The downtown location is excellent, the building and my room were decorated with antique furniture of the era, my bed was comfortable, and the linens were good quality. The lower 12\" of the room were not so good, with chipped paint, old carpet, and sharp edging on the carpet by the sink. Plumbing worked well. My ensuite bathroom was small, but so were the shared bathrooms. The 2nd floor is reached only by 26 shallow steps, with handrails that don't reach all the way to the top or bottom. Staff were great about hauling my bag up and down, but the stairs were difficult for me. My room was away from the bar and the street so I was not bothered by noise. Juneau was unusually warm during my visit, and so was my room. I was able to open my window, but it had no screen, and my view was a bunch of broken and discarded building materials. If I visit Juneau again, I really don't know if I would stay here.

We chose this hotel because it was within walking distance to the Cruise Port, where we were departing from two days later. The website stated that much of the hotel had been renovated. If so, apart from the mattress, the renovations must have occurred in the 1950's. The new mattress sat on a creaky, noisy wooden frame. The 2nd story room was small and cramped. No air conditioning. Three windows faced down to the street below. Only one window opened. The other two were taped shut, with a bent curtain rod held up by a piece of unfinished wood nailed to the window frame. The one window that did open didn't stay open. We had to prop it open with a stick. No screen on the window. An old box fan could be put in the window for air circulation. Bathroom was microscopic. Only one at a time could fit. There was a medicine cabinet for toiletries, but no shelves in it. No place for clothing except an antique wardrobe, which was filthy on the inside. One ceiling light. No lamps. The stairway leading to the second-floor rooms was a death trap. Seemed very much like it might have been the original from 1913. Going up was an adventure. Going down led me to prayer. Having spent the day exploring the town, we returned to the room where the thermostat read 89 degrees. At bedtime, the street below was populated with about a dozen weed-fueled (legal in AK) men, shouting back and forth to each other, and bothering passing tourists till after midnight. Other than that we had a great time!!!

I was only there for 2 nights and that was plenty. I was on a budget and traveling solo. The room was super clean and the bathroom too. The TV worked and that was really all I was looking for. It is in the heart of the downtown Juneau area. It is a perfect place to discover all that Juneau has to offer.

The location of this hotel is its strong point. I had a room with a bathroom and the bed was comfortable. The old fashioned radiator in the room kept the room hot with no adjustment. A fan was supplied and it helped. So you are staying in one of Juneau’s original hotels from the gold rush days and it showed. Stairs are wide and steep. One night with earplugs to hide the street noise was fine. I

This is an historic hotel, which is just what I was looking for. It’s got tons of old world, charm, and a really vibrant and noisy bar downstairs. Things quieted down by midnight and there were complementary earplugs which I appreciated. But you have to know what you’re getting yourself into at this charming location in the heart of old town Juneau. If you’re up for an Alaskan adventure, don’t miss it.

This is a unique place. It has old rooms, steep stairs, small rooms, and a really funky vibe. It has a great location in the middle of town. Those expecting a Holiday Inn will not like this place. But it has soft beds, clean towels, and is an memorable experience. The staff were helpful and helped me carry things up the stairs. My room was quiet in spite of the bar next door. I would stay there again.

First, we were put in a room with a single bed that we requested, but the couple we were with was also put in a room with a single ged and they needed separate beds. Instead of just moving them to another room with 2 beds, they made us move to a different room ( also with a single bed like our original room.). We all had to haul our luggage up to the 3rd floor and back down to 2 - there are no elevators and no one to assist with luggage.
The room itself was bizarre. There was no sink in the bathroom, and the one in the corner of the bedroom completely opposite the bathroom had no mirror. Other than the bed and an old armoire there was no other furniture other than a single straight chair with no desk or anything to sit at. The only thing the chair was good for was to put stuff on.
Thankfully it was only one night, and the location was good.

This is a hotel oriented towards nightlife rather than, you know, sleeping or resting. They have loud shows at the attached bar, the clientele was loud, and the alcohol store across the street is very rowdy with a lot of yelling and very loud conversations. We discovered this after we arrived, when we mentioned that we wouldn't be able to rest with all the noise the staff did not provide a refund and we had to find another (not cheap) hotel. The building itself is a pretty neat historic building but I kinda like being able to rest in a hotel.

I got the cheapest room with the shared bathroom skeptical at first , but it ended up being a great stay . Bathroom was spacious and I didn’t have to fight over a bathroom with others as I had anticipated , there’s also multiple if one is occupied . Never had to wait it was always available and clean , it also had a key pad to enter . Felt safe and secure . Even considering I stayed during peak summer hours. The hotel staff was their 24/7 at office besides the maids , any time there is a need for new sheets or towels the maids were on it . Easy check in and easy check out . Gets slightly loud considering there is a bar down stairs but they close down early and it’s not to loud unless there is an event . I would say a 10/10 considering the vintage feeling and modern amenities it was well worth it for the price and it’s in walking distance from anything in the downtown area . Definitely helps if you just plan to stay local . I would highly recommend this hotel and I plan to stay in the future if given the opportunity.

Room was clean. Supplied a fan. Unfortunately in the front of the hotel is the gathering place for the homeless DJ of Juneau. The NOISE ORDINANCE was not enforced by local law enforcement. So we had to close the windows to go to sleep. Having to get up at 4 AM to catch our flight.
The ordinance should have been enforced for 10 PM. We stayed overnight on a MONDAY!

When I checked in, I was arriving by seaplane and I had three heavy bags. I was on the third floor, and there is no elevator. I asked at check-in if I could leave a bag I did not need to carry to my room at the desk and retrieve in the morning before my 7 AM flight. I was told this would be OK. However, 645 and the front desk was still not open. I had to fly away, leaving all of my clothes after living in Alaska for a month. Then I called many times and have not received any calls back about my luggage. They also charged a different card than the card that was used to reserve the room. The clerk that checked me in should totally be fired total incompetence.

The location is convenient to activities in the area and shopping nearby. Be aware there is no elevator in the hotel and being built on the side of a mountain makes it difficult to carry luggage to the floors with rooms - especially rooms that are upgrades with private bathroom facilities. (Lots of steps).
There is a bar on the ground floor which has karaoke some nights starting around 9 PM and then open mic nights some other nights- which can go until 2AM. Being a old(rustic) hotel there is little sound insulation and the music/noise comes up into the rooms above quite easily...especially if you are on 2nd level directly above the bar. Lots of fun for people who are partying - but not conducive to sleeping in my experience.
The staff was helpful anytime I needed anything. There is no phone in the room - so if you need the front desk you will have to call on your cell phone to the hotel.
A true piece of Alaska Gold Rush era historical accommodations - but be ready for a \"rustic\" experience at a fair price.

Hi, the place was great and we would definitely stay again.
The only negative was communication.
After booking we were informed via Hotels.com that the desk is only manned until 4pm, and if we planned to arrive later we had to make prior arrangements with the hotel.
Despite a call, text and message we could not get a response.
However, we arrived at approximately midnight and was greeted at reception, so all was fine in the end. But it was stressful \"not knowing\"

It was super cool experience, however the pictures didn’t make it clear that you’d have communal bathrooms and showers, nor did I see it listed anywhere that we wouldn’t have one in the room. Not something I necessarily minded, but they didn’t have any ventilation in the bathrooms so it felt and smelt really dirty. Like you were showering in a Porta potty, it was hard to feel clean staying here. It being in the heart of downtown town made the experience worth it! I would recommend staying here I just think not knowing you’d be sharing a bathroom/ showering area with no ventilation threw me off a bit.

We didn’t have a private shower/bathroom and the shared spaces definitely need to be upgraded. The walls and tiles are peeling. Most nights were quiet but one night was karaoke at the bar downstairs and it was extremely loud past midnight. I recommend for a quick stay and good location not for luxury.

We enjoyed our stay at the Alaskan Hotel very much! We knew it was an old hotel, built in 1913, but we enjoy unique, historic properties. That is not everyone’s preference. We had the “shared bathroom” experience because we booked last minute due to airline cancellations. That was fine with us - the bathrooms and showers were very clean - but again, that would not be everyone’s cup of tea. It was very well located for our needs so location was honestly our first concern. The staff was so nice - they let us check in early when we showed up from the airport, which we so much appreciated! Overall, it was a good but brief stay and we would book them again if we ever return to Juneau.

The hotel was charming and old. You feel like you traveled back in time. The hotel is on the strip and was very convenient but at night if your room is near the street the local drunks can be loud at night. We tried to use the washing machine onsite but there is no coin machine or soap so you have to fend your self of you want to use the onsite amenities. There is parking behind the building for customers which is very nice because there is very limited parking in town.

Old hotel in need refurbishing. There is a “old plumbing smell”, and everything looks dated. There is no elevator. Staff and location were excellent.

I would not stay here again. While the hotel advertises itself as the oldest hotel in Juneau, its age really shows, and the property is in serious need of refurbishment and updating. the headboards and phone had a thick layer of dust!

One of the biggest issues was the noise. The bar downstairs played extremely loud music until 1:00 a.m. every night, and even noise-canceling headphones did not block it out. Getting a good night’s sleep was nearly impossible.

There is also no elevator, so guests staying on the second or third floors must carry heavy luggage up multiple flights of stairs. The room heating was provided by a small plug-in radiant heater, and the “air conditioning” was simply a fan.

In addition, the front desk was often unattended, making check-in and getting assistance inconvenient. There is no airport shuttle service available, so we had to arrange and pay for a taxi ourselves.

Overall, the listing did not accurately match our expectations, and I believe there are much better hotel options available in Juneau.

The bed was well made, and the location is incredibly convenient. Though it is shockingly easy to lock yourself out of your hotel room, and if th hotel isn't open yet, you're outta luck

Very cool experience staying at the oldest hotel in Alaska! Definitely a different vibe than a standard hotel if you are looking for a unique stay. Our room was clean and the staff was friendly. We enjoyed the location very much being able to explore downtown Juneau.

Odd, old hotel, felt like it was channelling all the hotel/saloons in movies, would def vote for most haunted hotel in Juneau. Easy to walk to things, no lobby to hang out, you have to go to the bar. Did what i needed it to.

The bathroom needs some work. Wall peeling behind sink. NO towel racks to hang up any of your towels, not even by the sink. Seemed clean enough, just worn. The bed was very comfortable!

Room was dated, cold, drafty and bathroom floor needs to be replaced. No place to put your clothes and no towel racks in bathroom. Bar down stairs was excessively loud until after midnight. Will never stay here again and will not recommend

The building is very old (the oldest hotel in Alaska) but it was a great stay. I never had any issues. I couldn't open my window because I was on the 2nd floor and the building looked to be built into the mountain so there was a lot of foliage right outside my window, but they provided a box fan. There was a Daddy Longlegs spider on the ceiling but I left him alone and he left me alone. I would stay here again.

Basically clean. Good for one night. Not a good option for a long stay.

This isn’t a hotel that everyone will like. It’s old and historic. It’s quirky and odd. There is no elevator. Many rooms don’t have a private bathroom and the rooms I’ve stayed in that do leave a bit to be desired. They are not too diligent about maintenance— stuff will be broken. You will hear noise/music from the bar downstairs. It’s also cheaper than most of the accommodations in the area. This is a place to stay for a night or two. If you want comfort and convenience this isn’t the hotel for you. This is a basically clean place and if you like interesting places to stay, this is it.

The staff here are very friendly, and my room was exactly what I expected. The hotel is very conveniently located downtown, which, expectedly, comes with downtown noises. There isn't any AC, but the room cooled down at night to a comfortable level. The \"biggest\" issue I had was that the bed was very squeaky and was loud any time I had to shift around. Overall, I had a good experience here.

We spent one night at this hotel. It was lovely and clean. Close to all shops and bars. Would certainly recommend Alaska Hotel and Bar to any travellers wanting accommodation which is value for money.

Unique experience. A look at old Alaska and Juneau. I enjoyed it. Not a place for people with mobility issues for sure. The only down side wasn’t the hotel but the numerous cruise ships. Plan to do things as early as possible to avoid the crowds in the afternoon. Unless you like crowds.

I chose this hotel for the history and the vibe of it all did not disappoint. I knew to expect an older facility so it is an old hotel with slanted floors and visible wear and tear. But it was a really fun experience to stay in a hotel with such history. My only complaint is there parking. There are only about 6 actual spots and you drive down a steep hill behind the hotel to get to the small lot. It is in bad need of some work at the bottom of the hill. My car kept scraping the pavement going over that part. But other than that, the hotel was great. It's in a location with stores and food all around it. Would definitely stay again.

An adventure

This is a funky, venerable old hotel. Our needs were met. About 60 steps to the top floor, no elevator.

It was a historic building with a lot of character. No elevator so you have to carry your luggage upstairs.

Tiny rooms, very antiquated. Be happy that there is electricity. Major amount of skinny stairs with nails protruding, very steep with inadequate railing. Our queen room with ensuite was about 12' x 12', that included the bathroom which was put in the closet. It did have a small electric stove right next to the sink - odd placement. Extremely pricey for what you get. Almost $200 a night in a place that, while historic, has not had any real improvements since it was built in the 1800's. The light fixtures are all 50+ years old. It is right in the middle of downtown, so it is very convenient to shopping, bar hopping, and dining.

It's a beautiful place with an old school feel to it. I love the history of the place, the nearly over the top of bar/performance area, and the people, of course!

Truly, an oddball hotel, but Juneau and Alaska are oddball places. Would definitely stay here again if in Juneau. Keep in mind this is an old hotel serving a rustic community. Great stay regardless.
