More affordable option in Sitka that is no frills but has a helpful staff and a shuttle to the airport.

Plan ahead and avoid troubles associated with overbooked hotels. Don't believe all the bad reviews, make your own opinion. We enjoyed the Baranof lodge and it's staff. Be patient, it's a small down and they share housekeeping and shuttle driver. We will for sure stay again at the Baranof lodge

4/10 Fair

Staff helpful, especially Felecia. No elevator, no drinking classes (not even the plastic ones), no room service……sheets never changed and we had to go downstairs to get clean towels, no telephone, back downstairs to find out how to get trash cans in room emptied, we were there for 6 nights. Shower was great and beds comfortable

10/10 Exceptional

I only stayed for 1 night but the hotel is in a good location. In walking distance to downtown. It’s clean, has an airport shuttle throughout the day, staff is friendly. The only downside is it is a 2 level hotel with no elevator so you need to haul your own stuff up stairs so request lower floor in advance if you can’t handle that.

Great Stay in Sitka!

I stayed for 9 days, visiting my daughter who is stationed at the Coast Guard station. Room was comfortable and clean. I asked for a couple of extra pillows and a blanket and was given them right away. Everyone at the front was very helpful, nice and always cheerful. The hotel is in a great location to almost all areas of Sitka. We ordered a taxi every now and then, but walked to most locations from the hotel. Fridge and microwave in room were both used and worked perfectly.

A Pleasant Surprise!

This was a last minute booking for a last minute trip, and I was pleasantly surprised! The room was exceptionally clean. I love that there were "real" tissues available. It was honestly about the small details. I did have a very early checkout, and the night clerk was obviously not prepared to see me, but that's ok. The location was great, everything in town was within walking distance. There was also plenty of parking for my rental vehicle. It was very quiet, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Would absolutely stay here again!
Jennifer, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Old and outdated motel. Bathroom sink still had toothpaste from previous guest as well as shaving hairs on the sink. Bed linens were old and worn. Questionable if they were fresh. I would not recommend. One star is generous.
JUDY, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The Internet was broken and the breakfast is a joke.
CARLOS MANUEL, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

It was adequate for the price. The heating controls were outdated, and had a noisy fan that ran continuously. Which also provided a white noise, blocking out most of the adjacent traffic noise. (not much traffic, this is Sitka!)

2/10 Poor

We had to get own towels, sheets and other! No service and told we could buy breakfast down the street at the store. Did not have right type of room for 3 people and wanted to charge extra for roll away bed when we had request a room for 3 adults

It's great if you need cheap lodging!

I'd chalk up my experience as a good example of you get what you pay for. Staff were friendly and willing to help us with whatever oddball questions I had about their policies and the shuttle service! As far as the room goes, well, you get a room. Rooms are heated/cooled using an A/C unit on the wall by the window, which made for a rather cold arrival until turned on. Room was clean aside from an odd smell that I never really found the source of along with a hair-clogged shower drain, which I didn't bother calling for maintenance and dealt with it then and there. The bedframe was rather long for the mattress that was there, and I had snagged my ankle on it more than a couple times. I just put my pack right beside it and that solved the issue for me. I wouldn't call it the best hotel experience I've ever had, though on the other hand I was strapped for cash as far as lodging funds went. As far as what I was paying for a night here, I feel that it was a pretty alright experience. All I was looking for was a place to drop my gear and a roof over my head, and it delivered!

6/10 Good

Baranof Lodge is centrally located and convenient for walking anywhere in downtown Sitka. The bed was very comfortable. The room was clean and had been updated. The heat unit, however, had only one temperature, hot. No matter how you turn the knob to low heat, or even cool, the temp remained hot. This was great for warming the room up when it was cold. But it was not great during the night when the unit made it too hot to sleep, and then, if you turn it off, the room became too cold. I notified the front desk person, and they said they would have it fixed. No doubt that happened after I left. I was pleased that there were ample towels and washcloths. The internet worked well. It was a fine stay other than the heat unit.

Worked for a day to tour Sitka.

This is an older property that is showing the wear. The beds were ok but not great. The bathroom was fine. The carpet in the room felt damp and the room had a dankness to it. The shuttle to the airport was reliable and convenient.
