Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the Historic Anchorage Hotel. The rooms were clean, well-stocked with towels and soaps, and the staff was very helpful and welcoming. The location was great for access to downtown Anchorage, and the hotel's dining options were good, although I missed having a waffle maker. Overall, a comfortable and convenient choice for my trip.
I had a comfortable stay at the hotel, with clean and modernized rooms. The service was very friendly and accommodating. The downtown location was convenient for exploring Anchorage, although street noise could be a drawback. The dining options were basic but had a novelty make-your-own pancake machine. Overall, a decent value for the price.
The hotel is located in downtown Anchorage near the Train station, making it ideal for exploring the area on foot. The rooms were clean, but faced the street and had a smaller bathroom. The service was friendly and accommodating, despite some missed procedures. Dining was satisfactory but lacked variety. The location is fantastic for walking around downtown Anchorage and enjoying a date night away with privacy.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms, though a bit small to keep their historic charm, were clean, but having two double beds made it feel a little tight. The service, despite being wonderful most of the time, was marred by an unwelcome early morning intrusion. The location, right in downtown Anchorage near the train station, was convenient but noisy during busy hours. The dining options were decent but lacked consistency. Overall, it's a decent choice for those who value a central location and friendly service.
