Historic Anchorage Hotel

Location
Anchorage, Alaska

Established in 1916, this landmark hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. For dignitaries and celebrities traveling to the new territory of Alaska, the Anchorage Hotel was the premier place to stay. Luminary guests have included artist Sydney Laurence, legendary mountain man Bob Marshall, and Will Rogers and Wiley Post spent two nights here before their fateful flight to Barrow. Over the decades, the once-lustrous hotel changed locations and eventually fell into disrepair until it was purchased in 1989 and restored to reflect its original heritage. Today's guests will enjoy the traditional decor and genteel touches that defined the original property more than a hundred years ago. Located in the heart of the city's walkable downtown, it's is conveniently located to shops, dining and cultural destinations, and the Iditarod sled dog race starts right outside the door. The boutique hotel offers 26 elegantly furnished rooms featuring plush beds with luxury linens, sitting area, large-screen cable TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, coffeemaker with gourmet coffee and tea, and private bathrooms with hairdryer and Aroma Botanicals bath amenities. The hotel also has a fitness center, Grizzly's gift shop, and a complimentary full breakfast buffet served in the classic old bar.

Alaska's Gold Creek Lodge

Location
King Salmon, Alaska

This remote fly-in wilderness lodge located on 16 forested acres on the Naknek River near Katmai National Park is among Alaska's most exceptional accommodations. The main lodge and individual cabins and yurts enjoy territorial and river views along a stretch of water that's famed for some of the best salmon and rainbow trout fishing in Alaska (including from the lodge's 200-foot private dock). Wildlife surrounds us here, and a viewing platform overlooking the river offers a safe place to observe the bears, moose, bald eagles, waterfowl and occasional sea lions that frequent the environs.

Alaska's Gold Creek Lodge is a two-generation, family-run operation, where a select number of guests enjoy an exclusive experience of "bush luxury" and genuine hospitality. The deluxe main lodge provides a central gathering place for gourmet meals featuring freshly caught fish and other locally sourced fare. The expansive space features a high wood ceiling, soaring stone fireplace, leather sofas, rustic wood tables and chairs, and trophy fish mounted on the walls for added ambience. Accommodations are in individual private log cabins, private rooms in the main lodge and deluxe yurts with Alaskan character. Each cabin has a wood stove, two full-size beds, en suite bath, private deck overlooking Gold Creek and the forest, 40-inch flat screen cable TV, Wi-Fi, Keurig coffee maker, and a small fridge stocked with cold drinks. The main lodge suite has three rooms that share a large common upstairs lounge area with comfortable couches and a flat screen TV. Guests wishing to stay in a yurt must make a special request. Each yurt has a queen bed and lounge area, but restrooms are located 25 feet away, requiring you to walk outside the structure.
