Top Seward Hotel Reviews

Hotel Seward

8/10 Good

"Seward doesn't have much to offer on the hotel front, and we were looking for something historic or with a little charm. The Seward Hotel is clearly the best offering in that regard. It has the best location if you're looking to do anything in Seward beyond catching a harbor cruise. The hotel itself does have some charm (the taxidermy display is a bit over the top, but it's Alaska, after all), and our room was large and comfortable. For the price, we would have liked a bit more service for our room -- we were there three nights and the only time a hotel staff member came in our room was at our request to replace the battery in the beeping smoke alarm. Like many other hotels, the Seward seems to have used the Covid epidemic as an excuse to quit providing room cleaning, though we don't remember being told there wouldn't be any. At the very least, trash service would have been nice."

The Tides Inn

8/10 Good

"We liked the location of the Tides, an easy walk to restaurants and other things in Seward. The check in was easy using a code provided by staff. The only significant problem was a strong odor in our room. The room appeared to be perfectly clean but the musty/maybe moldy odor was very bad. We tried airing it out, made coffee and popcorn in the hopes of hiding it, and purchased a deodorizing spray, but it persisted. We got used to it after a while in the room but if we left and our lungs got fresh air we came back to the strong smell."

Northern Nights

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at this beautiful B&B in Seward, Alaska, was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The room was so cute, cozy, and exceptionally clean. It truly felt like a special little home away from home. Our host was incredible! She was so warm, welcoming, and thoughtful, and she went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Every morning, she prepared the most unbelievable breakfast for us, including fresh eggs and delicious coffee. She even had homemade bread available throughout the day, which was such a wonderful touch. One evening, she lit the fireplace for us so we could come downstairs and enjoy dinner by the fire. It was such a cozy and memorable experience, and it really made us feel like family rather than guests. And the view of the mountains breathtaking! Being able to look out the window and see them amazing. Steps from Resurrection Bay was absolutely beautiful. It was the perfect setting to relax and enjoy the beauty of Seward. Walking distance from stop 11 from the free stutter. My girlfriends and I truly enjoyed every moment of our stay. The hospitality, the beautiful room, the delicious food, the thoughtful details, and the incredible views made this place so special. We would definitely, definitely come back anytime! This B&B will always have a special place in our memories from our Alaska adventure. ❤️🏔️✨"

Safari Lodge Adventure Camp

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very spacious, clean, up to date. The area where it's located is very pretty. We loved the setting. The shower room was separate from the yurt itself and is a shared space, but it was clean and had most everything we needed. I have 2 recommendations for the shower room- a way to tell if its occupied or not- like an outside light that turns on when its locked and off when it's not, and a stool or something to sit on- since its a wet room, to be able to put shoes and socks on dry. The room could use a small table to sit and eat at- even a little table between the chairs, but we easily made do. A little confusion on the check-in process, my fault probably. Didn't know we had to go to the office downtown first, but thankfully someone responded to my text pretty quickly with help and an answer. The toilets are port-a-potties on site, but that is in the description. You can't drive right up to the yurts, but there are sturdy carts for managing your luggage available for use. We would stay here again."
