We had an excellent experience at Crows Nest! The cabin was very comfortable - the king bed was very nice and the large cooler outside was helpful. They have complimentary coffee, ice for the cooler and a nice hot tub. The location is excellent close to the “action” but up away from the busyness.

We made last minute arrangements for the Crows Nest , we were the first guests there under the new ownership , staff was great , cabin on the side of a mountain was good for a one night stay it was small and kinda out of level , the walkway to get to town isn’t very doable for older folks and the driveway was very steep for walking

Very good property nestled in woods. The road to the hotel is uphill however the shuttle service is really good. The staff is very helpful and we very much enjoyed our stay. Just one point to note - If you arrive from Fairbanks by train you reach hotel by 12:30 pm and your room may not be ready till 4pm. It happened to us and we would have appreciated clear timeline for room availability so that we could have used those 4 hrs going to visitor center in the Denali park.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Lowkey the water pressure of the shower as bad and I didn’t know Alaskan hotels/motels had sinks outside the bathroom. Made it very inconvenient. Our shower leaked past the curtain and onto the floor pretty bad, Denali is also a bad like place for good. It’s a touristy heavy area with limited things to eat but many places to shop for the same thing.

Great location and very charming. Rooms were decent size and beds comfortable but they didnt have side tables on both sides. They need to put HOOKS for people to hold stuff/ gear and even just a small ledge on the other side of the bed. Little things would make this charming little cabin more functional. Bathroom showers are pretty dated and spray gets all over the place. Its convenient to food and tourist shopping andncoffee shops but it is a steep downhill walk or a shuttle ride. Its lovely and charming but if you have mobility issues than this would be a challenge.
