“Very Alaskan”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2008

If you are after an experience closer to the true "Alaskan", then this is the place for you. Sure, it may not be all prim and proper, and you won't get pampered like a cruise guest, and the driveway is even gravel, but the atmosphere is very friendly, and the people much truer to the "Real" Alaska that I know. The entire experence more closely matches the Alaskan spirit than most places and Teresa can rival the best of Princess and Holland America with her advice on things to do and see.

  • Liked — The Alaskan Atmosphere and access to the backcountry.
  • Disliked — The winter.

“Very Happy With The Chateau”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2008

The Chateau was referred to us by a friend. We were very happy when we pulled up and saw how quiet and wooded the area was. We loved the rustic look of the cabins. Teresa was very friendly and helpful in her suggestions of places to go and sights to see. Our room was very spacious and the breakfast items were plentiful with a variety of choices. We'll definitely recommend it to any of our friends that are traveling up in Alaska. Loved the dog!

  • Liked — The location
  • Disliked — The bed was small, but we were told beforehand.

“Wonderful Hospitality , Good Acconmodations !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2008

I have stayed at the Alaskan Chateau many times with my visitors from the "lower 48 " I have stayed in four different rooms in three of the houses. I have found the accomodations to be nicely furnished and always clean . The bed linens and towels are clean and well taken care of as well. There is a TV available in each room and a nice bathroom and hot shower. The beds are very comfortable as well. The breakfast is provided in each room which has a little refrig and microwave with the food for breakfast as well as other snacks. The owner is most hospitable and solicitous for all the visitors. If you need something she will get it for you , all you have to do is ask. I have been there when she goes out of her way to assist the visitors.
So I personally would highly recommend the Alaskan Chateau.

  • Liked — Location and accommodations

“The Alaskan Chateau - avoid”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 August 2008
1
person found this review helpful

They take your money before they show you the room, but because it's in The Rough Guide, we stupidly coughed up before we saw it. It was cramped, with a low, sloping ceiling, we had to walk about bent double. An unlocked door led to another room. We locked the door but the following day it was unlocked again, and a child wandered into our room ! We had to ask him to leave, and after that were concerned about the security of our belongings. You could either hang your clothes up or sit at the table - not both - because the clothes rail (there was no wardrobe) was directly over the table. The microwave and toaster were on the floor - we had to kneel to use them. The TV did not work most of the time. The electrics were a dodgy collection of wires behind the TV. The ceiling was so low we could not sit up in bed. The "breakfast" was instant coffee (no kettle) and packets of junk food. There was a plastic table of filthy junk outside the door of our room, sea shells, dried grass and some old plastic fabric. The blinds did not keep the light out (Alaska in June, you need good curtains against the constant light) We solved the hanging clothes problem by draping some of our clothes over the blinds to block some of the light.

To be fair, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was OK. But she already had our money - what could we do ? We'd booked and paid for 3 nights, but left after 2. The most unpleasant accommodation I have ever stayed in. We felt really gullible for allowing ourselves to be ripped off like this, and have vowed never again to pay before we see the room.

  • Liked — the bathroom was clean
  • Disliked — taking the money before you see the room, the room itself, the junk food breakfast

“Not satisfied!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2008

people found this review helpful

Dust was very thick under the bed. The sheets were torn. Payment was collected immediately upon arrival. So there was no backing out after seeing the place. Large pet defecation surrounded the entry door to our room. The supposedly hot breakfast consisted of stale crackers sitting on top of the rerigerator.. I was very disappointed for the price we had to pay. I would not recommend this bed and breakfast inn.
Just had an all around bad experience!
