Baranof Downtown, BW Signature Collection
"First off, I love traveling to Alaska. The location of this hotel was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere. The only issue we had, no hot water, talk about a disaster. We got refunded for 2 of our 4 night stay. Because location was ideal, I would book again."

"A rustic, old-time feel but very comfortable. The staff was very helpful. If you have a car, be sure to ask where to park. I will stay here again next time I'm in Juneau."

Waterfront on Glacier
"The place is been renovated and a work in progress. Room was excellent but no ice machines or ice trays yet. We’re told that would be fixed. The view comes with road noise but worth it. Would stay again once renovations are completed."
