I came in for a doctors appointment in Anchorage and stayed here with my husband and two dogs. It was nice to be out of the city and I have the gorgeous views everywhere. I was able to get the rest and relaxation needed after the appointment. The rooms are spotless, comfortable, Spacious and beautiful views out the window. This is our go to spot whenever we come to Anchorage because it’s out of the city, quiet and everything we need is right there. Cannot say enough about this place.

The Brown Bear Saloon and Hotel was clean, comfortable, and cute. The staff were super friendly and we enjoyed chatting with other guests as we ate in the bar downstairs. Nice little park across the road from the hotel. This place is not fancy or luxurious, but it has everything you need for a safe and comfortable overnight stay.

Our booking through Expedia did not work so we arrived without a reservation but luckily they had a vacancy. Overall, everything you’d expect from a roadside motel/bar. If you’re passing by, I’d recommend you stop in for a drink at the very least.

Hopping bar, but not loud. Rooms are kind of tired and old, but clean. The stairs to the rooms are ready for replacement — I would not want to climb those stairs in the rain or ice!! The location on Seward highway is beautiful — close to some great hiking areas, birding, the boretide, beluga sightings.

Not as pictures, places is smell like moldy and most scary are there some mice came out from the heat vent and ran around in the small rooms. Will have nightmares just to crush one night. Turn around and don’t come back to this place

I was traveling all night and tried to check in a little early, no chance. They finally checked me in an 1hr late. 4pm. This is a motel and the cabins they advertise are false. Rooms available are actually very small and on top of the bar and restaurant. Trash and old batteries all around the property. :-(((

It was a great stop along the Seward Highway. The room was basic but clean. It was everything we needed for the night. If eating dinner at the bar on a Wednesday arrive early since they sell out of burgers. Only issue is the picture is not accurate.

The rooms were on the small side but absolutely perfect!!!! There was everything that you needed from a microwave to a mini fridge with a freezer to a coffee pot with coffee with the extras. The rooms were immaculate and the beds were super comfy. The bar below was great after a long day just to have dinner and an ice cold beer from tap. Sara who worked the bar was kind enough to let me know one night that there would be music and what time it would be done. I had my 2 pups with me and could not have asked for any place safer or more relaxing for them and myself. Definitely our go to spot when in the area!!! Thank you so much for everything.

The room was extremely small. No chair nor room to put a chair. Would be a great stopping over place for one person like a backpacker/hiker needing a dry place to lay their head for a night. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and staff was pleasant. Price was fair compared to other way more expensive places.

Unique facility
Very comfortable bed but we had to move it out from the wall which left a very small walkway on both sides. The room had everything needed except for kleenex. The bar downstairs served good burgers.

Doors are not safe closures. It’s above a pub so don’t plan on sleeping good before midnight. Waitress was nice. Owner was nice. View and access to trails was great.

Very good value
Very good value for money given cost of rooms in Anchorage and only 30min to airport. Room was basic but clean and had microwave and fridge Bed was comfy. The food was decent and freshly cooked. We didn’t feel it was a welcoming bar though and the staff were a bit unfriendly to start with. Didn’t really make us feel too welcome and a bit in the way when we tried to play pool. However we did get ice for the room and the bar tender seemed to get more friendly as the night wore on.
