Historic Anchorage Hotel

Walking into this spot feels like stepping back in time, and I absolutely loved the classic, old-school vibe. The lobby is full of character, and the staff was so welcoming, even sharing some of the spooky local legends about the building being haunted. My room had a cozy, boutique feel with really comfortable bedding that made it easy to get a good night's rest. I also really enjoyed the free breakfast buffet in the morning because it had plenty of hot and cold options to fuel up for the day. Being right in the heart of downtown made it super easy to walk to nearby shops and the museum, and I loved being just a couple blocks away from the train station.

About 15 minutes away from the airport. Several good restaurants nearby. Staff is friendly and the breakfast was nice. This hotel has a lot of charm; real wood, smaller elevator, bigger rooms. The rooms can get toasty since there is central heating, so crack open a window. Understand this is an older hotel with authentic charm. There's a Hilton nearby if you're more into pricier and a more plastic setting. Also, book directly from the hotel because the price was better.

The location is perfect—right in the heart of downtown with beautiful views and just a short walk to restaurants, shops, museums, and sightseeing spots. Everything you need to eat, explore, and experience Anchorage is nearby, making it a great base for visitors.  The rooms are clean and cozy, the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the historic charm of the building makes the stay even more memorable. If you’re looking for a boutique hotel with character, convenience, and a great downtown atmosphere, this is definitely a place I would recommend.

There’s not much to say about this property beyond the fact that it’s spectacularly located, the service is impeccable (shout out to Patricia), and the rooms are spacious and charming. I refuse to stay anywhere else in Anchorage.

We chose the Historic Anchorage Hotel to be closer to restaurants and take a break from chain hotels. We reserved a two bed suite (we had 3 people). It was lovely! Very spacious and decorated with charm. The staff was very nice, welcoming and very helpful. They went above and beyond to take care of our luggage for that we needed to store early in the morning the day we checked in. They even called a taxi for us to take us to the airport . We had lots of luggage. We enjoyed the free breakfast which included omelets, egg bites, two kinds of sausage, potatoes and pancakes, coffee, tea and orange juice. We had a wonderful stay. We highly recommend!
