Gateway Inn

We booked a standard room for two guests but were instead placed in a three-bedroom suite. While the extra space was unexpected, the suite could benefit from some improvements. The carpets and rugs needed more thorough cleaning, the furniture and lighting were not especially comfortable, and unfortunately, the beds did not provide restful sleep. The electrical outlets also presented challenges, as none were able to hold a charger securely. In addition, the soundproofing was limited—we could hear neighboring TVs, conversations, and footsteps. Expedia’s listing also mentioned a coffee shop on-site, but we did not find one during our stay. Due to our full hiking itinerary and management’s limited desk hours, we did not have the opportunity to share these concerns directly with staff. On the positive side, the location is excellent for quick access to the national park, and the price is reasonable for travelers prioritizing proximity over amenities. This property could be a good fit for those looking for a budget-friendly place to stay near the park, but guests seeking comfort and quiet may want to explore other options.

Cabine très confortable

Cabins were comfy but need an update. Very dated decor. Shower knob kept coming off. Towel rack loose. Wi-Fi weak. Front desk man, Stu very friendly.

We arrived after the office closed, however a map to our little cabin was left by the door. There is no WiFi or internet, so be prepared.

Convenient to national park

The hotel is in a good location to the park. The WiFi was terrible .

Our toilet leaked all night. They had us lay towels around the toilet for the night. The shower squeaked very loudly. The room was very outdated. The coffee maker is in the bathroom. The employee at the desk was very polite.

The staff and location was great. The cabin was in need of some upgrades, especially the bed.

Great to be near the entrance. Office folks very polite. Could have used a chair or two.

Stayed in a standard room on second floor. Room was very spacious with seating area, table and chairs, full refrigerator, microwave and a wall air-conditioning unit.There was lots of storage for grocery items, clothes and bathroom items in unit. Modest accomodations. Pleasant staff. Location was just outside of entrance to National Park. Restaurants close by. Try the homemade blackberry pie at Copper Creek Inn. Limited grocery stores to purchase your own food, suggest you get them before arriving.

Great location, very close to the entrance of the park. Front desk super nice and friendly Easy check in process Room had good water pressure Room decor needs. To be updated and declutter. Felt really old. Only spent one night. Can’t complain but has so much potential.

Great location. Literally in front of the national park sign!!! The cabin was so cute and comfortable! We loved it!!

We expected cabins as advertised, but got rooms in office building complex instead. Room was OK, but needs updating. Proximity to national park was great. Had to drive back toward Ashford or into park for meals.

Old but good. Comfortable beds. Good staff.

Very close to the park.

Property was directly beside entrance to Mt Rainier NP, so very convenient. Staff was very nice. Room was awful, beds uncomfortable, bathroom had an odor, shower tiny. WiFi spotty. Door to outside

A nice cabin hotel near the gate of Mount Rainier national park.

It is a very nice hotel. Just a little run down, but the staff was great. And it was only a few yards from the entrance to RMNP. Which was great. We went in early and was able to get parking easily.

We loved the cabins. They were clean and enough room for the 2 of us. The grounds were well maintained. Great location to the park entrance, a 2 minute walk to the welcome.sign. The only downside was they did not have any ice machines, extra toilet paper and we had to ask for a hair dryer.

Amazing for quickly getting into Mt. Rainier National Park.
