Glacier Hotel is nothing fancy. Not a ton of curb appeal, and definitely a bit worn around the edges. But it is great value for Alaska. And my room was pretty big and fairly comfortable. Others have commented on the nice breakfast and good water pressure. Those are definite pluses. So was the fast Wifi. Staff was helpful.
This property was much nice inside than it looked. While the room was no frills, it was clean and comfortable. The fact that the Prospector Store was right next door, thrilled my husband! The breakfast was very good. Would stay again.
Clean, comfortable, updated, good breakfast, reasonable price

Breakfast was good, needs sinage for what is available to have made to order. Was told, "No waffle batter." But a staff member was served a waffle. The cook was very cordial.
Not good room temperature control, too hot and unsafe to open a window on the first floor.
