Kenai River Lodge

8/10 Good

"It has a very nice view of the river"

Uptown Motel Kenai

6/10 Okay

"I checked into Uptown Motel on May 20, 2026. I stayed till May 25th, 2026. During that time my room was only cleaned one time. The 3rd day of my stay. I had to ask to get some clean towels and have my garbage taken out. The little girl at the desk was very sweet and did get me fresh towels, but the bed linen was never changed in my room the whole stay. Breakfast....I went into the dining room on one morning. I asked for the Eggs Benedick. It looked so good in the menu. I asked for the eggs to to over medium, Not running, Also asked to have the hashbrowns extra crispy. Well, eggs were running and hashbrowns were just whitist and warm. I ate a few bites and got up and paid my bill and left. I am sorry that this place has gone down hill so much. I have stayed here 4 years ago and it was great. This time left a poor taste in my mouth. The staff were nice, but, nothing was said to a refund on the food or lack of cleaning in my room. All they said was sorry???"

The Kenai Inn

4/10 Poor

"When we arrived the outside seemed old and not maintained. But the inside of the room seemed and smelled clean. After the first day though a musty odor showed up. No staff on premises. Big round water mark on ceiling. Not sure if it’s recent or older. I would suggest some maintenance be done prior to renting atleast that room out again."

2 bedroom apartment overlooking the the mouth of the Kenai River. Downtown Kenai

10/10 Excellent

"The place was very clean and well kept. It was way nicer than expected. Area was very quiet and location was great, close to anything we needed. Would definitely stay there again next time we’re in the area. 10/10"
