    modern decor
    helpful staff
    excellent breakfast
    thin walls

    The Gateway in Seward impressed with its modern design and fine views. The breakfast spread was a highlight each morning, especially the vegan sausage option. Staff were helpful, arranged a last-minute taxi for our changing plans and taking care of our luggage transfer for the cruise. The room decor was clean and contemporary. The walls were quite thin, leading to some disturbances from neighboring rooms. For the price point, I expected a bit more soundproofing. This place is worth considering, especially for its location and service even if some noise was an issue.

    floor noise
    thin walls

    The staff were helpful with luggage arrangements.

    Our room had significant noise issues from the floor above. The thin walls, as we could hear everything happening next door. I also found the bedding to be subpar for the price we paid. A bit more comfort would have been appreciated.

    ample breakfast
    thin walls

    Gateway is a pristine, modern hotel with a fantastic location! The super nice team, especially when they arranged a taxi for our last-minute change of plans. The breakfast spread was ample, and the views were fine as we took our morning bites. Plus, the free wildlife cruise bags transfer service was a great bonus for cruise goers.

    Thin walls.

    friendly staff
    seamless transfer
    transportation options
    limited amenities

    One simple answer, yes or no?

    Experience seamless luggage transfer to your cruise and a tasteful, quiet room with friendly staff. The free washer and dryer were invaluable .

    Limited transportation options and absence of bathtub could be disappointing for families needing more amenities.

    The breakfast options were diverse and satisfying, perfect to fuel our adventures for the day.

    For dads, it would be great if the room had a tub.

    delicious breakfast
    comfortable room
    lack of cafe

    We had an amazing two-night stay! The breakfast was delicious and varied, especially enjoyed the pancakes. The room was super comfy and exactly as pictured.. One downside was the lack of a nearby cafe, but everything else was perfect! I'd definitely come back again.

    amazing views
    wildlife cruise

    The waterfront walking path offered amazing views of Resurrection Bay. We even spotted some sea otters! Breakfast was solid, and the staff were super accommodating. Plan a wildlife cruise to get close to glaciers and whales. There's plenty to do for all types of adventurers.
