Excellent and enchanting
Pros:

This hotel is brilliant. It’s clean. It’s spotless. The staff are friendly. The cleaning staff are friendly. The reception staff are friendly thank you to Maria Jessica and Kameron who were delightful to check in the end on the four occasions that I checked in over 2 1/2 weeks. It’s got a wonderful atmosphere. They work very hard to keep it clean. It is now the place for me to stay in Anchorage. I would not stay anywhere else. Well done to everybody at the wild Birch - please keep it up. I stayed in a few hotels in Alaska and frankly their idea of cleanliness is shocking this Hotel was wonderfully clean completely spotlessly clean so thank you. I enjoyed my stay with you.

Cons:

Nothing

Absolutely splendid and fabulous the best hotel in Anchorage the best
Pros:

Excellent , brilliant , charming , awesome !! The best hotel in Anchorage . I have stayed here on four occasions in the last three weeks -and for those of you that read all of my prolific reviews from around the world , know that I am very fussy, but very honest . This Hotel is the best, the staff are amazing - particular shout out to Maria, Jessica and Cameron on the front desk - thank you very much - they have been marvellous checking
me in on the Last four visits , they are a huge asset to this Hotel and its charm, some of the best I have experienced on a front desk , which is the Window for any Hotel and create the first impression- so thank you to all three . Hotel is spotlessly clean - well done to the cleaners - thank you to the doorman who recognises me as I walked in and gives me the most wonderful welcome and to Nikel in the restaurant - a brilliant waitress, so polite and professional. I have stayed at various hotels in Anchorage, but I will not be staying at them in future. This is definitely my place to go and I have advised all of my associates and colleagues and friends to do the same- well done for the wildbirch well done. I hope this helps fellow visitors to Anchorage . -:))

comfortable staying in the city centre
Pros:

The hotel was very comfortable, located in the city center. We felt safe and comfortable there. All the staff, from the receptionists and security to the cleaners, electrician, and waiters, were very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and cozy. Breakfast was excellent. The hotel restaurant is also highly recommended. The hotel also has parking.

Cons:

We had to be careful when using the kettle, as it could blow the fuse. We were instructed by an electrician and used a special socket. The windows faced the street, and sometimes there was noise from outside.
