Just an average hotel, but pretty expensive for what you get. We had a promo and payed 99 dollars per night and stayed 2 nights. We had a room on the first floor, parkinglot view, we didn't mind. Room was clean, and nice. Lobby was nice, great view! Food expensive, as all the food you can get in Denali by... more

Beds and bedding were fair. Sheets were paper thin and the fitted sheet barely stayed on mattress. Room was clean and had great shower pressure. If I were to visit again I would try the Princess Lodge. The lodge and restaurant were very comfortable and I enjoyed the dinner menu in the restaurant. I stayed here as part of a... more

Stayed one night with son and husband during a celebrity landtour. The lodge is composed of a communal big lodge, where reception, gift shop and restaurant are, and two buildings where the rooms are - one big building, long and narrow, two stories tall,called building no. 3, and another one, much smaller, building no. 4. We got the shortest stick... more

Just returned from a weeklong trip to Alaska that included a one-night stay at the Grande Denali lodge. We were 4 adults and stayed in cabin #3. As opposed to some of the reviewers on this website, we had a pleasant experience. Checked in at 6 and checked out at 10 the next day. The room was clean (nothing fancy)... more

We booked our reservations with the Grande 3 months in advance, completely paid 3 weeks in advance, received a reservation confirmation and receipt for our one nite stay at the lodge. Room rate $320/nite was a little steep but we looked forward to the view from this newly built lodge on the hill overlooking Denali. We arrived in the rain... more

We arrived to the Grande Denali Lodge after departing Fairbanks via The Wilderness Express train with a short transfer via motorcoach to get us to the Lodge after a long day in Denali National Park. The Lodge is lovely, and the rooms are decent sized with comfortable beds (my travel companion likes a firm bed, I prefer one on the... more

2 nights here on a Celebrity cruisetour. If you get a room with a view of the Nenana River, lucky you. If you don't (and we didn't) you get a lovely view of the parking lot out back, complete with dumpster and tour buses disgorging passengers and baggage all day. If you're up to exposing yourself to the traffic out... more

I too booked a "grand view" room 4 months in advance ($700 for 2 nites) and when I checked in, was given a view of the parking lot. However, I "fussed" at the desk, showed them my confirmation of a "grand view" room and was eventually given a room with a view. I think I had some luck because I... more

We booked a two day trip to Denali National Park through the Alaska Railroad. So our stay at the Grande was part of our package. It was a wonderful experience. We were there the last weekend of August, 2006. We had our name put on a list for a wake up call if the Northern Lights were visible. The first... more
