All around great! I read reviews so when I saw the good reviews and high rating on Hotel Glacier, we decided to give it a try. I am so glad we did! The hotel didn't look like much on the outside but the lobby was nice and clean. Check-In was easy. Staff was pleasant and efficient. Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was very good. $100/night less expensive than another nearby option. We will definitely stay at Hotel Glacier when we return to Valdez and would highly recommend.

Avoid Anadyr Adventures Company @Valdez We tried to voice our complaints, but it’s clear that the owner, Scott, does not manage things properly. A quick look at the 1-star reviews confirms that he ignores customer concerns. We want to warn all tourists: never book with this company. What we experienced was unacceptable—discrimination and humiliation from their guide. No one should pay money only to be treated this way. Even other customers confronted Scott about the guide’s behavior, but nothing was done. This business does not deserve customers, and we hope travelers stay away before they face the same mistreatment.

I wouldn't call this a hotel, it is definitely a motel with pretty standard breakfast buffet fare. While the facility is showing its age and doesn't have much by way of amenities, I will say the bed was very comfortable and I probably slept better there than anywhere else I stayed over my three weeks in Alaska. The location is also good, I could walk anywhere I wanted to visit

Valdez, if you please.

We (me, Trophy Husband) are on a two month road trip from Nevada to Alaska and back. And we are hoteling it. So, I'm constantly reading reviews and looking to save some money if possible. This is why I picked the Glacier Hotel. They were more moderately priced than some of the other hotels in town. The Pros: The young man (I believe his name is Jamar) who checked us in was outstanding! Personable, helpful (we had an issue with no TV remote and he went above and beyond to find us one) and professional. The rooms are decent size and have the standard amenities; TV, microwave, mini fridge, hair dryer, windows with screens (this matters). Breakfast is better than average with something for everyone. Water pressure is incredible and shower water gets nice and hot. No frills and is centrally located/easily walkable to most places in town. Cons: No elevator. Only two stories but if you're an overpacker then your Trophy Husband may be grumpy after everything has been hauled upstairs. No AC. Use those windows to your advantage. This is an older property and shows its age. Travel Pro tip: We splurged on a Venty fan (portable, compact, rechargeable oscillating fan, on Amazon) and it has saved this trip - very few places have (a need for) AC. I can't recommend this compact fan enough, especially here! Use an eye mask, ear plugs and/or sound machine (app) to drown out some of the noise from late arriving travelers who have no clue it's as late as it is in the busy summer season.
