Good, clean place to stay with convenient & very good restaurant. Since it’s on a hill/ bluff, you will have to roll your luggage up or down hills to get to your building. If you are on the second floor, there are no elevators so you will have to carry your luggage up a flight of stairs. Also parking seems limited & you may have to roll your luggage thru a gravel parking lot to get to your building.

We loved our room (clean, comfortable, nicely furnished), and we had a nice view of the mountains from our balcony. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant in the hotel was very good. The front desk suggested other restaurants nearby and we enjoyed dinner at the Moose-aka and lunch at Denali Doghouse, both a short walk from the hotel. Free shuttle to Denali National Park is convenient, but only runs once an hour and has a two hour gap in service in the afternoon. But other hotels nearby also have shuttles and during the gap, we caught another hotel’s shuttle from Denali Visitor Center and walked back to Denali Bluffs from that other hotel.

Denali Bluffs - mixed bag
We were very unhappy about having to drag our luggage uphill for 10 minutes to get to the room. There were not enough parking spots so we had to walk even further on several occasions. They did not clean the room and we ran out of soap and towels and had to trudge up to the front desk to get more. The restaurant food was mediocre and very expensive. The room was clean and spacious. The front desk people were not friendly or helpful.

The staff is nice and friendly. Location great - 10 minutes drive to Denali Bus Depot. A much better value than Grand Denali as there are inexpensive food options in pantry and not the noise from tour busses unloading and loading like the Grand Denali.
