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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lodge. First the lodge is gorgeous. It offers places to sit and enjoy the scenery either in the lobby or outside on its expansive porches. The staff was knowledgeable on the national park.

The common areas in the hotel were nice and the outside was beautiful with lots of outdoor activities. The rooms have no AC and the box fan in the room doesn’t fit in the window so the room remained above 75 degrees until after 2 am. The bed was decent. We did not eat during our stay and cannot comment on the food. Overall decent stay near Two Medicine area of Glacier.

The check in experience was disappointing. The young woman that checked us in seemed uninterested and just handed us our keys and told us where the room was. I asked if there was anything we should know about the lodge or if there was a map and she kind of looked at me funny and said “no”. The other lodges in the park tell you about dining options, times areas in the hotel are open, etc. She provided none of that. Upon checkout I stood waiting to check out at the desk while a different woman totally ignored me. She was helping some other staff members but could have acknowledged that I was even there as I was the only guest waiting. I will say the bellhop was fantastic. He noticed I had been standing there a while and was so pleasant. He told me where to drop my keys, etc. (which could have been explained upon check in). I saw him working very hard throughout our stay.

We stayed in two different classes of room. The first, which was quite expensive (around $306/night), was very nice. The second, which was expensive but less than the first ($230/night ) was in poor condition and begged to be remodeled. I'm 5' 10" and the small bathroom sink barely came up to my waist. Was this room originally designed for young children? The shower was extremely small. I'm not particularly wide but I couldn't turn around in it without bumping into and pulling back the curtain. Neither room had necessary amenities such as cups and Kleenex. We've never been in a hotel or motel that didn't supply these - until now. Finally, when leaving the less expensive of the two rooms we had to pull the door hard to get it to stay shut and lock. When closing the door prior to checking out the screws on the pull handle came out of the door, leaving the handle hanging. This room was way too pricey for such poor quality and they somehow classified it as a Superior Queen. The hotel lobby and the first room were both beautiful and the view from the first room was gorgeous but unfortunately the second room is what left the strongest and most lasting impression.
