We opted to take our dog with us on this trip and booked this hotel because pets were permitted. We were disappointed (but not suprised) to be moved to a smoking room when we indicated that we had a dog with us. After seeing how some people do not control their pets, I do understand, but it was a major... More

I am a salesman from Anchorage and stay here at least six times a year. It is the best place in Valdez. Civic center is accross the street. It is clean and service is great. The restaurant can be expensive so just eat in the bar it is delicious. Get a view room! More

The Valdez Harbor Inn was comfortable, accomodating, and probably had a view of the harbor, although with several feet of snow it was hard to visualize what the town actually looks like. The only thing missing was a night light in the room, which would be a nice addition for people who forget to bring one. More

I would never stay at this hotel nor will I ever recommend it to anyone. I took a road trip thru Alaska's back country. I thought that staying in a franchise hotel would guarantee better quality than a B&B or different hotel. Boy, was I wrong. I asked for a non-smoking room but was placed in a room that stunk... More

I am truly sorry that we did not meet your expectations. I would like to be able to correct this but I have no information to go on. We are very busy at this time of year. If you would call my Hotel I will be very happy to find out what actually transpired. More

They had a problem with their key-card coding machine. But they found a work-around. They beefed up the desk staff, so they had someone available to open your door when you needed it. I love these guys. By the way, the updates they've been working on for a while are really starting to look good. The new bedding is really... More

Right from when we arrived the greeting at reception was not very warming and kind, we were quickly checked in and left alone to find our room. This was one of many hotels we stayed in during our round trip around alska, we were promised a harbour view but arrived to find that they had all been taken therefore left... More

Stayed at the Best Western in Valdez as part of a road trip in Alaska in Sept. This hotel is right on the habour in the town centre. We stayed in a good sized room, with digital TV. Clean room, with a bit of a view to inlet (I think you can get rooms overlooking the habour) It had a... More
