We last visited Glacier in June of 2008. Time flies. Stayed at the Glacier Park Lodge. Didn't get to drive the Going to The Sun Road. Closed. Drove it in 1997. Everyone should drive it. Not to be missed. The Glacier Park Lodge was most delightful. We took the Red Bus tour to Waterton and had high tea there. Not so wonderful. Had better at the Grand Floridian in Disneyworld, but the location was most pleasant. The Glacier Park Lodge was excellant and Xantera does an excellant job as the concessioner for the NPS. Good on 'ya mates and do it if you have the chance.

Glacier is a BIG park and no matter where you stay, you will have to drive to see it all! Not a BAD thing. Great views all.

The lodge is beautiful. The rooms are what you would expect in a national park lodge. I have 2 complaints.
Lighting in the room is very dim. I realize it is for the good of the enviornment, however, as an older person it made it hard to read.
The bathroom was ridiculously small. I had to stand sideways to brush my teeth. The shower was so small I and to keep turning to soap then rinse myself. Shampooing was a trick. I realize these bathrooms used to be closets but this one was terrible. I could see other bathrooms in the same wing that were larger.

I was not expecting much - I knew the lodge was old and there were no amenities. The lobby was impressive as well as the views. The room was large but you could hear the guests above you walking around - the bathrooms were teeny tiny. We did not eat in the formal dining room however the food in the bar was not great. If you are there to hike, it is quite a drive to the park entrance. Would I stay there again? Probably not. Am I glad I had the experience? Yes.

Do your homework prior to booking a stay: it it an old, historical building, the walls are thin, there is no elevator! it is clean, has a friendly atmosphere, the dining room is very very good(high quality meats, veggies with great service)
There have been a few negative comments about the noise level, the cleanliness, etc.--but I think knowing what to expect and the reason is half the battle.We enjoyed our time spent there and all around found it comfortable. Bottom line: would go back
