Coast Inn at Lake Hood

My friend told me about the coast inn. close to the airport with shuttle service. Friendly staff . Its an older hotel but for the price worth the stay

A good place if you’re flying early or returning late.

This place was an interesting experience as it is next door to the largest seaplane airport in the world. It is also next to airport parking. The hotel shuttle takes people to airport parking as well. The hotel was older but comfortable. Piper’s restaurant was expensive but very good. All restaurants are expensive in Alaska. We took Ubers to and from downtown. We were just in Anchorage for two days. We watched the seaplanes take off and land from our room window.

Close to the airport and a convenient shuttle service. Staff was nice and helpful. Hotel restaurant had a nice breakfast and bar at night. Room was clean and comfortable. We only stayed one night but would consider staying again next time I’m back in anchorage!

I just wanted to share my recent experience at this hotel. Our stay was brief, and I initially felt that giving it a one-star rating was unfair. The exterior seemed worn down when we arrived, but I understand we are in Alaska. The front desk area, however, was quite lovely, with some recent renovations that gave the lobby area and hallways an updated look. It's important to note that there is no elevator, and I'm not sure if there's anyone available to assist with bags, as we weren't offered help to our room. Despite this, we traveled relatively light with two 40-lb backpacks and a small carry-on-sized roller. Once we got to our room, it became evident that the renovations did not extend to the rooms. We immediately noticed an unusual odor; the carpet seemed unclean and dated. The bed is so-so. The shower did not drain properly. Coffee and possibly ketchup were splattered on the wall. Our window view faced the side of the building, which might not have been a problem if the room wasn't so expensive and they offered a complimentary breakfast. Our stay was less than 12 hours, and we did not have time to eat at the restaurant. The hotel does offer a free shuttle to the airport.

Perfect place to stay if you just need a place for a night close to the airport. They have 24 hour shuttle to take you to the airport, so we were able to drop off our rental car and get a ride back, and take the shuttle at 430am for our flight out with no issues. The restaurant on site was great too. Just very convenient if you need a place to stay near the airport. One thing: they do NOT have an elevator so you have to bring your own bags up flights of stairs.

Close to airport . Very convenient. 24 hour shuttle was great. Restaurant had great food and friendly employees. Front desk employees were not so great. Not nice, actually rude.

Nice place overlooking the lake. Close to the airport

convenient and close to the airport. Too expensive.

Very friendly staff when we arrived on a late flight. Free shuttle was a plus. Convenient to the airport.
