Glacier Alpine Lodges

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable even though the steps are steep. It was located in a good location close to the national park. Host gave us some good recommendations for food in the area. Just know it's ok to park in the parking lot next door- the coffee shop."

Whistling Swan Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Our first time staying here and it was a great experience. Checked-in with Mark at Trading Post. Room #8 was clean, beds were comfy and staff was friendly. Appreciated the refrigerator, coffee make and suggestions Mark gave on places to eat nearby. Parking was tight. We would certainly stay again."

Many Glacier Hotel - Inside the Park

8/10 Good

"Stayed here for 2 nights in July with family. Positives: Gorgeous setting. Swiss-like esthetics. Loved that you could walk to the trails and not worry about finding parking before beginning our hike(s). Ate at the lounge restaurant and it was very good. Also thrilled to have a coffee shop, snack shop available. If able to, go to dinner one night at the Swiftcurrent Motor Inn restaurant (just a couple minutes away driving) then walk down to Fishcap Lake (nicknamed Moose Lake). It’s about a 5-10 min easy walk. We visited this lake 3 times and saw moose 2 of those times. When visiting after dinner around 7, it was like the animals were paid actors. Deer all around, birds, beaver swimming, and a huge, bull moose. One of the highlights of the trip! Negatives: a small hike is necessary to get to the parking lot. There is not dedicated guest parking, so during the day the lot fills fast due to others not staying at Many Glacier wanting to use the easily accessible trails. During the day, it is hard to find parking. It was not a problem when we left for dinner and returned in the evening. Our room had a balcony but the bench and floorboards were covered in bird poop so not really usable. Shower was tiny and room definitely was warm for sleeping with no AC (but expected—it is July at a national park lodge, afterall)"

Rising Sun Motor Inn and Cabins - Inside the Park

8/10 Good

"Very convenient location to a variety of trails , St Mary village and Many Glaciers trails"

Lake McDonald Lodge - Inside the Park

10/10 Excellent

"We love to visit NP lodges and Lake McDonald lodge did not disappoint. The staff from check-in to check-out were friendly, very helpful and always listening for ways to make our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. We ate onsite at the Fireside Dining Room and Lucke's Lounge--food cooked to our request, service consistent, and prices reasonable considering location. The lobby is inviting with the beautiful lantern lights, the fireplace with etched stone and a variety of comfortable seating. And most important, the views inside the lodge and outside are outstanding. Our accommodation was a small cabin and we enjoyed looking out our door and seeing a path to the lake. We took the Western Alpine Red Bus tour which is a great way to see the western side of Going To The Sun Road without driving. Jammer Bill provided humor and fun as he shared the history of the road."

Swiftcurrent Motor Inn and Cabins - Inside the Park

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, 2 beds, great for family. More updated than Rising Sun Motor Inn. Trailheads right next to it. Walking distance to the Grinnell Glacier Viewpoint trailhead."
