gorgeous location but inconvenient without a car
This is the most gorgeous location of any hotel in the McKinley Park area. However, it is quite a long, steep, muddy hike to get up to the hotel from the town / restaurants below. Dining options are very limited at the Lodge and the hotel's shuttle bus only runs every hour, ending by 8 or 9PM. This is quite early given that Alaska has long hours of daylight and tours often don't end until late. I would only recommend staying here if you have a car

The staff were so polite and helpful. They proactively reached out us a number of time, by text, prior to our arrival. The day we were arriving by train I texted them to let them know that our train was running an hour and a half behind schedule and inquired about dinner options. They quickly responded and offered to make a reservation at their restaurant. Our dinner was delicious and the sunset view was beautiful.

First off, Denali is about 100 miles away. The rooms are old and musty. The bar was super expensive. It was $14 for a bowl of vegetable soup. Staff was friendly. Entire place needs a facelift.
