Knowing now that this property is owned by Princess cruises, and caters to cruise passengers first, I would never stay here again. I requested a king bed, but they would not accommodate me even though I made our reservation months ago. The one shining star was the little gal working the gift shop. She was very sweet!

Didn’t get to stay. Reservations were made in April 2024 for two night. A week before the reservation they canceled it. A few days before the second night was canceled for a bus tour, hope the people enjoyed our room!!!!

Absolutely beautiful location. However, when we checked in we were offered zero information on amenities, activities, or dining. We wandered around the place and ate at the bar. Our server, a younger dark haired tall gentleman (with some tattoos), was just perfect. We witnessed the other server high pressure selling everything he could from more drinks to dessert and felt like that was annoying just to be in earshot of it. He was loud. But we loved our server and I think he should be in management. All in all except for our server I felt like with the other staff that we didn’t exist. The hotel is located in a pretty spot. Watch out for the frost heave driving up! Also that hill must be fun in the winter. We also ran into quite a lot of hungry mosquitoes on the little nature trail, so be prepared for that.

Great location with amazing views and facilities. Limited dining choices and the restaurant was understaffed - they warned us before ordering that it could take up to an hour to get our food.

Great place to stay on the way to Wrangell-St. Elias national park. Clean, fast wifi, with restaurants on site making it easy to find something to eat in this remote part of Alaska. Property is owned by Princess Cruises but guests do not have to be part of the cruise in order to stay here. Tip: Book directly with Kennicott Shuttle if trying to take a day trip to visit the national park. Princess offers the same excursion, but charges more and uses the exact same company.

Front desk person started pounding on our door so hard I thought there was an emergency about an hour after we checked in. She then barged in the door before I could get to it and shoved a brochure at me. I’ve never had anybody enter a room that I was staying in before. There is not an electric door at the entrance so when you’re pushing a luggage cart out the door, there is no staff that helps, they were very discourteous and just gather to talk to each other.

Good place to stop for the night. Easy parking and beautiful surroundings. The staff was very helpful, they offered to call us if the aurora occured and the restaurant downstairs accommodated us for last minute food before closing. The Irish coffee at the bar was really good. There is a nice place to sit at outside that is well taken care of. A complementary nature walk was available in the afternoon. The room was sufficient, although it was time for one of the mattresses to be replaced as it had lost its shape.

It was in a lovely setting! The shared spaces were very nice and well kept up. We booked through Expedia so I think we were given an older, handicapped equipped, room. (I queen bed and 1 single bed!?) The room was clean but the beds were poorly made (bed skirt tucked up under mattress) and there was no fridge. For the cost. It was a very spare room.
