Some of those bathrooms are quite small as they were added to each room for guest comfort not that long ago. Communal bathrooms were how the Lodge was originally built. For the most part, our guests are willing to put up with that inconvenience as a part of the historic experience. However, sometimes it can be a bit much, especially if you have a bad back or the like. As a little insider tip, not all the bathrooms were created equal, which you noticed. In the future, you can request (not a guarantee) a second floor room. Those typically have a larger bathroom. Although, most of them have a balcony also, so they are going to run a little bit more. I hope that helps.

Thanks for interacting with us on TripAdvisor. I’m very sorry that your stay with us was not as accommodating as you expected. Please keep in mind that the historic lodges in and around Glacier were built at the beginning of the last century by the Great Northern Railroad and were completely modern for the times. A stay in them today, is “turning back the clock” to a different era. I would like to point out that the rooms are kept very clean and in order by our staff. They are small now, but at the time that they were built, they were not considered to be so. We do our best to present the feel of our facilities on our website and brochures, with lots of pictures and accurate descriptions. Please know that your comment has been passed on to our company president. As far as Hiking, the Two Medicine Trailhead is within 20 miles and is the gateway to some of the best hiking in the Park.

Thank you so much for your interaction. Comments like yours are nice to have around when there are so many folks that seem to not grasp the concept of what to expect. This building is 99 years old and carries a legacy with it. There are some difficult decisions when it comes to replacing vs. repairing anything to do with these hotels. Each time something is replaced, it is a loss. Again, thank you for pointing this out.
