Wonderful location. Great place to stay close to the national park. There are food trucks to provide eating options.
4.1
rooms were on the 2nd floor.
overlooked the Nenana River which was just Awesome.
they have 2 food trucks to order food from.
there is another hotel set up across the road that you can order food from.
this hotel is very close to Denali National Park entrance.
4.1
Easy check in and nice to know manager was available on site for emergencies. Parking lot had multiple food trucks for convenience and dining options. Room was clean with clear views of the water, would definitely recommend for shorter Denali trips.
4.1
We stayed for one night. Our room had a balcony overlooking the river. It would have been nice to stay more days but our schedule was tight.

Very nice place to stay in Denali.

Room had stink of sewer
4.1
This was our most expensive stay during our whole trip in Alaska but our least favorite. The location was great as it was close to Denali national park. There was also nice trails nearby and we even got to see a moose on one of the trails. The rooms were clean but no fridge or microwave. There was a microwave in the store that we could use but not until 9 am. Also, wifi was only included for the first 30 minutes and then you would have to pay for longer. Also the shower would get cold pretty quickly.
4.1
Room was very clean and comfortable. Price $300 for two beds, much less than resort across the highway. Fills up depending on cruise bookings.
4.1
This place was fantastic. Conveniently located to the National Park, and close enough to restaurants and shopping without being in the middle of things. Lovely view of the river and woods, with rooms that were clean and cute. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We had an excellent stay and would recommend it to anyone!
4.1
The views are amazing and staff was incredibly helpful. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. The Thai food truck was delicious and general store had a good selection.

The view from the room right on the river is Beautiful!
4.1
The front desk was friendly and the location convenient to Denali National Park. Our balcony overlooked the river. BUT there was no hot water for our entire stay - finally broke down and took the coldest shower EVER! Also, the train goes by at 4:30 every morning and sounds its horn long and loud. That combined with the tour buses parked and idling directly outside our building for an hour loading passengers, and the neighboring room of people who barked and howled half the night (literally) made it hard to get any rest. I don’t like to leave negative reviews and would have addressed these issues but the office has limited hours (we left at 10 a.m. and it was closed).
4.1
The property was very nice. Area was stunning. Internet options were pricey as well as the laundry facility. At check in the gal talked very fast and was hard to understand. She said we had instruction in our room for everything but there was nothing. Had to go back several time to to speak with her. Otherwise, it was a beautiful place. Hope to be back soon.
4.1
Clean rustic looking property. This is last night for the season. Check in was easy, they left a map and keys on the bulletin board by office! Friendly guy explained when I called ahead and it was as he said!

Should offer free WiFi
4.1
Great staff, great location, great views of the river and mountains.
4.1
Internet not included, no dining except Thai food truck. Grounds are nice to walk around, river view from room is nice.
4.1
Location and river view was phenomenal. I was expecting a few (minor) amenities, especially for the price tag , such as a refrigerator or even a small table. The hotel beds are very comfortable and they provided soaps and towels and a micro coffee maker. I would stay again but bring a cooler for items you want to keep while you’re out all day. The front desk staff were the nicest people and helpful in so many ways
4.1
The hotel uses a "pay for" third party "Wifi" Internet provider; you have to create an account and provide a credit card to use it. I have stayed in thousands of hotels and have never run into this. In my opinion it is a form of nickel and dimeing their guests and is unacceptable. There is also no desk or counter space to sit and use a laptop at.
4.1
Pretty scenery!

I came from Japan and came with my Fairbanks family. I was able to spend time with my children quietly and with peace of mind. I also enjoyed the view of the river.
4.1
This place is beautiful with an amazing river view. Only downside was the fact that you have to pay for internet.
4.1
Everything was fine there. We stayed two nights. However, it was disappointing that during our stay they didnot clean the rooms, do the beds or provide clean towels.
4.1
the rooms were spaious and the hotel is close to two hiling trails in the park
4.1
Nice location, clean and good staff.
4.1
Checking in was stressful. The room was clean but had poor lighting. Wifi did not exist or you had to pay for it. We could smell their sewage treatment plant at times. The room was hot with no ac and we had a hard time sleeping. The setting was nice with the river/ Mountain View.
4.1
Wonderful experience
4.1
Clean rooms with a balcony towards the river. Quiet and clean property close enough to Denali park and convinces, but far enough for some peace and quiet.
4.1

This was a nice place. We enjoyed it a lot. Would recommend it.
