First time at McKinley Village in several trips to Denali. The location is 7 mi. away from Denali which requires a shuttle to & from Denali Village. I prefer staying in Denali where everything is within walking distance. We departed McKinley Village Lodge on 9/8/12 early in the morning for Denali Park Tour. This was the first time that I... More

Like many other posters, we stayed here as part of a Royal Caribbean cruisetour. The hotel consists of a very large lobby area, with a gift store and restaurant. The rooms are located in several smaller buildings around the property. The room was pretty basic, nothing special. We had double beds with cheap mattresses. No air conditioning but it did... More

Stayed here overnight on a post cruise land tour. Rooms were pretty basic but very clean and comfortable. Lobby and restaurant were very nice, large deck overlooking river. Food very pricy in restaurant, but it's very pricy everywhere in Alaska.

This hotel was decent compared to other options near Denali National Park. The main lodge with the gift shop and restaurant is beautiful and there is a nice deck with a fireplace out on the back, facing the river. That said, the other lodges (where the guest rooms are located) were not as impressive and the rooms were just ok.... More

My trip was a wonderful experience. The Lodge was very nicely run by courteous and helpful people who did everything to make my stay comfortable. It is a beautiful place to be. I was happy with my room although a room more toward the river running directly behind the building would have been better. I did not ask to be... More

Tour guide booked this lodging and we were very happy with his choice. The lobby is wonderful with a huge fireplace and seating..Gift shop and restaurant were also nice. Would stay there again. The front desk was very helpful with anything we wanted. They prepared sack lunches for the tour of Denali. I would supplement this lunch with a few... More

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Loved the fact we were right on the river and cracked the window at night so we could enjoy the sound of the rushing water. Exceptionally nice gift shop and a very short drive to the park entrance. The hotel looks a bit rustic and I think that's to be expected due... More

Our stay at this hotel was booked through our Royal Caribbean cruise, so I can't comment on the price I paid for lodging.. The hotel is in a great location if you are interested in going into Denali National Park. It's just down the road. The room wasn't huge, but it was just enough space. No A/C, but they did... More

We stayed here 2 nights as part of our RC Cruise Tour. We had the river view which was great, you hear the river at night, very soothing, and you can look out and see the aurora if it is active and sky is clear. They have wake up calls for when the aurora is active, but from what we... More

I booked at the last minute and this was one of the few hotels that still had rooms. When I checked in, I asked for a river view room and was not given one. However, afterwards when talking to other guests, I saw that they had been giving river view rooms, even though they had never requested them. My room... More
