Anchorage’s Best-Kept Secret!
Pros:

This is great hotel! Sleek, modern and still super cozy. The elegance is noticeable as soon as you walk into the lobby. The design is well thought out, and I truly get a sense of place even though the taxidermy (which is so typical here) is missing. (LOL) The rooms are simply adorable, great parking lot and the Restaurant and Bar Crimson are absolutely first class!!!!

Good first impressions, coulda, woulda been better
Pros:

First time here, and rooms are very nicely decorated - modern, nice complementary colors. Bed was really comfy, and linens are NOT wrinkled - says a lot. Compared to other name brand hotels in the vicinity, - that puts them to shame. Found the pillows a tad high though.
Long line at breakfast - waited 25 min for a seat, and over 35 min for the order. In the end, had to leave without breakfast, as it was time to catch the shuttle to the airport. Am sure it could be better, and apparently, they were overwhelmed this morning.

Charming hotel with warmth
Pros:

I had never heard of the Wildbirch Hotel before I checked in. I was booked by a tour company and I was pleasantly surprised. The warmth of the hotel and the staff were great. The beds were perfect for me with the best throw blankets. I loved the choice of pillows on my bed so i could pick soft to firm. The coffee shop and restaurant on site made the stay even better. We traveling back to Anchorage I will definitely be staying here again.

Stay at the Wildbirch
Pros:

The Wildbirch Hotel is a very nice property at an easily accessible location. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable with lots of outlets.
The hallways were in good condition even with the renovation ongoing on the first floor. Unique artistic touches compliment the atmosphere and create an inviting environment.

Good Place to Stay
Pros:

The downtown location was good - could walk to most places. Quite a few homeless people downtown. Although there was no airport shuttle nor would they take you to the train station that was about 1 mile from the hotel.

The front desk staff was awesome! Very pleasant and accommodating. We ate breakfast there one morning and the food was good and priced a little lower than the surrounding restaurants.

The room was comfortable. The layout of the hotel is very strange. Very long hallways. We were on the third floor - took the elevator to it but still had to go down stairs with luggage to our room - STRANGE!

The gym was good, but we had to be guided there to find it.

All in all - good place to stay.
