Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge has a lot going for it. The views are beautiful (Denali on a clear day), and the large decks make the most of the scenery. Rooms are comfortable and well-kept, and the property includes multiple dining options, including a more refined restaurant that makes for a nice evening. That said, the lodge can feel overrun at times with cruise ship visitors who seem to be in limbo, waiting for the next part of their journey. This often makes the lobby and common areas crowded and less relaxing. Still, when you look around at the alternatives, this is likely the best place to stay in the Talkeetna area. If you want great views, solid amenities, and a comfortable base around town, the lodge delivers.

We stayed here as part of a cruise line's land tour. When we arrived, the staff brought our bags to the room quickly. room was very clean and comfortable. It was cool when we visited, so we just opened the window and didn't need AC. The room had everything we needed, and the bed was comfortable. We did use the guest laundry, and aside from having to make change to use the machines, it was very convenient and fast. The hotel has several dining options in-house. The only one we used was the coffee bar in the morning, and their service was fast and efficient. We did take advantage of the hotel's shuttle van into Talkeetna in the evening. The last pickup was at 9:45 PM which was fine for us.

We spent one night part of a land tour, our room was in the 500 building. Over all very pretty resort the grounds and flowers were kept very nicely, the interior was beautiful they had a fire going in the main lobby. Many sitting areas to read and relax around the main building. A laundry room that was very much appreciated. The gym space isn’t enough for more than four people but I assume most people aren’t there to workout. Our room was ok, not the cleanest. The floors needed vacuuming. The bathroom walls very much needed a wipe down in many areas. There was a bandaid in the upper shower corner when we arrived and a few long hairs on the top of the bed spread. I assume the bandaid was hard to see if the housekeeper was short, I’m tall so I saw it. The sheets were clean and every thing smelled fresh, no heavy cleaner smells or anything like that. The hand soap and shampoo smells like pine trees. I get it bc we are in Alaska but if that’s not your thing bring your own. Over all I would stay again but would prefer a room in the main building and if I was there for more than one night I would have asked for a housekeeper to come back but I always bring my own Lysol wipes so I handled it to feel more comfortable. Restaurant had good food. Staff was great in all areas that we encountered.
