I stayed here on my way up north with my kids for a baby shower. Our room very on the inside and near the pool and hot tub area. There was also a little game room there too. Kids played in pool, which they thought was cold. They also played in the hot tub while I lounged and read a... more

Stayed in this hotel about 15 years ago and we did not notice any improvements and it's only become older and outdated. The pool was closed and so was the restaurant (a fee nacho bar was part of their advertisement) and this happened to us the last time we stayed there. The rooms were smelly and the beds and pillows... more

We stayed here one night on our way to Mackinac Island. When you first pull up, it looks kind of old and dumpy, but in this case, looks are very deceiving. Inside, it is very clean and comfortable. The desk clerk told us it was an old Holiday Inn that had been bought and refurbished. There are two floors of... more

Stayed in hotel on Aug 2, 2009 in room with two queen beds - with a view on auditorium and indoor pool. It was little bit strange since no fresh air available when window is open. Room and bathroom were clean, tv, iron and hairdryer available. Hi Speed wireless internet available free of charge. Pool Towels were provided, continental breakfast... more

It is old and outdated. It smells and is superficially clean. The hot tub did not work. It was cool and no jets powered up. Most of all, I was bothered by the comments made by staff about guests behind their backs. I sat in the lobby quite awhile waiting for my colleague to arrive and witnessed how much they... more

The Alpine Lodge was a Holiday Inn when I was a kid. It's probably been a bunch of other chains over the years as well. It also seems the hotel, aside from the name, hasn't changed much in all that time. The lobby and atrium are the unchanged (including a Ms Pacman game!), the pool, hottub and sauna are the... more

Management response from

Just a note to clarify this guests thoughts regarding the Alpine Lodge property. The ownership has spent several hundred thousand dollars in upgrades to this property. Not only in bedding but also in wall and floor covering as well as granite vanities. Our large atrium has been recarpeted, our fountain and pool upgraded and our spa refinished with upgraded heaters....

I traveled to Gaylord for a Friday overnight with a bunch of people from our church who were all picking up our kids from a nearby choir camp Saturday morning. I had stayed at the Alpine Lodge years ago and was less than impressed, so I booked a $116 room at the Gaylord Holiday Inn Express. Well, turns out everybody... more

The hotel wasn't all bad. It depends on what your purpose is for staying in Gaylord. My husband and I went up for snowmobiling. I did forget to request a room with an outside door so we could just head to our sleds. We had an interior room that had a door to the atrium where the pool is. That... more
