Guest Reviews

• Mary K (10/5): Perfect Seward stay - Great location - several food, shopping, sightseeing options within a short walk. Can’t get any closer to the water without staying on a boat! Super clean and updated room - very comfortable.
• Bob (10/5): - Amazing harbor view. Quiet in the evening because it seems that most guests are going fishing early in the morning. A nice room.
• susan (10/5): - amazing location
• Nicole (10/5): - Very helpful & friendly staff, so appreciated! Lovely room with a view and balcony. Recommended this place to a friend now planning an Alaskan trip!
• Angelique (10/5): - Beautiful views from room. Loved the room decor. Everything was great!
• Susan (10/5): - Location on the water, walkable to restaurants, beautiful lodge, spacious, all around great place
• Marianne (10/5): - We loved it. The view unbelievable!
• Tina (6/5): - Beautiful view from the one bedroom. There is no office staff, so you’re on your own with luggage up the steep,long staircase. Theres no parking on site. You have to park a bit down the street and loading is done in the driveway of a busy marina. Full size kitchen, but beware there’s nothing in the kitchen. You need to bring your own stuff. The unit was gorgeous and watching boats were fun. It had a great covered deck but we wouldn’t return because of the lack of onsite parking, no elevator, no baggage as distance for the second floor.
• Vachaspathy (10/5): - Excellently maintained. Very comfortable beds and blankets. Upgraded bathroom supplies and very neatly maintained. Felt like living in a four seasons hotel
• Brenda (8/5): - The area was good, the view was awesome! The room was good except for the noise above you. You could hear people talking and running
• Thelma (10/5): - Parking is a distance away for handicap.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great stay - Great stay. Easy check out. Fantastic view.
• Scott (10/5): - Great stay! Family loved the house.
• Siddharth (10/5): - Such a beautiful location and view, and the paintings inside the room were so lovely. The rooms are very well done.
• Wendy (10/5): - This place was lovely and cozy. I loved being right at the Marina. Beautiful views. Rooms where a little small, but loved it still.
• Laura (10/5): - Soft comforters on the beds
• Lisa (10/5): - Wonderful stay. Very clean with helpful staff. Beautiful location.
• Thomas (10/5): - Great location for cruises and to enjoy the Seward area! Very comfortable accommodations - highly recommend!!!

• Kevin (10/5): - This place was great! The room was very comfortable and the view out was amazing. We would stay again in a heartbeat! Kevin/Terri
• BARBARA (10/5): - Beautiful waterfront property. Location is very convenient. Rooms were clean and quiet with a gorgeous view. Can’t wait to return !!
• CHARLES (10/5): - Accommodations are great, but second to the outstanding views.
• Brian (10/5): - Great place to come back to after your daily adventures. Staff were great. Deck it open to anyone to use so not much privacy but wasn’t a big deal. I would definitely book again. Got lucky and the Mermaid festival was going on. It was a blast. Locals at the Breeze were fun. Glad I spent my 50th in Seward.
• Susan (10/5): - Great staff and beautiful scenery!!
• Kathleen (10/5): kathy - amazingly beautiful view and location. staff is great. room comfy.
• Marcy (10/5): - Perfect location. Great place to sit on back porch and watch the water and boats go by. This is not a place where there is a front desk that is always open, however, everyone who worked with the charters or maintaining the rooms were extremely friendly and willing to assist.
• Marcy (10/5): - Rooms are all different so if you have specific needs make sure to contact property. Everyone was wonderful.
• Ana Randy (10/5): - The staff was excellent and the views were great.
• Melanie (8/5): - A bit outdated facility. Wish they gave me the better view room especially when these rooms were available. Otherwise the town was pretty and people were friendly there. The ride was really pretty from Anchorage.
• Sabrina (10/5): - Nice small lodging. A cozy room with a beautiful view of the harbor. Very attentive and personable staff. Enjoyed our stay here.
• Jennifer (10/5): Perfection! - This was our first time traveling to Alaska! The Safari Lodge was my favorite place to stay on the entire 9 day trip. The staff was so attentive, the rooms were welcoming and clean. The location was perfect. And the view, from our balcony, was amazing!
• Sherrie (10/5): - Beautiful views
• Bruce (8/5): - Beautiful location on the water. Very nice manager/owner. Rooms are nicely appointed in a mountain theme. The bathroom is small, but adequate.
• Robert (10/5): - Excellent location. Excellent staff.
• Susan (10/5): - Great view and outstanding hospitality. Steve was incredibly kind, offering to help with luggage and a trip to the cruise terminal.
• Allison (8/5): Beautiful ambiance - Wonderful location - close to everything I needed and the view from my room was fantastic! Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone.
• Mark (10/5): - We had a wonderful time at the Safari Lodge. The room was very clean and we loved sitting out on the deck overlooking the marina! We also enjoyed being able to walk to restaurants and shopping. The staff at the lodge were very friendly - We would definitely come back!
• Nick (6/5): - Nice location. Clean rooms. Parking a fair distance offsite with no drop off spot, which was very inconvenient in the pouring rain. No front desk staff outside of 9-5 business hours. Most uncomfortable beds we experience on our entire trip.
• Greg (10/5): - Perfect local- i will be back.
• Eric (8/5): - Great staff, very helpful and friendly. Great location. Bathroom could be cleaner “around the edges”. Toilet seat could be replaced.
• Stephen (10/5): - Great property with all of the amenities for the area. The only alert is to beware of a surcharge for the use of credit card for payment.
• Marie-Helene (6/5): - This is a 2 stars lodge facing the harbor. Very small room, tiny shower, no A/C for ventilation in the room. I would prefer to have a bedding with conforter sheets covering the blanket. This is a convenient place to stay to join the early cruise in the morning. Very basic lodge for the high price.
• Carla (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and incredibly accommodating. It’s my favorite Seward lodging and I’m looking forward to a return visit!
• Judy (10/5): Location, Location, Location - The staff was great, our room was unusual. The size was great, whoever mounted the television (which I think must be an 85") must have had too much to drink. On a side wall so you could not actually use the TV. When we opened the drapes to the sliding door there was a large wagon/trash container outside our door, HUMMM. . . The room itself was excellent, even better was the location. I would highly recommend to anyone.
• Kristen (10/5): - My room had an awesome view and the desk service people were helpful and nice. People walking on porch outside a bit as they came in with fish. The parking was some distance from lodging. I wish I could checkout earlier than 9:00am so I could be at Major Marine for my Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise…I literally walked in due to the lateness.
• David P (10/5): - Clean, amazing view, helpful staff.
• Chris (10/5): Safari lodge - Love the view the room was decorated so cute staff was helpful would highly recommend this place
• kenneth (10/5): - Staff was great and very helpful . Nice location
• James (10/5): - I liked being on the harbor.
• Jonathan (10/5): - It was great!
• Bill (10/5): - Great spot right on the Bay! Super convenient / able to easily walk to eateries; coffee shops; KFNP cruise boat. Very personable/helpful owners. Enjoyed sitting out on lanai and watch eagles. View across Bay to mountains was stunning. Especially at sunset.
• Ruth (10/5): - Love being right on the dock
• Kenneth (6/5): - We stayed here the night before departing on our cruise. It was fine for one night. Small guest rooms.
• Joseph (10/5): - Loved everything about this place. Perfect smaller hotel on the marina with great views. Convenient to a bunch of restaurants, shops and fishing charters. We also used their fishing charter, which my son and I will be talking about for years to come…. It was an incredible week at the safari lodge.
• John (8/5): - Easy and convenient to train and cruises.
• Jake (10/5): - Great option for staying right at the docks in Seward. Staff are great and very accommodating, worked with us holding our luggage before and after checkout with the train times.
• Lynne (10/5): Perfect stay in Seward! - Great place to stay in Seward. Our room was on the first floor and had a patio and beautiful view of the harbor. Easy walk on the boardwalk to lots of restaurants.
• Kyle (8/5): - Great location by the marina, with amazing views from the patio on the back side of the room. Room was decorated nicely and you can tell care is given to maintain the facility. Staff were also very helpful in ensuring an easy check-in and access to the room and parking.
• Terry (10/5): - Loved this property! The view alone was worth it!!!
• Sharon (10/5): - We had a two night stay at the Safari Lodge and loved every minute. It was quiet, within walking distance to restaurants and the cruise pier. The room was charming and spotlessly clean. The owner greeted us when we arrived and our name was on a chalkboard plaque on the door. We had an amazing view from our covered back porch, of the marina and the cruiseships in port. I will absolutely stay here again next time. It was perfect.
• Alejandra (10/5): - Perfect stay before our cruise.
• Robert (10/5): - Nice rooms on water
• Tonia or Kent (10/5): - What a great place to enjoy the mountains and town. Central located and walking distance to shops and bars. We had a tiny issue and fixed it in no time and accommodated us. Staff was friendly and helpful.
• Julie (10/5): Great place! - This cute place was just what I needed for my stay prior to a cruise. The room was clean, bed was comfortable, and it had everything you would expect. It is located near everything (I walked everywhere, except to the cruise ship). The staff were super friendly and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again.
• Lauren (10/5): - Great location with a water view
• Robert (10/5): - Clean, comfortable room with a great view of the local mountains. I will definitely recommend it.
• Kenneth (10/5): - We liked being able to view the harbor of the patio door and having a deck to walk out on and see boats coming in and out. It was nice to walk down the boardwalk to see the charter trips bring in their catches. Even being next to the launch was quiet. We only wished it was not so rainy out, but we still had a good time.
• Kevin (8/5): - Real convenient, great view of the harbor, plenty of interesting walk to restaurants. Dark room, strange layout, bed frames beware, legs are very near the edge of bed stubbed toe more than once.
• Glenna (10/5): - The Crow's Nest (Executive Suite) is a spacious and very comfortable accommodation, probably the best in Seward. It is also, as my wife declared, seeing the view over the harbour marina from the back balcony, a setting straight out of a romantic novel.
• Heather (10/5): - 10/10 recommend! We absolutely Loved this place
• Cassie (10/5): - This was the cleanest property in all my Alaskan adventure! Staff was super friendly at check in and checkout. The view was unbeatable and it’s located right next to my new favorite coffee shop! Definitely staying here everytime I visit Seward.
• Suzanne (10/5): - Great staff and location!
• Howard (8/5): - Right on the wharf, amongst restaurants and shops
• Carla (10/5): - We loved this property located directly on the harbor! The room, amenities, and location were all outstanding, along with a very friendly, helpful staff. The next time I’m in Seward, this will be my lodging of choice.
• William (10/5): - Close to boat launch
• steve (10/5): - Location, Location, Location. On the water. The views off the back deck were fabulous.
• Winicjusz (10/5): - Place was lovely
• omar (10/5): - We stayed in the apartment so this review is for that. Lovely location and an amazing view of the harbor. Right in the middle of everything, I enjoyed the views of the fishermen hanging up their catch at the end of the day, all from the balcony. One feedback is to do something about the natural light window in the bedroom that does not have a blind or curtain. When you lay down on the bed the mirror on front reflects the light of the window and it’s like a lit lamp all night in the Alaskan summer when it never gets dark. Otherwise all good.
• Danielle (10/5): - Best stay in Alaska hands down… wish we could’ve stayed here longer
• Roy (10/5): - Right on the waterfront. Good selection of shops and restaurants. Great view!
• PETE (10/5): - Great location. Friendly staff.
• Robert (8/5): - Nice rustic room. Lots of things to see and do near by. Tv so so. I would stay again.
• John (10/5): - Very nice place to stay that's convenient to Kenai Fjords NP & boat tour. Great view of harbor from room & balcony. Lots of little shops and restaurants that are walking distance. Front office was super nice and accommodating.
• Eric (10/5): - The staff was very helpful here. We would have liked darker blinds on our slider and window, we draped blankets over them to darken the room. Also some lightbulbs were burned out in our room and we didn’t discover the fan until the 2nd night and the 1st night was quite stuffy. The deck is shared and someone tapped on our slider at night which was a bit creepy. The room decor was fun and the bed was comfortable. The view was incredible! Thank you for a great stay.
• Anne (10/5): - Great lodge right on Seward Harbor. Beautiful bay and mountain view. Clean, very comfortable bed, great shower. Easy walk to dining, shops and bay cruise departure.
• John (10/5): - Beautiful views
• Regena (10/5): - The property was quiet and clean and right on the water. Our view was spectacular. There were nice shops and dining within walking distance.
• Susan (10/5): Best place to stay - Very clean and beautifully decorated room. Located so close to all attractions. Service desk and employees so very nice. Would definitely stay her again. Eagles just right outside my deck window. Bed was so comfortable.
• Haley (8/5): - The view from the shared balcony outside the room is beautiful
• Robert (8/5): - Room a little small, but it's a fishing lodge. Clean, quiet, great view, right on the marina. Would have no problem staying there again.
• jacqueline (10/5): - It was right on the water. Very clean and convenient.
• Andrew (10/5): Great choice - What a great place to stay the room and the view was magnificent. Great location, had a very good breakfast across the street. You have a reserved parking space about 200 yards down the street no problem.
• Holly (8/5): - On a clear day, the view from this property is amazing! The beds are comfortable, and the property is in good condition. The staff also did their best to accommodate all our requests, even though they aren't always on site. Thanks for a great stay!
• edwin (10/5): - Was great place and very cute
• Darryl (10/5): - Nice spot overlooking the boat launch. SUPER helpful and friendly staff. Super. Several times went out of their way to be helpful (with bags and storage - we rode the train to Seward so there was some timing challenges - all overcome by the staff).
• Tori (10/5): - Perfect location. Staff very friendly & helpful. Room clean.
• Budhaditya (10/5): - Excellent location and staff. Eddie was prompt and always accommodating. We had really early check out request and he made it work smoothly. Highly recommend!
• William (8/5): - Check-in was confusing. No one in the office. Had to call a phone number to locate the key. Parking was across the street; the location was not immediately obvious. The room was nice with a good view of the harbor.
• Rodolfo (8/5): - It’s location is really good if you fish or just walk around the area.
• Leslie (10/5): - Awesome staff, location, and accomodations. Great views of harbor. Greatly enjoyed our stay.
