Rooms are basic, but clean. Breakfast free and I thought excellent value in comparison to most other places in Alaska (where there is no breakfast included). Staff are helpful, (unlike other places where no one meets / greets you), reception is warm and all our needs were met. It was also a third the price of anywwhere else we stayed.... more

The room was what you would expect from a Holiday Inn Express, nothing special and if you don't stay on the top floor you hear every step from the room upstairs. The breakfast, although free, was not good at all. If you want a great breakfast just go next door to the train car restaurant the Smoke Shack, it only... more

We were very pleased with our stay at the HI Express, clean and quiet - just what we were looking for. It is located right at the harbor, the breakfast room looks out to the bay. It is a great bargain in Seward. more

We arrived at this property after a long drive from Homer and were told that our reservation had been cancelled. It only took the manager three or four minutes to arrange that and it was the only minor flaw we find in the hotel. It has a great location near the harbor, very convenient for restaurants and very close to... more

I am not sure how Holiday Inn Express got this property, but they were very fortunate. We got a room on the harbor side with the balcony and it was very nice. The room was comfortable, clean and service was good. Free internet and breakfast also. Pretty much the only negative is the lack of parking. My wife and I... more

This hotel is a nothing-special-chain hotel except for the view. If you request a room with a harbor view you won't be disappointed! From your balcony, the view is harbor and mountains. The location is perfect, too, within walking distacnce of everything on the strip. The continental breakfast is what you would expect, certainly adequate. The room itself was also... more

The 2 night we stayed at the HIE were some of the worst sleeps I had on our Alaska trip. Someone else booked our rooms and they didn't know about my "top floor only" rule. We had a nice room on the second floor but I could hear every thump of whomever was walking above us. The first night it... more

this is an excellant location especially if you are taking the train down or are taking one of the bay cruises. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Staff helpful. Walking distance to many restaurants. The other big resort, I think it's called the Seward Princess Lodge looks nice but it is outside of town. computer with internet access available. more

This was a very nice new clean hotel with beautiful harbor views and a great location. We ended up here by an act of God....flash floods, road wash outs and closures and no way to get to our reserved lodging. The staff at the Holiday Inn found great rooms for us and even gave us a discount price. I would... more
