We stayed at this hotel for a couple of nights in May 2008 and we liked it very much. First I wasn’t sure if we should stay here on our first night in Alaska since it’s 40 miles from Anchorage and I thought that we would be too tired to drive there after our long flight. I’m happy that I... more

We stayed for two nights in June and couldn't have been more pleased with the resort and the people. We arrived around 10:30 in the morning and went to the front desk with the idea of leaving our luggage while we explored Girdwood. We were pleasantly surprised that a room was available and we were able to check in immediately.... more

Staying here was the best part of my visit to Alaska. The view from 7 Glaciers Restaurant was incredible. Our iternary planner had booked us one night, but everything was so nice we came back for another night. The beds and pillows are so comfortable and both rooms we stayed in had a beautiful view of the mountains. Very clean... more

Paid $378.48 for a room with double beds (6/25/08). What a disappointment. 1) Room Service (turndown) threw everything that was on the bed, onto the floor. Found some items under the bed. 2) 5:00am Chainsaw motor running outside by the ski lift 3) 6:30am wakeup call came at 6:43, when I called to notify them of this, they claimed that... more

Girdwood is beautiful. One would imagine that staying in a huge resort hotel in this area would be heavenly. And, indeed, the natural setting among glaciers, mountains, and trees in the summertime would permit a guest to forgive the blips, errors, and mis-steps of this montrosity of a hotel. But there is really no excuse for poor service, ill-trained staff,... more

If you are a typical Alaskan tourist, your hotel is a crash pad, the real point is outside your door. We arrive late, on the way from Denali to Homer and just need lodging for one night. Don't take me wrong, the hotel is first class ( my wife did find it a bit dirty). No continental breakfast ( hey,... more

We brought a 3 family group of 10 to the Alyeska Hotel in Girdwood for spring break. The service at the hotel was excellent - from the smiling and personable housekeeping staff to the wait staff and desk staff , valets, and ski school and ski shop personnel. From the moment we made our complex reservations of adjacent rooms for... more

This hotel has been featured on Travel channel and touts a world-class restaurant and a luxurious stay. None of the above is true. We stayed for 1 night as a "treat" as part of an 8-day vacation to AK (2nd trip). We visited the property the first time we were in AK and decided to stay for a romantic weekend... more

The hotel itself has an understated refined rustic woodsiness about it. Our king room was on the smaller side but we had great views facing the mountain/tram. Next time, we'll opt for a suite. The upside is that the room was very clean. The bathroom was as pictured but the faucet had come out of its place and had been... more

My husband and I went on a week long vacation to Alaska in April 2007, and spent four nights at the Hotel Alyeska. Our main reason for staying here was to try the mountain skiing in Alaska. The hotel decor is elegant. Beautiful wood paneling in all the public places, leather couches in public areas, a giant diorama of a... more
