阿拉斯加飯店及酒吧(Alaskan Hotel and Bar)

Bizarre experience. Great potential in this old gem. But it does need work. Excellent location. Rooms are hit and miss. We did not like the first room at all. Small and dingy. They nicely found us a second room. We loved it. Overlooked the street so a bit loud one night. The black bears walking down the street night three were hilarious. Like they owned the town. Be forewarned- most metro west coast cities have massive homeless problems. Juneau had some too. Overall they don’t harm anyone, just be prepared. This is an experiment as a property but we got used to the charm.

I read *many* mixed reviews before staying at this property, most complained about the noise, due to the hotel being over the bar. Yes, it is noisy, yes, you can hear yelling from the bar downstairs and occasional music,-- but it's nothing awful. If you are a light sleeper-don't book it. If you live in a city or anywhere with some traffic noise at night, you will be fine. You can also request a room that is NOT over the bar, and those rooms are quiet. This hotel is not at all ADA accessible, there are no elevators. It is smack dab in the heart of downtown, with Rainbow Foods (grocery store) in walking distance, Foggy Mountain (shop for outdoor gear) in walking distance, and two famous and cheap restaurants, as well as a post office--less than 30 seconds from the front door. Deckhand Dave's Fish Tacos and the Alaskan Crepe Escape are some of the best and cheapest food in town, and they are right by it. I felt safer in this location as a young solo woman than I would've on the outskirts of town--yes there are homeless and yes there are drunks, but it is also bustling with tourists 24/7. It is warm, clean, fresh sheets, clean bathrooms. I had some of my best sleep ever in this hotel! Checking in is a bit of a pain, you have to be very assertive and get the bartender's attention--they don't staff the hotel so the bartender must walk over and check you in. French cleaning staff are loud and rude and childish, but you barely interact. Book it!

Staff was friendly but the check-in procedure involved contacting the bartender in the first-floor bar, and that took some time. The room was facing the street and there was a lot of street noise (not the hotel's fault obviously). To their credit, after I explained my circumstances (I had contracted Covid-19) they let me check out very late (3 PM) so I could go directly to my next hotel, and didn't charge me for a second night, even though it was within their rights to do so. It was much appreciated.

This is a vintage 1913 hotel. The plumbing and electrical have updated yet fixtures are historically “vintage.” The hotel was clean. The bed was “vintage” the room was small. Not all rooms have been updated to have an en-suite. Many rooms share the facilities “down the hall.” We stayed just one short night so we did not get to experience all of the joys of 1913 Juneau.

Are calling was leaking got looked out of hotel for hours no service at all had bar music blasting all night no sleeping no relaxing at all do not recommend at all unless your a party person. Some rooms have a shared bathroom why to expensive for what it is

Quaintly colorful old place, reeks of its time, but comfortably updated. Rooms rather lacking in workspaces though. Ask for kitchen equipment if you've got a kitchenette if they don't offer it. They do have some!

A few things about this place: -It's a shared bathroom and the bathroom was not super clean. The shower (shared) had wet towels hanging in it also. - It is above the bar and I stayed on Karaoke night and it was extremely loud! - There are no elevators or people to help you with your luggage. I saw two elderly people struggle to get all of their luggage up to the third floor. So, that is something to think about when booking this place. If you want a place to stumble back to after you have been drinking, this is your place. If you want any sort of peace and quite or something clean... Stay away.

An interesting historical hotel. It could use updating in rooms. It was clean, staff was helpful, but the rooms, bed, furnishing felt old & had seen better days. It is in a good location for walking around Juneau.

Had a late night check in, Bartender did not know how to check us in, therefore unable to give us room key. Had to sleep at airport due to this.
