Best location in Seward, hands down! Clean as a whistle. Had a delicious loaf of Blueberry lemon bread waiting on us with fresh Orange juice. We had the hit breakfast three mornings and it was outstanding! They love their guests! Thanks a million!

Not recommended!! Noises easily heard from next rooms- toilet flushing, showing, chatting, etc. Tiny bathroom and filmy mattress. One of my worse experiences at a B&B.

Stay in the main house. The views are fabulous. Where we stayed the ground floor studio was not comfortable. Lighting was bad and it smelt of cigarette smoke. It was nice to have the main house to go into which if we hadn’t had a lot of luggage would have chosen

Fantastic Views and Delightful Hosts
Front Door Bed and Breakfast was a great place to stay on our visit to Seward. The room and bathroom were fairly small but comfortable. The shared living area was fantastic with incredible views from every angle. We had a lovely chat with the manager, Sarah, who was extremely friendly and gave us plenty of ideas about activities in the area. We didn’t go to the sister property for breakfast, although we heard from other guests that the breakfast was phenomenal. However each morning there were delicious fresh baked goods in our kitchen as well as fresh fruit, juice, coffee, tea, and everything that was needed to make a complete breakfast. We spent some great hours sitting in the living room reading and watching the fabulous clouds and sunlight dance on the glaciers.

We truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. After we saw the ocean view picture on the website, we immediately canceled our earlier booking in another local hotel and chose this one. It was a right decision! The view from the window is breathtaking with ocean waves nearby, snow mountains afar, and sea birds flying low and high, far more better than any pictures that could possibly depict. Imagining you have a cup of hot coffee in hand and sit in Tom’s rocking chair in front of huge window, life is as good as you can get! The house is located in the historical downtown next to the Waterfront Park. If you come to Seward by cruise or train, you can take Free Shuttle at cruise terminal/train station and drop off at Stop #11. The house is about 20-30 meters from the shuttle stop. We used Free Shuttle to our cruise for next journey. It is very convenient (and free). The unit has everything we expected, upscale, comfortable, clean and welcoming. The owner Tom is such an amazing gentleman to chat with, knowing so much about salmon, AK history back to 17th century, local tribes, glaciers, and global warming! His advice (to have layers on) made our day during our one-day-long boat tour to glacier! Also, don’t miss Sarah’s sour-dough waffle for your breakfast - it derives from the sour dough made 23 years ago!! We sincerely thank Tom to share this wonderful house with us and highly recommend to you all!
