About Anchorage Hotel

Complimentary breakfast is served in a casual restaurant, which also offers a selection of lunch and dinner options.

Positive Reviews

A wonderful location

positive:

The staff exceeds expectations

A warm, friendly and professional staff greets you at check in and is eager to please you for the duration of your stay. They are happy to accommodate most any request, large or small, and can easily point you in the direction of the local sights, shopping and dining establishments.

Negative Reviews

negative:

Some rooms are smaller than others

Some of the guest rooms at Anchorage Hotel are smaller than others. If you need extra room to manoeuvre or are travelling with lots of luggage or more than one person, you may want to take the opportunity to upgrade to a larger room in order to be truly comfortable.

negative:

The Wi-Fi is spotty

Although the Wi-Fi in the guest rooms is complimentary, you may find that the speed and consistency of the Internet connection is often slow and spotty. This could be problermatic for those with multiple devices or if you want to get an email out in a hurry. Luckily, the Wi-Fi connection in the public spaces is spot on.

negative:

The hotel is mid-facelift

Although many of the guest rooms here have been recently updated, many have not and the facilities are looking a bit drab and old. If you find yourself in a room that has not yet been attended to, be sure to request a room that has been refurbished.
