Seward is great for a relaxing staycation.
This hotel offered me great view from the wide window. Room is clean and well decorated. Friendly staff and convenient access to lot of restaurants. Just little bit far from grocery stores.
The hotel and staff were great, the room was clean and served us well on our stay. The location get you away from the tourist but your close to downtown and other places to shop and eat.
We were pleased with the amenities of the room and the hotel in all ways. Our visit was delightful!
The staff were polite and professional and provided all the assistance we asked for.

Ok for a short stay. Cookery, the restaurant next door, is excellent.
The hotel was very nice and in a great location. It was only a two min walk to all the restaurants and the Sealife Center. The room was very nice and clean and Paulette at the front desk was very nice and gave us some great restaurant recommendations. Would highly recommend this hotel and we will definitely stay here again the next time we visit
