Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We had two rooms. The first was in the main building and was fine, number 11. Plenty of space, comfy mattresses on the bed and pull out. Then we moved to the wonderland suite. I know the place is old and the rooms are small but in the wonderland there was so much big furniture that we had to rearrange things just to use the pull out couch and then there was no room to put any of our luggage at all. This could be easily remedied by changing the furniture like the giant cabinet in the bedroom and the over sized chair in the living room and the giant coffee table. We were tripping on eachother trying to get to the bathroom. Even if just two people were there there would be no place for luggage except for all over the floor. Also there was a lot of dust stuck to the popcorn ceiling and it was blowing around which was a little disappointing. Also the pull out mattress was terrible- all springs, and the king sized bed was sagging in the middle. I wouldn’t stay in that room again.
Historic 112 yr old renovated/remodeled building. Quaint room was clean and comfortable. Thankful for added portable room air conditioner although is was a bit loud. Building could use an ice machine with ice buckets in the rooms. Outside there was an amazing fish pond with picnic seating area. Hotel parlor had snacks and awesome dvd collection you could borrow from and dvd players in the rooms. Great place!
This is a pretty unique property. There were things I really liked about it and things I really didn't. Things i liked: common room with board games and dvd and generally nice vibes. Fish food for purchase so the kids can feed the fish at the pond. Nice trails nearby that's very quiet and quaint.
Things I didn't like: no staff until 4-7PM. There's a number to call but no in-room phones and our cell phones were not working. Maybe other people have wifi calling or something but we really just needed to ask some simple questions real quick. No ice machine afaict but we didn't realize until we were in a rush to go. Breakfast requires 24h advanced ordering which I missed so didn't end up having breakfast.
No elevator for luggage, not a huge deal, but staircase also seems old and rickety. And maybe for breakfast just offer some default options instead of requiring 24h advanced ordering. Some people are on the road with kids for a bit and just loses track of the todos.
My suggestion is that the property should have a number to text or email with quick turnaround for quick questions.
The hotel and room are old, but very nicely maintained and decorated. There are restaurants and shops a few miles away. It is very close to the entrance of Mount Rainier National Park. The room is small, but it is the only hotel around, and it is very clean. The room we had lost power at night and didn’t come back until second day morning. Overall it is a nice experience.
Probably not the Lodges fault and most likely Expedias, but I arrived to check in after a very long day and they said they could not find my reservation. I had it on my phone and had received a breakfast request and everything two days before my arrival from the lodge itself, but they said my room was not available as it was assigned to someone else and they could not find my reservation although I had a confirmation. Seemed like an ok place from the outside and the front desk was nice in trying to figure out what happened just unfortunate that this happened and we had to drive all the way back to Seattle and find somewhere to stay
Great stay! Well maintained for how long it’s been around and pretty landscaping. Friendly staff and reasonably priced. There were 2 deadbolts which felt super safe because one is locked only from the inside and can’t be opened from the outside. There were two adults and two pets in our room and the king sized bed was perfect for us. Thanks for accommodating!
The staff were very friendly and helpful during my visit. The lodge is a bit dated, but everything was clean and worked as expected. Best of all, the location is fantastic. I had a wonderful stay
Alexander’s Lodge is cute and quaint! Conveniently located right outside the Nisqually entrance at Mt Rainer National Park. It’s the perfect, quiet getaway. Would definitely visit again!
Close to the entrance, save time to go to park . Hotel has a good environment, and provide some breakfast for people who didn’t prepare breakfast. Staffs are very friendly.
The Summit Suite is huge, comfortable has two large bedrooms, a huge kitchen enough to cook for a large group, a comfortable sofa and fireplace. Large selection of books and DVDs to keep you entertained.
There was no ice machine. The clerk said i would need to drive the 5-10 miles to town to get ice. First hotel i ever stayed in that had no method of getting ice. Since covid, customer support had gone down down down.
the lodge is old but nice and comfortable. The steps to go to second floor are very small so you have to be careful. The parlor area is well maintained with Piano, chess and other activities. Enough parking available and the location is very close to the park entrance.
