The place is older but well taken care of. The breakfast was the most I was impressed of. Real eggs, potatoes, and sausage. Biscuit and gravy with fresh coffee all day. Be sure to bring ear plugs it helps not only in this hotel but others alike. It will help you sleep better because Valdez doesn't. (annyeonghaseyo) is Hi in korean (gamsahabnida) is thank you

Hotel location is good, very convenient to go to everywhere, no matter dining or supermarket or the harbor. The room is well equipped, and the hotel lobby provides lemon water, hot water and coffee, which made us feel the hotel is warm and convenient and welcoming. The breakfast chef made good waffles. Very comfortable stay.

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
