Getting to McCarthy is a challenge but Im glad we did it. ##### Tom Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randall 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Emily drove the shuttle, gave great advice on what to see, worked the front desk and did the laundry. They ran an extension cord for our CPAPs and the lobby was a cozy place to charge your phone and chat with other travelers. They went over and above to take care of us. ![The lobby](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0a55ef55-5291-42fd-9c2a-0bbc5ca79263-1756656950845.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Randall Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities great ##### Steven Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Carl 8 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities As expected.

The decor reflected the town's history and each room was decorated accordingly. They were upfront about things like a shared bathroom and no outlets in the rooms. It was a little cold upstairs since that floor does not have heaters in the rooms but they gave us extra blankets. For us, these things were issues and it was fun to socialize w/the other guests while charging up our electronics. The WiFi worked great as did the transportation. Everyone was helpful and it was easy to get around town. The breakfast was outstanding! ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara 25 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We tried to stay at the Kenicott Lodge and are so glad it was full! Thats when we found Ma Johnson's Hotel! Absolutely fantastic!! It was like stepping into a time warp and going back in time. And McCarthy is not to be missed! What a cool little town. We stayed 3 nights at Ma's and enjoyed every minute. We were able to walk to a glacier, took the mine tour and went flightseeing, all of which Irecommend highly!! Add this to your Alaskan vacation plans!! ![This is the room we had. It was like going to a movie set. These are all pictures of the hotel.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e23ce965-e99e-445a-b8c6-b037d4205566-1753402931024.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5f9337a7-9038-4125-9959-89a6c4033ec3-1753402928229.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e5d7d7e8-dd01-4394-bc2b-b231cb794cb1-1753402932974.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b476ee08-ecfe-473f-9a78-afc04a0cb3b3-1753402934495.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Barbara Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria 27 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Private bathroom and A/C would make the stay better ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia 27 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is an iconic landmark with historic charm.
