Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The staff is really helpful giving suggestions and help.
The hotel room is very clean. The hotel is old. However, it is still in good style. And the price is really reasonable. I would pick this one if I travel to Valdez again.

It was just right for my quick overnight. The bed was comfy & I enjoyed my morning coffee & breakfast. The room was clean and the check in and out was easy.
The room was older but very clean and furnished with all the necessities. The breakfast was good. Staff were very helpful. They even changed our flat tire and helped us find a repair shop.
The location is central, and the basic needs are met. The building itself is pretty dated and has that musk, but check in and check out was great and we slept very well. The attached bar is a bonus for some good ol’ Alaskan fun. Breakfast was basic continental but had good options and does the job for fueling you for adventures ahead. Staying here definitely gives off that old school Alaskan feel.
Older property but clean and convenient for one night stay before catching ferry from Valdez. Price was higher than I expected for property and area but due to short tourist season I understand this is how it goes. Front desk staff was kind and friendly.
Staff were friendly and the place was clean. The bed is a bit soft for my taste, but some people like softer beds.

Not many options to choose from - Valdez is amazing and wherever you stay you will be happy as long as you get out there and explore! This hotel was decent - pretty clean, but older and a bit musty smelling. Breakfast was good, shower sounded like it was going to explode but was hot and did the job. Great location - definitely over priced for the type of hotel it is.
