We stayed in a recently refurbished room and were very comfortable. Great view of the mountain. Shuttle from the Coastal Classic train to the hotel worked very well. We enjoyed a casual meal in aBar as well as a tasty brunch in the Tramline Cafe. My husband found the Nordic Spa to be excellent. The restaurant at the top of the tram had wonderful views but was pricey. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

This property was a delight. It was spacious, perfect for 2 people. Instructions for check in and out were clear. The unit set up was well thought out. On top of all that the bed was comfy. When I come back to Palmer, I will definitely be looking to stay here again.
