My daughter and I stayed at the Talkeetna Lodge for 2 nights in March. The whole stay was amazing. The lodge is beautiful! Every staff member we came in contact with was super nice and helpful, always asking us if we needed anything. From the big fireplace in the main lobby, the gift store, nice big rooms, comfortable beds, fire pits on the back deck and even a wake up for the Northern Lights if you choose!! It snowed while we were there.. the hotel had inner tubes we checked out and slid down the big hill behind the lodge! So much fun!! We loved our stay and would definitely stay here again!!

The main lodge is the only nice thing. Rooms are motel 6 at best and the place is over crowded with your buses full of unfriendly people who clog up the dining rooms.

Best place to stay in Talkeetna!
Our stay was amazing!! From the whole setting driving up the road to the lodge to the views to the rooms - everything was beyond our expectations! Upon checking we were surprised to find out that our friends and I had been upgraded to suites so that we could have adjoining rooms. What an awesome surprise!! The rooms were great - fireplace in the rooms, large jacuzzi tub, fantastic king size bed and an unbeatable view of Denali! To top it off we woke up to a clear view of Denali!

The views outside the lodge are beautiful. The inside lobby is grand and what you expect for a large lodge. The room was clean and comfortable. What we did not like was the restaurant (only one open due to covid effects) which we totally understand, we also understand everyone is under staffed this year. But, the breakfast was only Buffett style- very few people want to spend $26 a head for breakfast, there was no alacart offerings. The lodge had a station set up in the lobby with coffee and a few breakfast sandwiches and fruit. The line was huge. We would have loved to hop into the town BUT the shuttle hours are 10AM- 5:45PM! we had no car so this was extremely inconvenient. Most folks are up early for tours and exploring 10 is way to late in the morning. And, if you eat dinner in town and you have no car you have to walk back the 1.7 mile. Luckily we are avid walkers :). You can easily spend one night in Talkeenta to see the town. We did the fly over Denali and River float in the same day.

This lodge has one of the best views of Denali south side from Talkeetna. The Mountain View rooms are spacious and great for sunrises and sunsets. The lawns are well maintained and inviting. Wildflowers adorn the backyard and trail leading to the river. Food was good at the restaurant but there is staff and food shortage all over Alaska due to covid. It seemed to be an welcoming place for diverse groups of people. Highly recommended.

Only nice place to stay in Talkeetna
Nice resort. Nice drive up appeal. Very clean and updated. 1/2 way point to most locations. Nice blacktop trail for walking. No AC and hard to circulate air from open window. Blackout curtains needed to be longer to help block sun. I would have preferred a softer pillow.

Check in is at 3pm however 2 rooms that we booked were not ready until 7:30pm. Many other guests that were checking in also had this same problem. I understand they are short staffed, other than this, it’s a great place to stay.

They do not care about you
Check in was at 3 pm, I (and many others) had to wait until 7:30 pm and later to get a room key. They claimed they were fully booked and had not enough employees, but they did not make an effort to let clients know ahead of time (via email or their web site) that they should expect LONG delays to check in. They did not make any efforts to make guest feel comfortable during the waiting period or provided any partial refunds. When I tried to cancel my reservation and move to another hotel, they said if I did they would not refund my room. I felt they did not care about guests at all.

They didn't have the restaurant open for breakfast. There was no service in the rooms. You had to go get any fresh towels or more coffee. They said it was because of covid but we stayed in 5 other hotels on our trip and all of them had all their restaurants open and rooms being cleaned. Other than that, the location is great and the views were great.
