Delightfully old school and quaint right next to the beautiful garden. Nice to see a hotel with some character and not another cookie-cutter modern trash. I would totally recommend to anyone, and it's walking distance to welcome center as well as restaurants.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (118 reviews)
The outside of the lodge is beautiful and well manicured but the rooms leave a lot to be desired. The beds are incredibly hard and uncomfortable, and the sheets are super hard and almost made of plastic. The shower in our room had mold and there was no antibacterial soap in the bathrooms. The towels are cheap and it was honestly disappointing considering that upon check in the man who works there said we got a “good price” because they just renovated. I expected luxury and it was honestly very average.
The breakfast was decent and the views are great.
It’s not worth the “good price” (already insanely expensive) in my opinion. There are other resorts around there that have better amenities and nicer rooms for a similar price.

We had a great stay, we had an issue with the room Air conditioning that couldn't be fixed straight away so the gave us a new room (which had a better view).
