Stayed 2 nights, solo, in April 2012, at the Portal Peak Lodge. Room rate was $75 a night. Overall a very positive experience... CAVEAT: This is a lodge-motel, so you have to go in knowing what to expect for $75 a night. If you are looking for luzury accomodations, this isn't your place (nor IS there any place for a... More

FABULOUS time in Portal! I feared the worst (we were there for a music week and let me tell you, I've stayed in some pretty down-market locations playing music), but was happily surprised, as the food was very good and the accommodations were much nicer than I thought they'd be.

We booked the Portal Peak Lodge and Cafe to host our first Annual Portal Irish Music week event and they did a fantastic job of hosting us. Meals were on time, the food was healthy, the staff was friendly and helpful. Special diet needs were cheerily accommodated. Mitch and Loni were flexible and made our event a success. Thank you!!!

In retrospective, it may have been fine if the webpage had not set our expectations a bit high. The pictures look nice but in reality the place is a bit rundown. The rooms are very clean (which you... More

Had fairly low expectations since this is a pretty remote area and the exterior is not promising, but was pleasantly surprised by the room's cleanliness, good upkeep, spaciousness, and great lighting. Food was great at the cafe also. Have stayed at the Cave Creek Ranch in Portal area too, and both have their good points. The view from Portal proper... More

I am a camper at nearby sunny flats campground, but when I want a good meal, I come in to the lodge/store and buy some supplies and a good meal. It's a friendly place, and if you are a nature lover who prefers not to camp, this place is in a wonderful location. They maintain year-round hummingbird feeders, and other... More

we stayed one night during the fire of 2010. the lodge was contracted to feed the firefighters and even though we arrived at dinner time they were still very super friendly and accomodating and let us have a hamburger and beans. rooms were clean, tv had 3 glitchy channels but that shouldn't matter to anyone, grab a couple beers in...
