“Great location for going on denali tour bus.”

Reviewed 9 May 2013

Shuttle will take you down hill to catch the tour bus. Didn't eat here so no review about the food. It was quiet and private. Got a good nights sleep. Used the coupon in Tour Saver Book, so we stayed 2 nights for the price of one. Their prices are about the same as other places around the park.

“Stay here for the views.”

Reviewed 24 April 2013

Ok first the good stuff.... Tremendous view if you are willing to pay extra for it. You twist up a winding mountain road to this beautiful resort perched on a cliff. We were checked in quickly and the front desk service was efficient and friendly. The resort is close to all of the tours. Now, not so good: restaurant service... More

“Good location but not for price”

Reviewed 2 February 2013

We stayed here 1 night with 3 other family friend couples. Booked rooms with out view because of price, but didn't expect that much of difference with out a view. Some what felt deceived. The location of the lodge is beautiful with grand views from lobby and outside. But for rooms with no views, we end up facing the parking... More

“Good hotel”

Reviewed 29 January 2013

This is an ok hotel, the room are not great but they're ok. The staff at reception is nice. The restaurant has nice food. Lovely view from the restaurant windows. I would just say that this hotel is way too expensive for what it is.

“Location amazing, rooms nothing special, limited dining menu”

Reviewed 30 November 2012

Stuff I loved: the location, views from the lobby, proximity to the park and Healy's main (only) drag, the cafe where I could get a latte. The rooms were noting special at all--felt like a budget hotel but we were paying more than budget prices. The restaurant--beautiful, but the variety was very limited and my friend had food allergies. The... More

“View is Fantastic!”

Reviewed 7 October 2012

The lodge is located overlooking a scenic area. The room was clean with lots of space. The restaurant had good food and great views. Overall I think this place was fantastic. It's a lodge not a five star hotel. It reflects Alaska - the rustic, natural beauty. You won't regret the stay!
