Chena Hot Springs "Resort" is more like a tired motel. We had 4 adults booked in 2 separate rooms. The rooms were OK, but not completely cleaned. The stairs and hallways were dirty. The WORST part was the restaurant. It does not take reservations. The hotel was apparently fully booked. We went to dinner at 7:30 PM and told there would be a 2-1/2 hour wait! The hotel obviously knows how many guests they have and probably a very good idea about dinner guests. After half an hour, exploring their "snack bar", we returned to the restaurant and were able to order take out sandwiches which we had at 9:00 PM. I would not stay at Chena Hot Springs Resort again.

The hot springs were great. The Ice Museum was good. Their prices have increased from their website. If dining in the main restaurant, get there early. The line was ridiculously long and expensive! For quick food try the activity center. We did get to see the Northern Lights. And one more thing, the thermostat in your room DOES work!

Liked the Ice Museum and restaurant. Rooms were clean but the bed mattresses need replacement. Hot Spring, pool, and hot tubs were well maintained but the men's locker room lacks adequate seating for amputees. The Activity Center had good selections but needs some new seating and tables to encourage family gatherings.

The room was large and very clean. Comfortable beds. Check in was easy and reception was nice and helpful. Hot spring area was clean and just the right temperature. Lots of activities if you were interested but just walking the area was great. The restaurant was very busy so we chose to get sandwiches at the activity center market. Really delicious choices including salads and soup and pizza at reasonable prices. A long drive but a nice experience even though the clouds stopped us from seeing the aurora borealis!
