In summary, beautiful views, comfortable beds, but almost unavailable, Internet, and poor housekeeping
Pros:

The hotel has great views and a convenient breakfast bar and the beds were comfortable . We were there June 24-26.However, the Internet was down more often than not and I had to log in and several minutes later lose the connection and have to log in again. When I asked the front desk they seemed unconcerned and said they were working on. It never happened. We had better Internet at a remote hotel outside Denali, and for a tourist town like Seward for a hotel do not have working is hard to accept or understand. We had some takeout from a local restaurant and put it in the refrigerator. When we checked several hours later, the refrigerator was not plugged in and turned on. I had to move the bulky furniture away from the wall to plug it in it then started working. A third problem was the HVAC unit was leaking when he came into the room.

Excellent location - very convenient from cruise port and to train station!
Pros:

Front desk staff was very helpful. We were able to utilize the free hotel shuttle from the cruise port which was great! Also loved that we were able to leave our bags with the front desk and they took care of transporting them to the train station - very nice touch!

Great location.
Pros:

Location, location, location. For what I needed to do in Seward, this location was great

Cons:

One (slow) elevator and no steps. So the one elevator was the way to enter and exit.

Marina quieter than expected. Breakfast disappointing. Bed comfortable. Greenwashing. Free parking.
Pros:

The room was comfortable once they moved us from the one where the AC unit was not functioning properly. The marina was surprisingly quiet.

Cons:

Breakfast was extremely basic for the price. The only cereal were sugary, processed things. No muesli or granola. The weird "cheese" inside the prefab omellettes was gross and I scraped it off. The greenwashing was everywhere. We hung up our towels and they replaced them anyway. The dishes may be compostable but they are going to a landfill. Instead of yogurt and jams in bowls they are in plastic, single serve containers.

Would stay here again
Pros:

The location of this hotel is perfect especially if you booked a tour with Major Marine Tours. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean. This is not a luxury hotel, but it's competitively priced for the high season in Seward. It's expensive, but there are no bargains in this location over the summer.

Not worth the money
Pros:

Easy dock access

Cons:

Room smelled bad. Amenities not as listed. Broken things in room. Seemed to cater to charter guests over hotel guests.

Look at Other Options
Pros:

This hotel shares first floor with Major Marine Tours and lobby area is overrun with outsiders not staying at hotel. There is real hotel lobby.
Breakfast area is crowded and lacks seating. Both days I asked to sit with other hotel guests. The WiFi was not strong and had issues with the signal.
Harbor side rooms face a walkway and tours dock there creating additional noise.
We stayed two nights as part of Marine Tours package but our 7.5 hour cruise left from a dock a short walk away from hotel. Which defeated the purpose of being at hotel. At $500 a night, I would look at other options. Parking at hotel was limited as well.

Overall we had an excellent experience at this hotel but for the internet and television issues
Pros:

Room was spacious. Staff were wonderful. Location was great - super close to train station and excellent marine tour left from dock behind the hotel. Breakfast was fine but the same each day.

Cons:

The free internet was extremely spotty - connection kept dropping and even when connected, it was extremely slow.

Great views of the harbor
Pros:

Very helpful staff, quiet even though our room faced the harbor. Clean, comfortable rooms, breakfast included. The hotel also was the location of meeting point for harbor cruises. So it got crowded in the area hotel people get to eat breakfast... some cruise people took advantage of the situation. There is a nice 24-hour souvenir shop i n the lobby. Location is convenient, but you may have to walk a ways.
