The staff is the best. Only complaint was that there was no hair dryer but found out they were available if missing from the front. As far as clean, there’s a lot of carpet and most of it was dirty, but what do you do in an outdoor activity environment. Overall, I’d definitely stay here again for sure. Plenty of on site dining too.

The Princess Wilderness Lodge is centrally located near Denali National Park and Denali Village. Everything you could possibly need is either on property or within walking distance. There are very helpful shuttle services to and from the park and the train station. And excursion companies provide shuttle services that stop at this resort as well.

I was a bit skeptical due to reviews but our stay was more than great!! We stayed in a room with 2 beds, the room was well maintained and clean. The location is 10/10, super close the park and shuttle stops. There are onsite restaurants, gift shops, and coffee & downtown is directly across the street. I didn’t realize this lodge was mainly geared for princess cruise guests, but we still enjoyed it very much. Definitely recommend.

It’s a very good hotel to stay! Important notes, kitchen has microwave, refrigerator, dish washer but no oven. Breakfast options are good for vegetarians as well. Waffles, oatmeal, cereals, bread and patties, egg were in the menu.

Amazing stay at the Princess Lodge. The room was super clean, and the staff on-site were very helpful. We would have loved it if the restaurants were open until a bit more late (like 11 or midnight) or if there was a deli/vending machine for readymade food pickup.

Owners attention to details is phenomenal. Small things like a care package in the bathroom, bath robes, conveniences in the kitchen, pepper spray cans…you name it, so the cottage was well stocked and equipped. Owner was very responsive and helpful throughout.
