Overall Ratings & Reviews Denali Crow's Nest Cabins

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.

Cozy property in the heart of Denali.

Loved this property. The flowers were phenomenal. We would sit out on the porch and enjoy the scenery drinking our morning coffee.

Pros: close to Denali National Park, comfortable beds, and a hot tub. Cons: limited WiFi, no air conditioner, bumpy gravel road to cabin.

Beware that this place doesn’t include a refrigerator - just an ice chest outside, and no microwave. And you have to schedule the hot tub time. And you can’t park in front of your room. Overall it was fine but I’d stay elsewhere next time.

John was the most friendly staff member at the property -- if it wasn't for him, this property would receive 2 stars. The '$20 breakfast to go' was disgusting. The shuttle service was a joke. Stay somewhere else, especially if you have small kids. The stairs were steep with a lot of them!

Very close to Denali with free shuttle. Clean room with a great shower. Very quiet and close to everything.

The property was difficult to locate. We did call and received directions. Staff was very helpful in general. The TV in our room did not work and we were unable to connect to the Internet. We did reach out to staff…who came to fix the TV…still did not work. We really didn’t need the TV or Internet, however if it’s offered, it would be nice if it worked. Beautiful setting.

For 400 USD/night, not satisfied. Beautiful but very basic cabins. Lots of stairs to get to your cabin. No breakfast. I'd try other place next time.

Long walk up hill and staff is not too friendly about rides even though they advertise this . Hottub dirty. Lovely views and good restaurant.

Cool cabins on the edge of a cliff. Way too much money for what you get. Peak prices in shoulder season, awkward everything in terms of operations, hours, hot tub/sauna use, driveway. Don't want to criticize but don't have a ton to compliment either. Would I stay here again? If there was nothing else available in the area, yes.

The Crow’s Nest is charming, with little cabins nestled into the hillside, great views, and lovely plantings. Unfortunately we found it to be very inconvenient. We traveled in by train, and while the hotel offers a limited local shuttle, they are very inflexible about when/where they will go. Because the hotel is up a steep hill, going anywhere means a decently tough climb up and down a steep trail. We knew about the elevation in advance but thought we’d be able to eat onsite at the hotel restaurant to avoid lots of ups and downs. It was closed during our stay so we had to look for other places to eat on foot. The staff were also unable to help us with moving our luggage down the hill at checkout due to the rigid shuttle operation schedule - unwilling to make a 5 minute trip down the hill because it was off schedule. That was tough to navigate as a family traveling with a young child who had to make an early morning scheduled departure. Overall, this place could be great, but feels like it’s in transition and not quite ready to host guests with varied needs. Definitely would not recommend for anyone with mobility challenges or concerns with managing steep hikes.

A unique property and stagf was great! Very knowledgeable about the area and professional and kind!

Very cheerful, helpful staff. Nice views from property.

We loved our night here. It’s right on the main shopping area but up a hill so it’s not conveniently located and also a little secluded. The room was small and cozy. The shower was great - good pressure and super hot water! We brought our pup and everyone said hi to him. The staff was very kind and welcoming. We will definitely be back! I added a photo of the view from our room. I will say that we live in Alaska and read other reviews and I think it’s just that people have no understanding of how remote and difficult life can be in Alaska. This is a very nice hotel in rural Alaska and I am so grateful for the care that was taken in the cleanliness and atmosphere and amenities. This is definitely a great spot to stay.

Cabin seems kinda crowded but if you are looking for two beds might work better. All cabins had ice cooler out front and ice provided. Husband did better than I at getting shower to cooperate. Parking lot to cabin was quite the distance with stairs. Still trying to get up and running and some things not working well like on site place to eat or drink, limited hours on hot tub / sauna and office. Staff tries hard but still trying to get their groove on.

First, when I got there, I had to go up a road that was totally for a 4 / 4 SUV or truck. Not a motorcycle. Second, the things that they advertised, such as hot tubs and restaurants. We're not available and last but not least. I got there 9 minutes before my checkout time, and they literally made us. Wait. We were the only ones staying at that hotel. Absolutely, horrible experience. I will never go back.And this is the third time that i've had a bad experience with expedia

It was your classic Alaskan experience.

The property was nice, but what stood out most was the staff they were outstanding. Our car had broken down and the town we were staying in was not very big so there were no mechanics surround however, the maintenance guy Logan took the time to get a new belt for us and repaired a car while we were out hiking Denali, Andres at the front desk found Logan for us and was very helpful. Can’t say enough about how great the staff there is.
