National Park Inn

We had a great visit to Mount Rainier National Park. Staff was friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the restaurant at the food was good and waitstaff attentive. No WIFI but nice fireplace to sit and read!

Nice and cozy hotel right at the entrance to the Mt Rainier National Park! The food was really good as well.

Could not imagine a better location for visiting the park. Good food in the ding room, friendly staff, great vibe. There was no and no internet, and I didn’t miss either!

There is no Wi-Fi or TV. It is a bit inconvenient without Wi-Fi. There is no mobile phone service.

Great location and charm. We enjoyed our stay and dinner. For those who need to stay connected, there was WiFi at the museum next door.

It was under construction. Lots of noise

Clean room while a bathroom was shared it wasn’t much of an issue. the sink is in the room conviniently. It was a bit warm at night, so recommend opening window at night. Also there was no wifi in the hotel at all but a short drive to nearby museum or to the visitor center resolve it as there was wifi and even cellular connection. Hotel offered preparing lunch for the trail for the next day- totally worse it, since there is mo much options around. Also be sure to bring cash in case card option is not working.

Food was excellent and the view from the porch of the mountain is breathtaking

The only negative was booking a room where you share a communal shower. Be prepared to have your own flip flops as at around 6pm, the shower looked like a hiking group came in from the woods. Long hair on the floor, water everywhere and a dirty shower floor. I went to another shower on same floor which was only marginally better. I did not take one in the am. And be prepared to wait, and wait..otherwise everything else was good inc. breakfast…

Clean room, helpful staff, beautiful surroundings.

The front porch view is amazing and the ability to grab a delicious breakfast and head out to explore Mt Ranier with no wait is unbelievable. We had the best time just being unplugged from all the distractions of our daily lives. Highly recommend!

The restaurant at the Inn is usually not so good service, but on this occasion it was totally awful, the food was over-cooked and the prices (as usual) were outrageous. The servers at this place could care less if you are there, pay little attention to you but joke with each other, and make you wait interminably for your crummy food.

Room was very small, the bed uncomfortable, and no AC made for a sleepless night. The staff were good and the restaurant was decent. I would stay outside the park on future visits.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay. The staff was extremely helpful, the room was comfortable and the location was great for experiencing Mt Rainier NP. We had a room with a shared bathroom/shower, and never had to wait for either. When our car wouldn’t start the staff quickly located a portable charger and solved our problem. The dinner we ate at the restaurant was delicious. We enjoyed sitting in the rocking chairs on the porch, looking at Mt Rainier.

We have always tried to stay in any national park we can. The National Park Inn did not disappoint. The rooms were quaint and ours was a bit small. But keep in mind that there are only 25 rooms at the inn. We had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. The food was nicely prepared and tasty. The best part was having our Irish coffee sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch as we watch Mount Rainer fade into the darkness. Andrea at the front desk was helpful and Theresa for dinner and Pia for breakfast were great waitresses. A most enjoyable experience..

What a lovely inn! National Park Inn is both historic and modern. We loved the friendly and expert wait staff in the dining room, the patient and accessibe front desk staff answerng a million questions, the large porch veranda for afternoon reading and dozing in rocking chairs, the afternoon tea served with scones in the living room, the comfortable rooms and accessibility to all things Mt. Ranier. We chose the hotel plan (5 night) with breakfast and dinner. The staff get to konw you quickly and are friendly and smart and gracious. The room we chose was the double with sink....we shared showers and bathrooms with others on the floor. This was not a hassle. We never saw anyone else! It is more like a European experience of shared facilities but everyone is quite respectful and so the whole experience is lovely and comfortatble.
We are 75. We loved the hiking and the National Park Inn and all things Mount Ranier.
We hope to be back when we're 80!!

The location of this property is incredibly convenient for visiting Mount Rainier National Park. It offers a charming, rustic atmosphere reminiscent of 1800s cabins, perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat.

One important note: there is no Wi-Fi on-site, though you can access it at the museum next door. That said, the lack of connectivity enhances the experience by allowing you to truly unplug and enjoy a quiet, technology-free escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

There’s also an on-site restaurant that serves breakfast and lunch, adding to the convenience of your stay. I would recommend booking this property for a cozy, nature-focused getaway.

We really enjoyed our stay here. As long as your expectations are realistic, you will too. For starters, it's inside the park entrance, so you have a head start on everyone else heading up to the Jackson Visitor Center in the morning. I booked a room with a private bath, which meant we did not have to share with others. My wife was very relieved about this. They say there's no wifi or cell service, but we got one bar with Verizon sitting at our window, and there's a spot near the ranger station where I got two or three, so I could sit at a picnic table and do whatever internet stuff I needed to do if it was too slow in our room. Yes, it can get hot, but we kept both windows open (our room was on the corner) and used a fan to keep the air circulating. It might be an issue in August, but in late June it was fine. We enjoyed the general store too and would have liked to try the restaurant but didn't get the chance. Front desk staff were always kind and helpful.

Every aspect of our stay was better than I expected. The lodge is comfortable, inviting and well-built. The service was excellent and our room was perfectly clean. Can't wait to return!

Quiet and peaceful but not much to do. Internet available by the museum outside. Dining is expensive. Only a few chairs on the porch so good luck getting one!
