Aspen Suites Hotel Anchorage Downtown

"Had to get to the hotel before 10 pm for a parking spot limited parking"

Wingate by Wyndham Anchorage Downtown/Ship Creek

10/10 Excellent

"I ❤️ l9ved that the locati9n was located next to the creek . It was a diamond in the rough. Walking distance to downtown , however located right next to the trail along coast enough to see the mountain across the bay and also surrounded by the mountains."

The Lakefront Anchorage

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel lobby was beautiful with lots of wildlife pictures and displays/statues. Free parking lot with lots of spaces. Where our room was located we didn’t have a great view of the lake and float planes. Would probably ask for a room with a better view next time. Room was nice and bed was comfy. Hotel was in a very convenient location to restaurants and especially the airport. We ate at the restaurant and the food was excellent and there was a view of the lake and float planes. Would definitely stay here again!"

Newly Updated- Top Floor- Bona Nook #5

10/10 Excellent

"The place was clean and was as pictured. Had every thing in the kitchen that i needed or would have needed if my stay was longer. Parking was easy. Only problem wasone of the nights the people below me who woke me up being loud. I was thankful the issue was taken care of. I hope to stay there again."
