood and timber inside, excellent restaurant, and a great, young, energetic and pleasant staff. The shuttle bus gives great transportation to all relevant points. Cannot thank them enough for a wonderful vacation there.

8/10 Very good

The dinners in the lodge were pricey but excellent. Most people staying there arrive by bus and parking is limited if you have a car. Our room had a great view of mountains and the river. Room was comfortable.

Jane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were very happy with our choice of booking this lodge. We loved the stunning view, the proximity to Denali visitors center, and the responsiveness and kindness of the service staff. It was nice to be picked up for our Tandra wilderness bus tour from the hotel. The hotel provides shuttle service, but we didn’t need it as we had a rental car.
Ephrat, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Denali in the fall

The service was amazing, met at the train station and handed our room keys-since they had already checked us in. the room was spacious and clean. On site dining at Alpenglow restaurant was delicious. We stayed on the last night of the season and it would have been easy to let service slide. Appreciated the wake up call option to view the northern lights!
James, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was amazing. Dinner was fantastic. The view was spectacular.
Shirley, 1-night trip

Angelique, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were very pleased with our stay. The room was comfortable and the staff was great. The only disappointment was the time it took for the shuttle to leave the train station to get to the lodge. Every other hotel shuttle was gone long before we left. Maybe due to the large number of people who needed to be checked in.
