Great location, easy to walk to downtown business district and drive to ferry. Room is kind of old but still clean and has everything we need. Great choice with the price especially have breakfast. Will stay here next time.
WEI, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

I wouldn't call this a hotel, it is definitely a motel with pretty standard breakfast buffet fare. While the facility is showing its age and doesn't have much by way of amenities, I will say the bed was very comfortable and I probably slept better there than anywhere else I stayed over my three weeks in Alaska. The location is also good, I could walk anywhere I wanted to visit

The building was a little worn on the outside, but the inside and rooms were very nice. Convenient to downtown Valdez. The breakfast was great!
Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

All around great! I read reviews so when I saw the good reviews and high rating on Hotel Glacier, we decided to give it a try. I am so glad we did! The hotel didn't look like much on the outside but the lobby was nice and clean. Check-In was easy. Staff was pleasant and efficient. Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was very good. $100/night less expensive than another nearby option. We will definitely stay at Hotel Glacier when we return to Valdez and would highly recommend.
Suzanna, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Very basic and dated hotel. Sufficient for sleeping before fishing or cruise activities. 2 doors down from good restaurant. No USB outlets in room…would be a great idea to switch out lamps with ones that have USB ports.
