    Weather permitting, this has a wonderful view of Mt Denali and other major peaks of the Alaska Range

    We had to chase after getting the room refreshed after making the requests in the morning before heading out. A bit disappointing to return in the afternoon to find the room wasn't ready. It would have been great for us if this was closer to the national park, but I don't think we'd have gotten the gorgeous view.

    This is a great location to see Mt Denali (conditions permitting) and the Alaska Range. You can't really see Mt Denali when in the national park. The lobby feels like a old-time national park lodge.

    It was difficult to get to town for breakfast or dinner with the limited hours of the shuttle. We wanted to go out for drinks one evening but short of walking/biking did not have a way to town and back.

    Beautiful grounds. Helpful staff. Loved having bikes available for use

    The view of Denali was awesome. The great room and Northern room's furniture was super comfortable and great atmosphere. loved having e-bikes for trips. convienent shuttle services, but they started late 10am forcing guests to their overpriced breakfast buffet ($26pp) and end early.

    The buffet breakfast was not as impressive and most other aspects of the lodge services. I'm not sure what the solutions might be, but there is a long gap between check-out at 12:00 and the afternoon train south from Talkeetna at 5:20 PM.

    The amazing view -weather permitting! A warm comfortable atmosphere, with some range of places to eat and drink. Impressively good arrangements for shuttle services and train baggage handling. Wonderful staff.

    Only grab & go breakfast, not hot, cheese stuck to the wrapping ☹️. They need pillow options, I saw a review that the pillows were too fat so I brought my own, glad I did—way too fat for a typical neck

    A Magical Stay at Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge
    • Leisure trip

    • Standard Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    We spent 2 unforgettable nights at Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge, where we enjoyed a fantastic stay. The staff was warm and accommodating, and the hotel shuttle was readily available for trips into town (until 6pm). Our room was quiet and cozy, providing a comfortable retreat. The lobby, with its welcoming fireplace, was a delightful space to relax. We savored delicious meals at the on-site restaurant, and the view of Denali was awe-inspiring. The highlight, though, was the Aurora wake-up call! Thanks to the staff, we witnessed the most incredible Aurora Borealis display of our trip. In summary, Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge offered a magical experience with fantastic amenities and unforgettable moments. Highly recommended for an Alaskan getaway!

    The bed and pillows were too firm.

    We upgraded to the room woth a view which was well worth the small upgrade fee. They also accommodated us with a king bed instead of 2 doubles. Very nice hotel. Great view of Denali. A nice bistro with the same amazing view. Highly recommended. Reasonably priced too!

    Food was a little bit pricey.

    The lodge is an excellent place to stay overnight when driving from Anchorage to Denali. Shuttle service to/from center of Talkeetna was very convenient. There are many common areas with beautiful views of the Alaskan mountain range. Our room was clean and comfortable. Staff was courteous and helpful. Parking was easy. We had a wonderful stay.
