Alaskan Hotel and Bar

Room and kitchen

It’s right downtown. It’s a funky old historic building with a great vibe. Walking distance to everything. Very “Alaskan”. It isn’t fancy, but it’s cozy and fun.

Great staff to help and feel welcome!

This hotel is old and amenities are non existent.
No elevator. No air conditioning. Hotel claims water is not safe to drink but does not offer at least one complimentary water bottle.
The spring mattress is terrible, worn out and broken. Not a relaxing experience.
The toilet and the shower light are super noisy. Musty odor in the room.
The carpet has nails sticking out which is very dangerous. Parts of the carpet are cut out and patched with fraying sides.
There is a kitchen with an oven and range however there are no dishes. No pots nor pans so how are we supposed to use it.
Many hotels will consider one hour complimentary late check out. This one doesn’t.
The staff is basically indifferent and the music from the bar that is part of the hotel is loud and obnoxious.
We understand it’s a historical building but other than elevator and air conditioning they could have done a better job on the interior of the room and what they offer to allow a pleasant stay.

Location

Location. History

There was a gang outside the entrance of the hotel at 2 am that were a huge disturbance.They were spilling out of the bar next door stumbling around and managed to cause my granddaughter to start crying in fear. I went down to the front desk ..twice ..and asked that they call the police. They refused .Twice I asked .Twice they refused. One of the night clerks did go out an d chit chat with some of the drunks smoking some funny smelling stuff then he Just came back in and stared at the wall. Unbelievable.
I don't know the laws in Alaska about open drinks and pot consumption on the sidewalk outside a bar and hotel with kids trying to sleep inside but I'll be checking tomorrow.
I could go on and on about the safety and condition of this place but they seem to act like they are untouchable to any rules
and safety regulations.
Kichican Alaska seems to value the safety and comfort of visitors with families alot more than this place.

Great location and housekeeping attention to detail

Location is centrally situated, with a bar downstairs. The bar is cool to visit. They let us change rooms after we reported dark mold and stains on the lower mattress. Generally as clean as you can get an old grimy hotel. They said they'd replace the mattress for the future.

We bought our own food at the grocery store so we didn't have to overspend.

The history of the hotel and the bar. We also liked being able to stream Netflix from the room.

The location was amazing. That's about it.

So this is as described, a historical hotel!! It feels like a 1900’s hotel. You can get rooms with shared baths and showers or pay a little more to get private of both.

Staff was great. Very willing to help out and make stay enjoyable!

Conveniently located next to whatever you might want in downtown Juneau.

Oroginal hotel in downtown juneau can't beat the location
