    cleaning issue

    I enjoyed my stay here, especially the cool stuffed animals in the lobby and the clean van that took us to the train. There are great opportunities to relax by the pool or in the cozy lounge area. The room could have used a bit more cleaning, but it didn’t ruin the good vibes. 😊

    great location
    comfortable rooms
    friendly atmosphere
    delayed shuttle
    unhelpful staff

    The hotel's location. The fishing option offered a nice adventure too. Rooms were comfortable, and the vibe was laid-back. Just a heads up, check the kitchen supplies, as they weren't fully stocked .

    Unfortunately, we faced a hiccup with a delayed shuttle that created some stress on our last morning. The staff didn't proactively offer a solution, a letdown.

    charming historic decor
    warm staff
    accessible location
    comfortable seating

    The hotel showcased a charming, historic decor, and the staff was warm. The accessibility was good, with helpful services like luggage assistance and proximity to local attractions.

    More comfortable seating options would enhance the experience.

    It is very 'Alaskan' in decor and feel. It is advertised as 'historic' and indeed it gives off the air of being and old, historic building in Seward (but has been newly renovated).

    it is not good value for money - but then again everything in Alaska is relatively expensive compared to the Lower 48.

    The shuttle service was a highlight, as the driver was super friendly and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located right in the center of town, close to good restaurants and attractions.

    Nice lobby. Restaurant & bar quite good.

    Rooms need upgrade. Parking can be a challenge. If we did it again, we would have booked on the waterfront for about the same price.

    Had a warm, comfortable demeanor about it. Lobby appointed with Alaska (stuffed of course) critters, and museum-like pieces of Alaska living, and old photos of Seward. Looks like rooms were refurbished recently, and were very nice in size and furniture. Beds very comfortable, and room size adequate. We were three adults (my grown nephew and his wife) and the two queen-sized beds did us well. A shuttle came by to pick us up for our Kenai Boat Tour in plenty of time, and driver pointed out good places to eat, and even an eagle's nest w/chicks, which we returned to photo later. All in all, a great experience, and value. I'd definitely stay there again. Nice introduction to quaint downtown area. Nearby Blue Moose gift shop a must to stop by.

    Had to park on street, and move to lot 1 block away while they swept streets at 4:00 am as no room left in their specific parking lot. But, this was an extremely small inconvenience and would not hamper our decision to stay thete again. Good side is...Seward cleans its streets!!
