Not much choice at Denali
You pay major city prices for a staying in a cheap temporary building. Main lodge is permanent, rooms in seperate temporary buildings. Sure I understand this is only open a couple months a year so they need to make money while they can. The other (Princess) hotels were the same temporary construction. You just need to know what you are paying for. There was no thermostat in the hotel, had to get on hands on knees on the dirty hotel carpet in order to try to turn the broken knob on the heater. And because it was broken just had to open window, not very ecological in a place where would think they should be ecological.

Very nice and clean
I was wonderfully impressed with this hotel. It was centrally located in the middle of the town and close to the park entrance. Our room was very clean and located amongst a beautiful forest atmosphere. There are several different buildings within the property that have hotel rooms on the ground level and second floor. We loved our second floor room, but those with physical limitations should ask for a ground floor room. The buildings are very woodsy-like and do not have elevators with entrances from the outside. There is also a shuttle to transport you around the property if needed. Overall, I was extremely happy with our stay at this hotel and would definitely stay there again.
Traveler's tip
If you are not part of a tour group and are driving into this area, be aware of the shortage of available mechanics should you have a problem with your automobile. This hotel is located right in the middle of the town, but the town itself if very secluded.
