Was a good experience. Plenty of tourist activities and points of interest. Rooms a little outdated and tiny shower. Good restaurant for dinner and breakfast.

Haven’t visited for 20 years, but still a charming delight. Our restaurant on at Moose Lodge, spacious and quiet for three. Soaking in hot springs always a gentle, relaxing pleasure. Dinner, far too much food, especially the huge salad with dinner. Interesting use of geothermal energy to provide power for several buildings on the premises. Fun to see resident goats. Shall return.

Great property, great food..hot springs are amazing

It's a very unique property. The building we slept in had a loose lock and needed updated, but the hot spring was fantastic. Not sure why my 15 1/2 year old daughter wasn't allowed in the hot springs with us though. Before we left we considered booking another night, but we had plans to meet-up with friends in Anchorage, so we didn't.

I gave it 4’s because it’s a little rustic. A lot of cool things to do and see. Worthwhile to stop in for a couple of days if you are in the area.

Stayed here 25 years ago and the place has not been updated. The hot spa was not open to our 14 year old son, and they make you sign the release to indemnify them for any injury and damages even by their negligence or you don’t get in. The ice machine was locked and need to borrow the key. Over all the place needs a serious update and not worth the money if you do t get to see the northern light.

We loved our week at Chena Hot Springs. The Northern lights put on a fabulous display. The hot springs and the pool were wonderful. The food at the restaurant was delicious. We were treated well by the staff. A quick dog sled ride was fun. Highly recommend this adventure in the remote resort.

Great food and comfy rooms next to a Hot Springs with the ability to see the northern lights. What more could you want?

The only restaurant is at the resort. If you don't get seating early for dinner you will have to wait for a while. The host was not very freindly.

The property is absolutely beautiful and staff is great and friendly.

4/10

The only reason that I didn't give it zero stars was that the food was wonderful and delicious and the front desk staff and restaurant staff provided great customer service. I would avoid going to this area. It's a day trip for locals and didn't seem like a lot of people stayed overnight. Ice museum was not worth the tour. The hot springs didn't smell clean (not the sulfur from the springs). We stayed in one of the off buildings, which was outdated. The shower was either scalding or freezing. The room was OK clean. TV didn't work. The staff was great but the buildings need a complete overhaul.

The resort was ok for other individuals but for people with disabilities it was a nightmare. It’s not set up very good for disabilities people put on 2 floor no elevators or ramps

This was a great escape with loads of outdoor activities. However, there weren't enough food/dining options to keep up with demand. Best to dine at nonpeak hours if you want to eat in the restaurant. The staff really work hard so kudos to them.

Not ADA friendly. Poor WiFi, TV service. The hot springs was why we went. Probably will not stay in the resort again. One time experience. Not worth the money spent. The restaurant price are way high.
