When you prepare for your first trip to Anchorage, you will probably read a lot of reviews. You will be surprised how many of them contain appalling descriptions of terrible service, dirty rooms (to say nothing about bathrooms, where descriptions are even more picturesque), and these include almost all hotels. Some of them (but only a few) included even Inlet Tower, but because for it there were few, I chose to stay in it. I can tell you that I didn't witness even one bad thing there. My room was very clean and very warm, the bed - comfortable, the bathroom - spacious, the water - hot and abundant, and the service I could only describe as very good, without any problems. The free wifi works, although the speeds are not something to brag about. Inlet Tower provides a free shuttle service to and from the airport and the railway station, which is really nice, especially if you plan to use public transport and arrive or depart during the weekend. The complimentary breakfast is much better than the useless ”continental breakfast” that most US hotels will give you. In other words, I am very glad with the choice I made - but I also doubt that all other hotels that I considered but didn't choose, are as bad as many of the reviews say. I haven't visited any of them, only saw a few while walking around Anchorage, but I saw a few of their shuttle buses while I waited for mine, and I can't believe that people providing such a service with nice and well maintained vans, cannot take care of their rooms. So my personal opinion is that at least the most appalling negative reviews show some kind of competition wars, not so much objective opinions. But I can only be sure that Inlet Tower is a nice place - and I will be glad to stay there again if I visit Alaska again.
Very Good
