We spent 1 night here on our road trip along the south coast and we wish we had stayed longer. The views from every window was sublime, and the photos on their website of the outdoor hot tubs and sauna do not do it justice. We particularly enjoyed the different pockets of area to sit and just enjoy the views. Dinner at the restaurant was excellent quality. Rooms were quiet, clean, well appointed and the bed was very comfortable.

Everything about this place is outstanding! If you’re considering a stay here, do yourself a favor and book an extra night - our only regret was not having more time in this incredible place! The staff is exceptional, the bar cocktails are out of this world, the bartenders are so friendly and made the best drinks we had the whole trip. The sauna, hot tub and views are stunning and it was so relaxing to enjoy those features. The room was beautiful, clean and comfortable with additional stunning views. We’d stay here again and again!

My husband and I stayed here on the tail end of our honeymoon. The property is gorgeous, the views are stunning, and the hotel itself is very nice (and new). We enjoyed that I was in a more remote location which gave us great views of the northern lights from our window and the parking lot. If you are thinking of booking, it’s worth the extra for the glacier view, breathtaking is the only way to describe it. The only “complaint” I would say was the food at the only restaurant. You are limited to the bar or the one sit down restaurant, the first night we ate at the bar and the food was phenomenal… the second night we did the sit down and the food was mediocre at best… we had the steak and lamb, which was not worth the price. Overall I would recommend the hotel for sure based on views and location!

This was the most amazing hotel we have ever been to! The atmosphere was so lovely, and the staff incredibly helpful, kind, and informative. The amenities such as the hot tub, sauna, and showers were relaxing after a long day of hiking and sight seeing - not to mention with an amazing view! Also, the bartenders in particular were excellent and put so much time into each drink they made. We did not try the restaurant but ate at the bar a few times and the food was fantastic! Highly recommend this hotel!!
