We stayed 3 nights. No one at front desk at check in, they knew we were coming. I asked front desk a few questions on final day about if there was a place to store our luggage in the park before we took the train, she said no, correct answer is yes at the visitors center $1 per hour. I asked which bus stop do we get off for train, she said bus stop in park, wrong correct answer visitors center. Not sure how after 5 months she was this clueless. On Our final night we were in room C4 next to employees and hotel laundry room, they washed their boots and washers ran for hours, no sleep for us. On day of check out, which was also their last day of the season they shut the tv service off. Check out was surpose to be 11 but upon check in we were told 10 am. Bed was worn out. We paid $250 a night for this. A couple of good things if you go before the end of season there is a boardwalk of stores and probably one of the only places that has a fridge and microwave in the room.
The room was clean. Loved the forest wood theme. The wi-fi worked and frig and microwave nice. Only issue was the fan on the wall, the cord didn’t reach the plug. But there was another fan to use. Overall would stay here again.

We stayed here with my family of 5. The property was very spacious and staff was friendly. It is a little older, but it is close to some dining and shopping options. Very close to the entrance of Denali. We had a great stay here.
Suddenly, we were without a place to sleep on Labor Day weekend. Our campsite in Riley Creek was canceled due to bear activity, so we started a frantic search for accommodation near the park entrance. Rainbow had one room that we nabbed immediately, without regard to the amenities.
What a pleasant surprise! Two friendly, helpful and humorous women worked the desk when we arrived. The room was clean, spacious, homey and well-appointed.
A Princess shuttle stop is right across the Parks Highway, and it's free for anyone going to or from the National Park.
We're already planning our next trip to Denali, with Rainbow at the top of our list of places to stay.
