Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was nice. Not worth the money we paid but decent. Bed was okay, but a king needs more than 3 pillows. So, this property is up on a hill and not a part of Denali village like we thought. They offer shuttle service I think but we just used our car. Parking up top is limited, maybe 10 spots. They have overflow about 100 yards down the hill which isn't great late at night. Also, while they will help you get your bags to your room, we chose to do it ourselves. Depending on the building you end up in, this could be a pretty good walk with heavy bags. Luckily the weather wasn't bad while we were there. Just disappointed considering how much the property cost us for two nights.

The room was fine. The bedspread was dirty. The cafe was minimal. The front desk were ver personable on check in day. The next day was not as pleasant. We were concerned about staying the 3rd night because of snow on roads. The staff member was not understanding and told us to enjoy where we were. We had been enjoying Denali very much, so this felt rude. We checked out a day early and are still hoping that we will be reimbursed for the third night since we left due to weather.

Beautiful property within walking distance of shops and dining. Would highly recommend if you plan to visit Denali Park. We took the train from Fairbanks to the Denali Depot, met with the representative from Denali Bluffs who gave us luggage tags and checked us in. Our luggage was taken to our room while we toured Denali Park. This entire process was seamless. The shuttle service that runs between the Park and Nenana is very convenient. We hopped on it to get to the Denali Buff after exploring the park. We hardly saw any animals and those that we glimpsed were quite far away. Looking forward to visiting the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center in Anchorage where we will see the animals up, close and personal. Do not miss dining at Prospector’s Pizzeria and Alehouse. It is always jam packed for a reason…we tried The North Face pizza and it was one of the best pizzas that we have had. The spinach salad was excellent as well.

We stayed one night here to visit Denali NP. Our room was huge and very nicely decorated. The king size bed was comfortable and the view was fantastic!! The staff were all very nice. We didn’t eat there. While it was a beautiful dining room be prepared for high prices. Instead we drove to Healy to 49th Street Brewery which was very good. Most people were on tour buses so we understand that going somewhere else is not an option. Very happy we chose Denali Bluffs Hotel!!!
