This was the best hotel we stayed at in Anchorage. I loved the food at the rooftop restaurant. It felt like an old-school fancy restaurant. The stores were definitely several notches above other hotel stores. Unique things and not a bunch of junk. The room was quiet and clean. I wish we stayed here the whole time. Cruise crowd was a little bit of a bummer but I can see why they would want to make this place available to exclusive cruises .
