Historic Anchorage Hotel

We arrived and found our hotel early in day, while it was not check in time, the hotel staff were friendly and inviting and secured our suitcases. After lunch, we arrived back at the hotel to discover our suitcases delivered to our room. This is an old hotel with lots of charm. While the bathroom is functional, there is limited counter space. The shower, water temperature, hotness and pressure are above average. The bed takes up most of the hotel room and is unbelievably very comfortable, with lots of nice soft pillows. Many of the outlets are located on the floor with electrical strips, and on the light switches. This place does not have A/C, but our room had windows to open and take in the fresh Alaskan air, and a nice fan to provide an extra breeze. This room comes with a full breakfast meal each morning. This is the first hotel that had a self serve pancake machine (way cool). The breakfast area is in the former bar, and seats comfortable the guests in the hotel. The breakfast menu is varied, with plenty of options for each guests. As mentioned, all of the staff here has been helpful, friendly and willing to spend time and answer our questions. This is a rather small hotel - 26 rooms, but has an awesome gift shopt as well as a fitness room on the second floor. The hotel does have an elevator, but as residence on the second floor we used the stairs. The stairwell is wide, with nice carpeting on the steps, and lots of pictures to look at. The location is a quick walk to many sites and attractions in downtown Anchorage. I would highly recommend this hotel for those traveling that like staying in historic and hotel places as this place has great staff, a very comfortable bed, nice shower and good breakfast meal to start your traveler day.

We stayed in room 213 May 18-21. While it was no bargain it was considerably cheaper than the outrageous Hilton right next door. The room was somewhat small but adequate and clean. We never figured out how to use the TV, which was a good thing since it would've wasted our time. We weren't expecting it but included was a modest breakfast spread that included meats, scrambled eggs, breads and cereal. The location is smack in downtown close to restaurants. A ten-minute walk gets you the train station.

Charming Victorian decor throughout. Comfy beds, clean rooms. Suites often a good price, and just lovely rooms. Good breakfast. Helpful staff and owner. Near good restaurants and shops, as well as the train station. I only stay here when I come to Anchorage!

Clean and comfortable. Walked to dinner and the train.

Breakfast was ok. Great restaurants within walking distance. Beautiful Bar!

Old property beautifully maintained. Loved all the historic photos. Staff was very friendly and helpful
