National Park Inn - Mt Rainier National Park
One thing to know about staying at the National Park Inn is not all rooms have private bathrooms. You will want to make sure when you make a reservation what type of bathroom you have.
Some rooms have a ¾ bathroom that is a bathtub without a shower while other rooms do not have a bathroom.
The National Park Inn offers the opportunity to stay within Mount Rainier National Park. You can enjoy views of Mount Rainier from comfortable chairs on the front porch.
One interesting historical tidbit is the Inn was moved to its current location in 1920 and was rebuilt after a fire destroyed the original building in 1926.
The National Park Inn at Mount Rainier has a gift shop, dining room, and a great relaxing atmosphere.

Guestrooms with a bathroom
Guestrooms with a private bathroom come with either a queen, double or twin beds.
We stayed in room 22 on the 2nd floor of the National Park Inn. Our room had a queen bed, private bathroom, a single chair, and a dresser. The room was small but comfortable.
I will say the queen bed was VERY close to the wall so if you have 2 people staying in the bed one person may have to inch along the wall to get into the bed.
The bed was comfortable and the room was very quiet at night. There was a great window fan to let in cool air.
The private bathroom was small but had everything we needed for a night.

Two bedrooms share a private bathroom with a double bed in one bedroom and two twin beds in the second bedroom
