“A pilot's paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

If you love watching float planes come and go, this is an amazing place to stay. You can also see jets landing at ANC. This B&B was thoughtfully designed - there are 4 rooms, but none share a wall with another, so you rarely hear the other guests. Bill, the owner lives downstairs and has his float plane parked in front. Everything is decorated with an airplane theme. Two rooms have a balcony overlooking the lake, but the other two rooms share a sitting area with a balcony in between the other two, so really, everyone can enjoy the views. There's a full kitchen that the guests can use all day, and breakfast is help yourself. There's lots of food and choice. There's a coin operated washer and dryer $1 a load. Our room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The planes do make a lot of noise, especially the jets, even in the middle of the night. Light sleepers may want to wear earplugs. The windows do not open for fresh air - I expect it would be too noisy anyway. The Bravo room has a corner window with the best views.

“What a find!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2011

person found this review helpful

Alaska was on my Mom's bucket list and we had decided to spend one night in Anchorage and then take off and explore the country. After landing we checked into the Lake Hood Inn and extended our stay to three nights. The rooms are incredibly clean, continental breakfast was great. Very close to airport, with a great view of the lake, where seaplanes are taking off throughout the day. Great place to stay and the price is right!

Room Tip: Love the rooms with a private terrace overlooking the lake.

“Best choice we could have made”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2011

Accomodations were excellent - service was over and above the normal. Bill was just wonderful to deal with both from our home (planning) and in person (once we got there)

Would not hesitate to recommend Lake Hood and would definitely stay here again.
