The room was basic, clean with a TV. Had a guest laundry (after 12 days was really appreciated) Bar was well stocked and we had several meals, prime rib, hamburger and was well satisfied. Would use again. more

Having read a bunch or reviews before going I was skeptical at best about the lodge. However, I was surprised. The lobby is beautiful, the staff extremely helpful and friendly. The room we had was hadnicap room (no idea why). It was basic but clean (only 10 channels). You could tell that they had just opened as they were cleaning... more

Truly a disaster. A new property that looks completely run-down once you leave the very lovely lobby and restaurant. Carpets are stained and the place is depressing. We were given a room that was obviously not cleaned--hair in the bed and garbage on the floor. We were then moved to a "housekeeping-approved" room after 20 mts. This one had a... more

My mom and I just returned from a cruisetour in Alaska, and our worst experience through the entire trip was this lodge. Upon our arrival we realized that we were on the 1st floor with a view of the parking lot, specifically a couple of cars. We were completely stranded on top of this mountain except for the local shuttle... more

One has to consider the area around Denali park when reading negative reviews about Grande Denali Lodge. This area of the US is VERY expensive. Gas was over $5/gallon in this area. Dinner at Rose's diner was $60 for family of 4 (but the food was good). The lodge is basically a very average "motel" type place w/ average rooms... more

Loved the room, the view, and the quiet. The room was spotless, but the bottom rungs of a table next to the elevator were dusty. A fellow traveler said his window was streaky. So...housekeeping is not perfect. Front desk was friendly and dealt with massive numbers of bus and train folks trying to get settled in. Don't know how they... more

We stayed in this hotel for 1 night. After several nights in a cabin, we decided to splurge and stay here. The hotel is average in all respects - room, service, etc. except the price which is outrageous. It's located in a cool spot perched above entrance to Denali. However, if you want a view of the entrance from your... more

This was a gorgeous hotel with stunning views of the park, pitched high on a mountain side. It was, however, a walk from town and super expensive. Not only were the rooms expensive but the food in their restaurant was about 30% more than anywhere else I ate the whole trip. In addition, they had the gall to charge $40... more

Looks Great, but not so nice! we checked in and got the WORST room in the Lodge- overlooking the bus pick up area, with the parking lot view.....it was noisy and filled with bus fumes. Did I mention there had to be 500 people in the lobby when we checked in, terrible. So we asked to change rooms, and they... more
