It was wonderful to be right on the rim! The bartenders and servers were so friendly. Parking was a little tough since it was open to the public.

Great central place to stay in the park.

Wonderful historic lodge with beautiful views. You can see the lodge from Hermit road overlooks. Food options were fair. They offered coffee/tea service for the mornings but never had it

6/10 Good

Stayed one night. When is right clean and perfectly adequate perhaps a little dated and could be modernised without raising the traditional touches fan was extremely noisy and little quirk such as not been able to charge phone from Bed not problematic but reflected how the age of the building
