We loved every minute of our stay here - the Lodge is an amazing and historic building that is very impressive inside and out. TJ the bartender was super fun and friendly, as were all the staff we interacted with. Dinner at Buchanan's was exquisite ... we can't wait to come back!

We enjoyed our stay. The only thing I would have liked to have seen was a coffee maker in the room and being able to watch Fox News on the TV.

Property location is nice and safe for families and 30 mins away from glacier national park main entrance.We didn’t like the continental breakfast that they serve and they could make it better in the future.add some scrambled eggs,sausage and potatoes etc.need some updated renovations.

10/10 Excellent

Great location, very clean and beautiful lodge. We loved the lobby area with the fireplace and that we could do our laundry. The room was nice and the beds super comfortable. We will definitely stay here again. We love Whitefish, Montana.

As a family with 2 kids who were looking to do activities at Glacier National Park ( west & east ) this was such a great experience and choice. Highly recommend it ! Lot of restaurants in Whitefish town which we enjoyed during our stay.

I wish it had an elevator. And I wish they would’ve told us we needed a reservation to go to the restaurant when we’re staying at that hotel.
Shellie, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very historic, well located property with a great service mentality.
Christopher, 5-night trip

8/10 Good

I mean, the guy named Marc at the front desk was amazing, and breakfast was phenomenal. But one female front desk person wasn't intending to help, like when we asked how to go to Glacier or Flathead. She was trying to avoid us, so yeah, overall, it was good.
Debashrestha, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

It is in a woods setting, beautiful scenery, and a lodge feeling inside. It is a little far from the main part of town. We are a more mature couple so carrying our things upstairs was a little challenging. Overall a pleasant experience.
Debbie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

A team with quality communication makes all the difference. Thanks for being there to accomodate us!
John, 1-night trip

WiFi is too slow.
Lei, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

My stay at the kandahar was amazing. They had a smooth check in process, continental breakfast, transportation to the base lodge, beautiful fire place, clean and cozy rooms, and just all around amazing staff. Will definitely stay again.
Katherine, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Off the beaten path in summer. Maybe nice as a ski lodge but in summer it just feels worn out. Hallway carpets are a mess, rooms are musty. You can hear neighbors on either side easily. Needs some strong updating and deep cleaning.
