Aspen Suites Hotel Sitka

Rooms are comfortable you get a coffee 24 /7 staff is very friendly. Probably the best hotel in Sitka bedding is OK all attractions are walkable from the hotel. There is no breakfast. The hotel has 100 rooms. There is a shuttle from the airport free of charge.

We stayed here after disembarking from an Alaska Dream Cruise. Room was clean, quiet and comfortable with nice amenities for the bathroom and coffee to help us wake up. Service at the desk was OK but sometimes we saw no one standing there so had to say "Hello?". Then someone would come fairly promptly. Appreciated the courtesy service to Sitka Airport although it came a bit later than expected. (Well located for touring Sitka on foot.)

We stayed here two nights prior to going on a American Queen Voyages cruise. The staff was very friendly and helpful. If you are a CPAP user they have distilled water for you! Nice feature as you will find everything in Alaska costs more. We appreciated having the kitchenette (Sink, Microwave, good sized refrigerator/freezer). There is a market about two blocks from the hotel. Not a huge market, but they had enough to get food for two breakfasts and a dinner. Saving you some money from eating out for every meal. There were some grumpy gus's on the cruise that were agitated that they hotel didn't have a breakfast spot. You have to remember that you are in a town that has ~13,000 residents. So logistics are different in this neck of the woods. If you need to be pampered at every step of your life perhaps you should not go to rural Alaska. Note: AQV did have breakfast catered in on the day of departure. The hotel is in a central location. City bus stop not too far away that can take you to the Fortress of the Bear and/or the Raptor Center. Much cheaper that paying for a cruise excursion, plus if you plan properly you can avoid the crowds that build at the venues when there are several ships in port. Just check the bus website before going, when the port is busy the bus schedule changes. Good hamburger place a cross the street. Pizza parlor will deliver to the hotel if you are too tired to venture out at the end of the day or if they weather is not to your liking. Within walking to Russian Bishops house, Sitka Sound Science Center and Totem park. Almost all flat sidewalk, so if you have good mobility you can do it.
