Aurora Denali Lodge

Aurora Denali Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The thing I liked the most was that it wasn't a chain....it felt...local. I liked that. The hotel was clean and well put together. I think I stayed in the older section across the parking lot but it was still very clean. I very much appreciated the staff. The young lady who checked me in was very pleasant and personable. She was definitely a local having grown up in Healy and only making it as far as Fairbanks for college. Very helpful, answered my questions and was an excellent representative for the hotel. Additionally, they were selling drinks and snacks in the lobby......for a dollar a piece. A 12 oz diet coke and a bag of Nilla wafers! The cheapest I have seen in decades and considering it was in Alaska (as expensive as it is) ....I took notice."

"Terese, the front desk employee, was awesome & super helpful! I read ALL the reviews (before booking) & we were not expecting much, but it was a lot better than we expected. The bathroom could have been a little cleaner, with better water pressure and hotter water, but you can't expect much in the middle of a national park-lol! The owners said the water pressure issues are supposed to be taken care of in 2027. Their wifi is wonderful & the views are great!"

10/10 Excellent
"We were very happy with this hotel. Staff were helpful, room was very clean, and we were fortunate enough to have a river behind our balcony! We had an incredible view of the fall trees and could hear and see the rushing water. Our second story room had a high ceiling and wood interior was perfect for Denali. The only downside was that the train is fairly close and we did hear the whistle once at night (this was nothing compared to our horrible experience in Anchorage at a hotel with train whistles all night on both sides of the hotel). I wish the rooms had a microwave and fridge - we used our balcony as a fridge since the temp was right. They did let us use the microwave in the store to make microwave popcorn. We enjoyed Thai food from the food truck in the parking lot."

"The location was ideal—just 15 minutes south of Denali’s entrance and the main Village, giving us easy access while avoiding the heavy crowds. The property’s on-site bakery and restaurant were outstanding; incredible breakfasts, dinners, and baked goods easily made up for a mediocre shower and limited luggage space. Finding the suite was a bit tricky due to poor signage for the buildings and parking—we weren't the only lost guests driving past!—but the fantastic food and serene location made it worthwhile."
