Lovely old hotel. Room was very nice except for miniscule shower. I could not even turn around in it. Historical tour was very informative. Gorgeous grounds and hotel. No elevator though and we were put on the 3rd floor. All employees were very nice. Still trying to figure out what the tunnel was at the hotel.

This is beautiful old lodge but lacked amenities. We were on the third floor without an elevator which is a problem for two people in thieir 70s. Our room did not have a tv or air conditioning and the bathroom had old linoleum that was worn out which would be a simple upgrade. Not an expensive place to stay either.

Beautiful historic lodge
I loved this charming rustic lodge. It had everything we needed there. There were mountain views and yard games to play. The room was comfortable, clean and quiet. At check in Kathy was very nice and Adam the bellhop was super helpful and kind. We would stay there again.

Booked two nights under two different reservations and they could not accommodate allowing us to stay in the same room. We had to switch rooms. Staff upon original check in was not to friendly. But most other staff we encountered had been friendly.

Very noisy, bathrooms are small - shower is stand up & very small. Sink was old ‘ very small—had to put toiletries on back of commode. No way a large person could fit in the shower - and our room was supposed to be a mobility room even though we didn’t need it. Could hear everything neighbors were saying or doing. Every step squeaks & very loud walking & talking. Good in restaurant very expensive - 35 & up

Location is great for exploring Glacier National Park. There is no elevator and we had a room on the 3rd floor so we carried our luggage up 2 flights of stairs. ( you can have a bellman do it but we did not want to wait). At the top our room was very warm and there is no A/C. There was a box fan which we positioned into the window to blow air into the room. But it took awhile to cool. We had difficulty sleeping because walls are very thin and lady next door was talking loudly on her phone. Plus she had a baby which cried several times during the night waking us up. We happened to be staying there on Native American weekend so the hotel/restaurant sold no alcohol—you had to go in to Glacier park to purchase it. Which is fine but it would have been nice to notify guests prior to their visit of the situation. East glacier is very remote so we could have planned ahead. We were on vacation and enjoy a glass of wine with dinner.. Bottom line— East Glacier lodge is a vintage lodge with a great location and beautiful grounds but short on amenities

You should stay here, but just be prepared.
A classic lodge built 100+ years ago by the Great Northern Railroad, it is a very cool experience. It's basically in the middle of nowhere, and most arrive here via Amtrak (the station is 150 yards from the front door). However, what you should know is that it's kinda pricey (food, shuttles, room) with not many (if any) amenities for the almost $300/night rate. We lugged our bags up 2 flights of stairs to our 3rd floor room (there are no elevators). Our room had the world's smallest shower in a bathroom that made a cruise ship's bathroom feel cavernous. There is no a/c, but the room came with a box fan and an open window (with screen). Unfortunately, the placement of the outlet meant that the fan couldn't be placed within 4 feet of the window. In cooler months, it won't be an issue, but this is mid-July. The food was just ok, but over-priced. The quality of the food on the $22 breakfast buffet was sub-par...ok assortment, just not great quality. The beer was GREAT! $7.50 pints of local craft brews that were tasty and even a bargain! The service was friendly, always. Especially the bellmen :-) Let's face it...you're here to see the park, which is STUNNING! I don't think there's any better options, especially if you are on East Glacier with no car.

The lodge is absolutely majestic. The history it holds and the views are stunning. The rooms and bathrooms are small, but you’re not there to hangout in your room. There are plenty of places around the property to do that. Shuttles are available to take you into the GNP so you don’t have to worry about driving and parking.
