Nice but not up to par

While the lodge itself was nice, there was only one restaurant, a bit pricey for their menu. Was very disappointed in the areas of security. There were not any locks on the outside doors to the buildings where the rooms were and worse yet there were not any locks on the window in the room. There were not any microwaves nor were there any small refrigerators. The store in the lodge was very limited. However, the River next to the buildings was beautiful, but I didn’t get a room where I was able to enjoy it. Some of the staff was great while others were just ok. Denali Park, itself, was amazingly beautiful.

We were there Sept 19 and 20. Bad thing the park was pretty much closed down by then. The staff was great at the cabins but there was limited food choices and you had to ride to princess hotel for meals. When we left we had to sit from 10 am until 4 pm at a cold uncomfortable train station and no place for food or drink all day. Do not go here after the 1st week of Sept or it will be disappointing for you also.

We stayed at the Lodge for two nights while on a land tour of Alaska. The room was comfortable, quiet, and had a beautiful view of the river. The public spaces were comfortable and decorated nicely. Previous reviews were not favorable but we could not have been happier with the property. Very scenic, safe, and convenient. Our only disappointment was that we didn’t see the moose that apparently frequents the hotel grounds! We enjoyed our stay here very much.

We were at Denali Park Village for two nights on a land tour package (bus tour). The coffee bar touts Starbucks, but only regular coffee, only in one size. The ice machine in the building is for three buildings. (No refrigerators in the rooms, so you'd better get ice at 2 am or 6 am to get any.)
The other reviewers are correct. The views are beautiful. The area is stunning.
It was nice to get to Denali Park, but I wouldn't stay here again. There are nicer places down the road with more access to stores, restaurants, shuttles.

Our Denali Park Tour picked us up at this location, so had occasion to spend some time here. Dinner in the Gold Rush Dining Room following return from our park tour put us into sticker shock! But the food was good, but not memorable. Now, two weeks later, I cannot remember what we ordered.
