A friend and I stayed at the Copper Whale Inn in Anchorage when we found we had four days between the end of a tour and catching the train to Fairbanks, which only runs on Saturdays. We chose the Copper Whale Inn from the internet as none of the hotels offerred by travel agents seemed to be what we wanted. Close to night clubs etc just didnt appeal. We were a bit nervous about this, but need not have worried. The Copper Whale was reasonably priced, comfortable, convenient, and more importantly, felt like a home away from home. Friendly, helpful staff and an excellent complimentary breakfast made our stay in Anchorage a very pleasant break. We were warned that it can be noisy, being in the CBD, but despite being on the ground floor were not disturbed by traffic noise.

We stayed at the Copper Whale Inn in June of this year. It is pretty centrally located in downtown Anchorage, an easy 4 or 5 block walk to the main area of downtown. We were shocked to find that there was no parking available when we arrived. You either had to keep feeding the meter or park in a garage several blocks away. The room was small, although nicely appointed. The breakfast and breakfast area were nice. I didn't personal LOVE this hotel but there was nothing really wrong with it either. No room to complain, just not as big of a fan as others. Probably would look for something else next time. I just didn't think it was worth the money.

I was in Anchorage for a quick trip in September. What a great place to stay!!! Very centrally located, close to restaurants and shopping. Took a day tour which left from the Westmark hotel a few blocks away. Nice view of inlet from my room. Breakfast room was very cozy. Such friendly staff. The next time I visit I will stay there again!!! Highly recommended.

I had a FANTASTIC experience! The Inn was very cute, comfortable and well decorated. My room upstairs had a wonderful view and was very clean. I found the bed to be extremely comfortable. Noise was never a problem. The staff was kind and helpful. I got in at 1am and they did a great job of leaving instructions. Breakfast was displayed well and there was a variety of items to chose from. The location of the Inn allowed for easy access to plenty of attractions.
