We went down with our kids for the annual Easter Egg hunt in Skagway. Anyone visiting Alaska should make a point of visiting this hospitable town. The owners/management of the Skagway Inn are very accommodating and family friendly. They offered a special rate to folks coming in from our town this weekend and had an Easter bunny basket full of... More

Historical charm, great food, excellent service! Lovely rooms, comfortable and authentic. The breakfast is awesome and is included with your nights stay. We travel to Skagway at least once a year and always stay at Skagway Inn, if there is availability, they are very popular and busy. We perticularly like the our hosts, they are very accomodating and we love... More

This was our second stay there and it was as enjoyable as the first one. The Skagway Inn is in our top 10 list. It would be hart to find a more fun place to stay - history with convenience. The Inn is not a modern place - that's what is so much fun. Historically it was a bordello during... More

I recommend the Historic Skagway Inn highly. We found the staff friendly and the beds very comfortable. Our room was clean but stuff in it needed dusting. The heat had been cranked up on high when we got to the room, and although we turned it off and opened the window, the residual warmth overnight interfered with our sleep. The... More

During my first two stays at the Historic Skagway Inn, I thoroughly enjoyed the Victorian décor, hot showers, good food, and resting our Chilkoot Trail tired feet while sitting in the garden. My third visit to Skagway Inn was last Sunday and was unplanned. Having completed leg 8 in the Klondike Trail of ’98 International Road Relay which runs from... More

We had a 2 twin size beds room, a bit old, but OK, the window did not close properly. The bathroom was a tight squeeze but very clean! In spite of all that we will recommend staying as the service was very friendly, very accommodating. The baked French toast was the best ever!

With a little imagination you could see the ladies escorting their gentlemen friends up the stiars and through the halls of this restored brothel. We stayed in Ida's room. Plenty of room, everything was clean, beds were comfortable, food was good. They also drove us to the ferry when it was time to depart without having to wait at all.... More

The best B&B that I have stayed at. All staff were fun and friendly. We had to catch the White Pass train at 7:10, so they made our breakfast early and even gave us a lift to the station. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Our family was in Alaska for 2 weeks and this was one of the best places we stayed at. We stayed in the Alice room which had its own private bath and plenty of room for 4 people. I slept on the porch, which had a nice breeze with the windows open. The owners were very helpful and went out... More
