Concierge "The rooms are pleasant, if a little corporate in style, and quite a bargain for downtown, especially since the hotel is within walking distance of nearly all of Anchorage's main attractions."
Fodor's "Recalling Captain Cook's voyages to Alaska and the South Pacific, dark teak paneling lines the hotel's interior, and a nautical theme continues into the guest rooms." Full review
Insight Guides "Among Anchorage’s finest, all 547 rooms offer either mountain or inlet views. Restaurants, lounges, a coffee shop all on site, and an athletic club with pool, sauna, and steam room."

Lonely Planet "It's a bit of an odd location right next to the train tracks, but there's wi-fi throughout the campground and the price is right for a downtown spot." Full review
