Ronald, 1-night trip
Verified Hotels.com guest review

8/10 Very good

Adorable lodge!
Amazing little place right outside Glacier National Park! We loved the area and chose Great Northern for its location. We were a 5-minute drive from the West entrance to Glacier National Park. The lodge was adorable! The rooms all open up to a main sitting area with a grand staircase. There were hiking bags with fruit snacks prepared for us! The room had a TV, microwave, and great bathroom products. The ONLY downside was the bed comfort. The mattresses are old. We could feel the springs when sitting or laying on the bed. We actually read the previous reviews stating that the beds were uncomfortable and decided to go for it anyway because location, location, location! Despite the spring action, I actually slept well, so it might not bother you either.

Beautiful place to stay. Wonderful staff. It is just 5 min from entrance to Glacier West side. Two good places to eat near by. River access. Lovely room

8/10 Very good

The room was new and quite nice. When we arrived on the property, it looked old and dirty from the rafting company attached. We were pleasantly surprised by the nice amenities and updated rooms. We stayed in the main lodge which had nice common areas. I would definitely stay here again. Also I would try their rafting service because it would be very convenient not having to drive to another location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Great Northern Resort. The accommodations were very comfortable and clean. The location is perfect, less than 5 min from gate at GNP, which allows for easy access to dining and shopping outside of park. GNR also outfits for river excursions (they are great too)

10 minute drive to the entrance of Glacier National Park. Property was super clean and well maintained. We stayed in the lodge portion of the resort which is different than the small cabins. The only complaint I have is that we ran out of toilet paper… wasn’t sure how to get more! When they refreshed our rooms during the day they didn’t give us more, so I ended up having to grab some from the public restroom in the lodge, lol. Would definitely stay here again!

The restaurant needs to expand its menu. It’s really not a restaurant with only five food options.

We loved the property- the resort building was only 5 years old and very well maintained. Loved it. Would advise bringing an eye mask to sleep if you need darkness as the door to the outside balcony has no shade. Everyone here was so nice. Bear spray is free to borrow. Food on premise. Five minute drive to the west entrance of the park. Would stay here again.

I’ve been around the world several times and this is my all-time favorite hotel. My wife, daughter and I stayed in the lodge and it was beautiful, convenient, clean and welcoming. The young lady at the front desk was warm and welcoming and answered all of my questions about the area and Glacier NP. 5 stars all day long and we’ll be back!
