This was a wonderful hotel. All the staff were so kind and to eat in the Crows nest was wonderful. It has a very nice decor and if you forgot something, they are more than happy to provide a replacement!

I stayed the night for a conference, even though I live in the area. The staff was friendly and helpful, although the cleaning staff didn't speak much english. The room was nice, and very clean. Great view in a corner room. The room layout was a little odd. You couldn't see the tv from the bed, and the chair and table were across the room. The hallways were a little dark. The room s... [more]ervice was wonderful, as was the restaurant downstairs. Lots to see in the hotel, and a great location downtown. [less]

THis hotel really stands out among the others in anchorage. It has a spirit that you cant find in other hotelss. The other els in alaska are all the same as anywhere else in the U.S. but the captian cook is special. All the workers are extremely freindly and helpful. On the way out for dinner one nihgt i asked the concierege for a refridgorator. She said no problem and when i got back to hours lat... [more]er i had a mini-fridge in my room plugged in. they have awesome gym/fitness center. the place takes up an entire block. there are three individual towers,the bottom floor connects them all together as does the basement. the basement is where they have seperate mens and womens fitness centers, a pool,spa sauna, raquetball courts etc. they have 4 restauraunts, fletchers, whales tail, the pantry, and the captians deck which on the 20 floor and gives an exptional view of the city cook inlet and on a clear day a view of mount mckinley. It has one of the best locations of all hotels. it is on 4th and 5 street which is where all of the tourist shops are. overall i have no complaints about the captian cook except that they do not have airconditioning in the room so if you are on the west side of the building it can get a little hot. overall i have spent about 3 weeks there on different trips in the winter and summer. in the summer you'll get alot of cruise boats coming in which causes some congestion in the lobby for a couple hours but in the winter you own the place. they have a business center with all stuff you could need. they have confernce rooms avialable for any need. from a small meeting or a large wedding.
