Established in 1913, it is one of the oldest operating hotels in Alaska and retains much of its original architecture and decor. Its central location makes it an ideal base for exploring downtown Juneau.

One of the primary attractions close to the hotel is the Alaska State Capitol, which provides insight into local governance and history. Additionally, guests can easily access the Juneau-Douglas City Museum to delve deeper into Juneau’s past. For the nature enthusiasts staying at the hotel, Mount Roberts Tramway is just a short distance away, offering breathtaking views of Gastineau Channel and beyond. Moreover, local dining and shopping options are plentiful around Franklin Street.

Despite its vintage charm, one downside may be its basic amenities compared to more modern accommodations—guests often note that some facilities reflect their historic origins. However, this is part of its allure for those looking for a slice of history.

In summary, the Alaskan Hotel & Bar offers proximity to key attractions and a unique historical atmosphere but may not appeal to guests seeking modern luxury.
