Poor choice

The cabin had very little heat. We had no water in the sink until someone came and installed a new faucet. The shower had water that changed from scalding to freezing every one or two seconds. We would not recommend this hotel.

Crow’s Nest name is accurate description

We enjoyed our four night stay as the entire staff went out of their way to meet your requests. What we did not expect was the up hill location of the level five cabins. As is typical of many shops and other locations in mountain towns, there was a lot of trekking up and down stairs. Be sure to get a lower level cabin if you have difficulty navigating stairs. Staff will take you in golf carts if you ask. Denali is awesome and Crow’s Nest is very close to shops and restaurants—just have to climb down if you do not have a vehicle. Views are great from their restaurant deck and the cabins.

Everything was great. Except the TV was either hard to get working or just didn't work. The staff was helpful in trying to get it to work, but we couldn't. I'd come back again though.

Excellent hotel! The views are nice and relaxing. The cabins, albeit small, are quiet. The breakfast, which is not included in the cantina, is a culinary adventure and highly recommended. The biggest frustration we experienced is the ill-organized and often late shuttle service. Other than that, it is worth a visit.

Loved the property w super cute & comfortable cabins. Lots & lots of flowers everywhere. Fun restaurant “tAKo” on site, plus several others in walking distance. It’s a very hilly property so it’s not for the weak-knee’d!! Lots of stairs or slopes roads to choose from. Highly recommend!!

Let me do a criticism sandwich with bad things sandwiched by what I liked. First, staff who picked us up from train station (Philip) and staff who dropped us at our room were awesome. Night staff who wouldn’t answer the phone when we needed a golf cart to get back up the mountain to our room and morning staff who were let’s say difficult and rude, not cool.

Small cabins were cute, nice and clean, young staff was very nice and helpful, good taco restaurant onsite. Just be prepared to walk steep terrain that is dirt and or rock stairs to get to town. They do bring your luggage to your room though which does help.

Great location for visiting the park. Really friendly and helpful bar manager and staff. Make sure you ask for a room on one of the lower levels. It’s a serious trek up to level 5.
