Bent Prop Inn & Hostel Downtown

Downtown Anchorage

"I stayed in Anchorage as my launch point to Denali and Seward/Kenai Fjords. It was good to be able to extend my stay and book the female dorm last minute in the days in between my trips. The manager, John, splits his time between the midtown location and downtown, and I found he was the most helpful in booking my transportation and the Kenai Fjords cruise. Overall staff were friendly and keep the place tidy despite how many ppl were staying there. It is a budget hostel and nothing fancy here....

Top Alaska Hotel Reviews

Motel 6 Anchorage, AK - Midtown

8/10 Good

"The room was clean. The staff was accommodating."

The Wildbirch Hotel - JDV by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is transitioning from the old location that was here to the brand new Hyatt JDV hotel. Still some improvements happening but the room was complete, new and comfortable to sleep in. The trains through downtown make it a little noisy but not terrible and don’t run all night long, and the hotel does provide earplugs as well in case you need them. The hotel is conveniently located in the downtown area with access to the Railroad behind it along with Ship Creek and some amazing restaurants. The hotel is on a street that is like a hill, so the 2nd floor is where the main lobby is but there are other access doors and conveniently placed staircases as well to get to your room anywhere in the hotel. Would definitely stay here again!"

The Lakefront Anchorage

8/10 Good

"Great location for coming in from airport. They had an airport and train Station shuttle. Very cool grounds being able to see the float planes take off and land. Onsite restaurants are just ok. Bring an eye mask! Rooms have window AC unit so you can’t close the blinds all the way and it’s very bright at night."
