Denali National Park Visitors Center is worth a visit, located 6.3 mi (10.1 km) from central McKinley Park. Hotels.com travelers also say the area is full of friendly people and has lots of nice parks.
"The rooms were amazing. They were clean just be sure to lock your doors. We forgot one night and our car was rummaged through. Things were stolen it’s our fault we forgot to lock our door, cause our hands were full, it obviously is a hotspot to go through cars,.but other than that, everything was amazing to the pool through the cleanliness and all ."
"I wish Front desk staff could be friendly, They don't smile, they don't greet, didn't talk much Felt kind of Ignored. May be overwhelming for them with tourist, Housekeeping staffs are awesome, They always greet when they see us on the hallway with beautiful smile on their faces, Breakfast girls were amazing and Hard working, They kept an eye on every table. They were humble and Kind. We were assigned a room next room storage closet. Everything was shaking and vibrating when you walk inside the room and also banging Noise when someone restock their linen supply at 6am. Overall stay was great and defiantly will return to Pike's and Will recommend Pike's"
"The pool was okay as far as cleanliness but it was way too chilly for me and my granddaughter to swim and play in. I realize there is a cost associated with a heated pool but in the winter it would have been a nice treat. I was told it was at room temperature and apparently that is considered warm enough to some people just not for me! Highly disappointed especially since there isn’t a hot tub. I will not be recommending this hotel to anyone looking for a nice pool."
