Stayed here for two nights post-cruise in early June. We cruise to Alaska every season and always stay at the Alyeska for at least two nights of our trip and use it as a base for touring the Anchorage and Kenai area. Girdwood is a great location as it is less than an hour from the Anchorage airport and only... More

We stayed there for a few days while visiting family in Anchorage. Girdwood is a friendly little town, and so is the hotel. The staff was very welcoming, and our hotel room was very clean. It was February when i visited, and so the hotel was very peaceful and serene. The pool is larger, and it has a gorgeous view... More

Stayed for a single night, and should have made it longer. Not in ski season, so the place wasn't quite as busy as I'm sure it's used to. Check-in was smooth. Nice room, very well appointed, great views, quiet and comfortable. Got a great deal so the price was right as well.

We stayed here one night and ate at the Sever Glaciers restaurant. The hotel grounds are now in bloom with many flowers and colors. Mainly Tulips today, it is June. Sculptures, statues, art around the grounds make this a nice photo opportunity. Our suite is large, nice pictures on the walls. There is a closet with lights, safe, fridge, coffee... More

I visited the hotel in the summer months (June) and was extremely pleased with this location. From the moment I walked into the hotel I was impressed with the caliber of this hotel. It's not the cheapest place in Alaska, but the amenities are great. Multiple food choices at the hotel, a sundries shop for basic items (without having to... More

We never visit Alaska without making a stop at The Alyeska Resort. Primarily built for ski season, this beautiful hotel is a special treat in summer too. Don't miss a ride on the gondola to the restaurant above (another wonderful treat) - views, views and more views of surrounding glaciers. You will also want to explore The Winners Trail with... More

Although the rooms are small they are well appointed and quiet.. Ours faced the mountain and tram. The management did a nice job of fixing a problem we had when we checked in. I was hosting friends from the lower 48 and it was certainly an impressive setting.

We loved Hotel Alyeska. Not enough can be said about the amazing views from our window. Everyone was very nice and our room (Deluxe) was nicely appointed. The beds are heavenly and a separation between the room and the bathroom area gave it a suite feel. The towel warmer in the bathroom was a nice touch. We heard no noise... More

Checked in to find the room we reserved was too small for our needs and the staff was most accommodating in satisfying our needs. We enjoyed a comfortable stay and received excellent service. I'm sure there's a great view from nearly every room, ours was spectacular.

Wow! What a beautiful hotel. This was the highlight of our trip and thankfully, we stayed on our last night so the memory has stayed with us. Check in was smooth and staff were friendly and efficient. They upgraded us to the top floor, mountain view room. Valet parking was free, although we managed to find close spots in the... More
