We stayed here in the summer for our Anniversary. 1st the Pros: Its a beautiful drive up and down the mountain. The hotel is lovely overall. Everything is so clean. All the staff we encountered were nice and helpful. Large hotub. The continental breakfast was good for what it was. Apples, oranges, pastries, bread, bagels, english muffins, cereal, oatmeal, sliced meat and cheese, milk, juice and coffee. The Cons: When we booked it, the map showed it was in the middle of Whitefish, but when we got there it was 10mins outside of town and up the mountain. I missed that somehow in the details I guess. There is only about 6 or 7 parking spots in front, otherwise you have to park across the street and down the hill. This was difficult for me with my health issues, but it wasn't too terrible. When you walk in- there is a weird smell, it's difficult to explain, like old-smelling (but the entire hotel is very clean) There is no elevator in the hotel so you have to carry your luggage up the stairs (the hotel offers help carrying luggage if you need it). I'm unsure how anyone in a wheelchair would get around this. The hotel could use an update. There was a deeper smell in our room. We opened the window to let fresh air in and kept it open. The room is a bit smaller than we expected from looking at pics. There was either mold, or stains that look like mold on the bathroom ceiling. We would definitely stay here again though. It was a lovely time.

Great place

I make sure to always stay at Kandahar once a year for a trip to Whitefish and Glacier Park. Incredible Jacuzzi and the steam room is one of the best! Great rooms, great beds, and quick access to the top of the Mountain.

It was fine and relaxing. However if we would have stayed in whitefish (vs in the mountains past whitefish) we would have had much better cell reception with Att It was nice but in the summer there’s not much to do here on the property. Should have save the travel time and stayed in whitefish or Kalispell or any town closer to glacier NP
