We stayed there for a night on our way from Alaska to Seattle. For the price, it was the best hotel we stayed at in our 7 day trip. Pretty fancy hotel with all amenities and big rooms. Good wireless connections. 10 mins from the airport. We had to leave early in the morning so could not try their breakfast.

I stayed at this hotel on my recent hunting trip. The hotel staff very friendly and helpful! It is in a great location and not only close to Anchorage International but close to lake hood (largest sea plane base in the world). Quick trip, McDonalds, Pizza all within walking distance. Free breakfast.

Our connecting plane to Anchorage was several hours late, so had to cancel our reservations elsewhere. Since I made reservations over cell phone, forgot to ask about AARP or AAA rates. The clerk recalculated the rate and gave us the lowest rate. Late in the evening this hotel gave us a room. It was clean and large. Some renovations going on, new carpet in hallways, drapes, not major construction. Very helpful with the reservations and providing rides on the shuttle to other locations in the city. Breakfast was good. There were 2 separate buildings, we were in the back building. I would not give the building 5 stars, but would give the staff a full 5. I would certainly stay here again, especially if I needed to get to or from the airport. It is close to the airport; a longer drive or cab ride to downtown Anchorage.

This hotel is an excellent value. Deluxe breakfast, very nice rooms, comfy beds, clean. We stayed here on 3 different nights during a 2 week trip to Alaska. They were in the process of renovating the rooms. We must have stayed in the new rooms because all of them were really nice. The shuttles to and from the airport were very prompt. An added benefit is that the hotel is half a block from a budget car rental office. You can rent a car there and save the airport fees.

Great stay always

Friendly staff and large rooms. Clean and close to airport. They have a free continental breakfast and a free shuttle to and from the airport. 3 miles to downtown. We wish we had stayed here instead of moving to a downtown hotel. If you have a rental car, this hotel is fine for traveling downtown, only 5 minute drive and free parking

My wife and I were fortunate enough to make a four night reservation at the Alex Hotel in Anchorage. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and that bed was SOOO comfortable. Shortly after our arrival in Anchorage we had to make a significant change to our travel plans which required us to stay in the hotel for nine nights instead of four nights. Hotel management could not have been more accommodating if I had owned the hotel; they were able to confirm a nine night stay instead of four, even during a time of heavy booking. What a relief it was to have a room available when we needed it! We will look forward to staying in the Alex Hotel on our next trip to Anchorage.

A little about us first....There were 3 of us traveling together to Alaska for a cruise from Whittier to Vancouver. Myself and Husband are early 40's and have been to Anchorage 2X prior. My friend was 35 and this was his first visit. Unfortunately, due to work schedules, we had very limited time in Anchorage and only needed a hotel when we arrived very late at night (11:00pm) and were leaving on the train at 9:45am the next morning. For that short of a stay, I could not justify spending more money for a hotel room...and rates are very high in the summer in Anchorage. Our previous visits, we had stayed at Homewood Suites, Hilton Downtown and Sheraton Downtown. I do travel a fair amount for work and typically prefer to book at a business chain I am familiar with, at least until I have been to the same place more than once. I can honestly say, for the price, I preferred the Alex Hotel better than the other 3. It's not as "posh" as does not have as many amenities but for almost $200 less

Had a great stay at this hotel during my visit to Anchorage. The complimentary breakfast included a wide variety of choices at a great time frame. The staff was friendly and helpful. Added bonus, free shuttle to and from the airport and downtown. Great location. Really enjoyed my stay!

First let me tell you a little about us there were 4 of us staying in one room we were there do to a tragedy that happened to my very young nephew, this was a very trying and hard time for our family. The moment we arrived at this hotel The staff was fantastic and management went above and beyond in helping us with everything we needed. The room was great beds real comfortable and breakfast is very good. I have stayed in many hotels and have been treated very well is most all of them But the people working and running this hotel is the best I have ever experienced. I will defiantly be staying at this Hotel again on my vacation visiting family.

5 stars!!!

Close to airport

Nice place, friedly staff, airport transportation 24hr, awesome hot breakfast. Room clean and big. Hotel close to lots of placrs.

My mother, sister and I stayed here in june of 2014. The many reviews I read of negative remarks originally scarde me. But as budget wise travelers I chose to try it out. It was a great decision. We were checked in immediately upon arrival. After a long stay at the anchorage airport that was great! We were welcomed to the hotel, after the shuttle picked us up, and our rooms were clean. Breakfast was decent. Our bellies were filled. The shuttle even dropped us off downtown at the summer market later in the day! (Beware of prices in the market for souvenirs. ...go out and venture the city once done with the market...cheaper souveniers) Ok, back to hotel. Its worth what you pay and two stars. Expecting glamour is ridiculous but, quality of envirnoment and amenities are just right!

Great beds and huge television. I would come back.

It was easy to find and near the airport.

I love the service counter staff, all were extremely competent in their duties. Awesome shuttle service, can park and fly, very good continental breakfast, and excellent staff

Great breakfast don't.forget to.try out the tunnel

Great Hotel, clean and quiet

Arrived at 2:15 am on a late flight. Easy to find, very quick checkin, rollaway requested was already in the room and ready to go. Good value in high priced Alaska.
