I stayed at the Hotel Seward expecting that a $500-a-night rate - steep, though not exorbitant for…read morethe area - would come with the basics. It didn't. If you're considering the Hotel Seward, go in knowing you'll be paying a premium rate for a highly stripped-down experience. I'd look elsewhere. The single most surprising thing: they provide no housekeeping services whatsoever. No daily tidy, no fresh towels, nothing. Even budget hotels offer housekeeping, so to find it entirely absent at this price point was completely baffling. My "renovated" room was on the ground floor with what the listing might generously call a view - of the parking lot. People walked past my window and cars pulled in and out just feet from my door, so privacy and quiet were in short supply. Moreover, the room relied on 80's baseboard heating. For the money, I expected far more comfort and far more service than I got. Lastly, zero breakfast of any kind included. Nothing. I stayed at the Hotel 360 on the harbor for the same price and it was GORGEOUS, with all the amenities (great breakfast, housekeeping, super friendly staff, an unbelievable view, actually renovated rooms, etc.). Stay far away from Hotel Seward.

Bartender was friendly and took out order very quickly. We had the salmon sandwich and the macaroni burger. The salmon sandwich was good but they were very stingy with the salmon wasn't even enough to cover bread but tasted good. The macaroni burger on the other hand was huge i could barely finish it. The fries it came with were really good crunchy and well seasoned!

We came for breakfast on Sunday. There was no wait for a six top between 9 and 10 am. Everyone…read morehad pancakes but me, who chose the scramble. It was good but not spectacular. I was full before eating it all. There was a built in tip for party of six so they did not get more than 20%. I have never been a fan of forced tips but unfortunately all of society pays for bad tipping. If I were to be in Seward again, I would probably find something else.

Stopped by for dinner on 7/17 place is pretty cool looking. Had to wait 15mins to be seated it was…read morebusy. Place had plenty of seating and was pretty clean. The servers were really nice and excellent at their jobs! But the best part was the food wow! The seafood chowder was amazing had big chunks of sockeye salmon. The gulf captains platter was very delicious soo fresh had broiled salmon which was juicy and very delicious, Halibut chunks that were fried like fish and chips were cooked crispy and the fish was still juicy. And fried prawns that were crispy and juicy inside bery tasty it came with 2 home made sauces a cocktail sauce that tastes like fresh horseradish was used in it and a standard tarter sauce. It came with two sides we tried baked potato loaded with cheese and bacon and rice with butter both were cooked fo perfection. The cornbread was ok compared to rest of food. Last but not least was this massive chocolate cake it was amazing wish it came with milk, but was so big we took home half! If I'm back in Seward i will definitely come back!

What a hidden gem!!! I cannot understand why this place isn't 5 stars! Everything was outstanding!…read moreThe food was the best we have had this trip in all of Anchorage, Girdwood, and Seward! We had the Alaskan king salmon and market price was reasonable! We also had the crab cakes and the gulf captains platter and they were so good! The ambiance is great and this place has so much mountain town character! Our server Ashley was attentive and friendly and she even gave great recommendations on some local hiking spots. It was pretty busy but the wait was hardly anything. Everything was literally perfect! Highly recommend this spot!!!

Great atmosphere, great on-tap cider & beer selection. Views were spectacular. The Bartender…read moreprovided excellent service. His beer & cider recommendations were spot on. He did a glass of 50/50 Matanuska Brewing Co. Backwater Blue and Broken Tooth Brewing Raspberry Wheat that was delicious . The Crab Cakes were delicious, Classic Crab Cakes with large chunks of Alaskan crab with Dijon aioli. The Bartender recommended the Alaskan Halibut Baked in Lobster Bisque.

Beautiful location right on the marina with gorgeous views and a great atmosphere. The service was…read moregood, and I didn't complain because the food was flavorful and I ate it. That said, I was really disappointed that both the appetizer and entrée labeled "Alaskan crab cakes" were made with surimi (imitation crab), not real Alaskan crab. As a visitor from out of town, I assumed "Alaskan crab cakes" meant actual Alaskan crab. The texture was very doughy, and once I pulled it apart it was obvious it wasn't real crab. I'm leaving this review so other visitors know to ask before ordering. I wish I had. I noticed a lot of locals ordering the fish and chips, and in hindsight that's probably the better choice.

The yurts are wonderful and roomy, the beds are comfy, they keep everything tidy, and they provide so many perks! Let me expand, they have an incredible staff, people who truly love what they are doing and their enthusiasm is infectious! Every night we were there a warm fire greeted us with snapping and popping welcoming us back from our Seward explorations! The kitchen and cooking area is always clean and welcoming. You must cook your own food, there are flattops, BBQ grills, or even a stick by the campfire. I was familiar with s'mores which they provide ingredients for but I was introduced to stick bread, its life changing! There are so many options to use you can make gourmet meals or something simple, they make it easy no matter what your cooking abilities will allow! Morning coffee and tea are waiting hot and fresh, they also provide pancake/waffle mix for you to add to your planned meal. They have a supply of chocolate chips for a sweet twist but if you want with Alaskan style, and if you're lucky enough to be staying during blueberry season the property is abundant with high bush blueberries! Send someone out on a blueberry walk and add them to your fresh waffles or pancakes. Alaskan summer brings out the midnight sun, literally, but for extra light the paths to all of the yurts are well lit which make late night snack time or early morning coffee pleasant. The yurts do not have bathrooms inside them, you must venture out to the shared facilities. If you want an adventure that is unique, fun, and will be a memorable part of your Alaska experience, the Nauti Otter is the best!

I tried the burger - great fries, and the burger was solid but perhaps a bit overcooked. My wife had the vegan dish - the cauliflower had good flavor but the dish might have been a bit better with some added protein - perhaps chickpeas? Ambiance was nice - seemed like locals and tourists alike came to the brewery which was fun.

GF options were limited, but the sandwich & service were fabulous!…read more I'm a GF gal with a number of complex allergies. I used to be a cook, so I empathize with kitchens when trying to meet customer needs and I have become my own nightmare. Their menu has some twists on common coastal brewhouse food, and I could only safely eat one item on the menu. Despite a crazy dinner rush, our server was courteous and helpful to get me a safe meal (gf Smoked Moke Sando with a salad) - so this is for them & the cooks: THANK YOU! My Sandwich was so flavorful/seasoned/savory/fatty that I wept at the table lol. My boyfriend had an IPA and a Dad's pizza (needs a little more salt) and was very content. Service was fast despite the busy hour. Thanks y'all!

I'd come back right here for lunch the next time I'm in Seward. The burger was well smashed, well seasoned, and well cooked. It had those little crispy cheese folds on the edges I love. Excuse the picture, we got a double and pulled one patty off to feed our 1.5 year old. It wasn't until the remaining half was pretty much gone I decided to write this review. It was pretty close to the picture the business has on its page, a full size smash burger! Both kids loved the food and Mom and Dad loved the bites they shared. Would recommend this place!

Additionally there were actually several restaurants and convenience stores in the area which was a change from the remote RV parks we had stayed at previously. The staff inside the store were EXTREMELY friendly. I have seen some negative posts about religion which I do not understand. Not once did I encounter anyone trying to push religion down my throat, nor did I notice an inappropriate amount of bibles laying around. Also, who cares? You don't have to read the bible in the bathroom just because it's there. I would highly recommend staying at Grizzly Ridge! Also there is a beautiful brand new metal deck area with steps leading down to it right on the river. I'm attaching pictures. Must see! Plus: water, sewage, and electric hook ups!
