Property Description

Welcome to the Highliner Hotel — where Alaska's fishing heritage comes to life. As the first fully automated hotel in Anchorage, we provide seamless, contactless check-in with secure access codes—no key cards or front desk lines required. A passion project inspired by the life of commercial fishermen, the Highliner Hotel seamlessly blends the comforts of life off the boat with the untamed allure of the open ocean. Each fishing-themed room tells a story of adventure, resilience, and the hardworking spirit of our fishing communities. Each room comes equipped with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, Smart TVs, Keurig coffee makers with K-Pods, microwaves, and a mini fridge or freezer. For added comfort, our Deluxe Rooms feature full bathtubs instead of showers. Note: Highliner Hotel is a three-story property with stair access only; an elevator is not available.

Pros:

Room was really small for one person. My stuff for my 5 day stay was everywhere. The fan made knocking noise, the TV remote was missing and did not work for 2 days. The lights flickered in the bathroom during the day but not early in the mornings. Will not be staying again.

Pros:

Clean room, comfortable beds (pillows could use an update). Only down was the led flashing light from the coffee shop…maybe they could unplug it for evening hours.

Quaint hotel with quiet neighborhood
Pros:

Super friendly and helpful staff. Excellent Hightide cafe in lobby with breakfast and lunch options. I would definitely stay here again. There are a few steps to navigate to checkin and get to rooms. Within walking distance to lots of food, shopping and city buses.

Pros:

Very clean and comfortable. Everything worked. Plenty of hot water in shower. Needed to walk a few blocks to restaurants and shopping if you didn’t have a car. Keyless entry for hotel and room. Didn’t interact with staff but they texted us all the information we needed in plenty of time. Could here footsteps from room above at night-not big deal.

Nice Clean Hotel Near Downtown
Pros:

Nice clean hotel, comfortable bed friendly staff. A little coffee shop in the lower level and a nice bakery breakfast-lunch place a block away. Easy 4 block walk to downtown. We arrived early and they were able to store our luggage until the room was clean about 12:30 for early check-in. No elevator, but they helped get luggage upstairs
