Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pros and cons. The rooms, even on the Captains Floor, were small, and the elevator was incredibly loud. The late-night noise was disruptive, feeling like an earthquake. The hotel is in urgent need of renovation.
I had a fantastic experience at the hotel. The location was ideal, offering easy access to downtown Anchorage and major attractions. The rooms were cozy, but I experienced some noise issues at night. The dining options were decent but had limited hours. The service was warm and attentive, making my stay pleasant overall.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with nice rooms offering amazing views. The service was generally polite and friendly, although some staff seemed tired due to an emergency landing incident. The location was downtown and convenient for exploring the area. Dining was very good with delicious options available. Overall, a great experience with a few minor drawbacks.
I had an amazing stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious with a great view of Cook Inlet, making waking up at 5 am a delight. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the bathrooms were large and provided ample vanity space for my toiletries. However, the price could be a bit high for some visitors.
The hotel provided a very comfortable stay with well-appointed rooms and excellent water pressure in the shower. However, the expected breakfast was missing. The cleanliness and amenities were top-notch, making it a pleasant stay overall.
I was really impressed with the hotel's cleanliness and comfort. The staff were incredibly warm and kind, making my stay very enjoyable. The location, while convenient and close to popular attractions, was a bit on the smaller side, and the dining experience, although good, had some limitations. Overall, a great value for a pleasant stay.
