What guests think

At Wingate by Wyndham Anchorage Downtown - Ship Creek, travellers praise the handy setting by Ship Creek and railroad plus friendly staff and shuttle help, but many note dated facilities, train noise, and inconsistent cleanliness and maintenance.

Rooms are often spacious but sparsely furnished with few chairs or tables and limited in-room amenities like coffee makers, with some reporting loud HVAC. Facilities feel limited, with an indoor pool that is frequently unheated or closed, a small gym with outages, and renovations disrupting common areas. Several guests flag the area and parking lot as rough, citing litter, broken vehicles, and a visible homeless presence. Expect a convenient but no-frills base, especially handy for train travel.

There was no shuttle and we were left stranded at the airport for an hour and a half. Every time we called we were hung up on. When we got to the hotel we asked to be reimbursed for our uber answer absolutely not. Needless to say we will never stay at another one of your properties and plan to let everyone we can know about our experience. A little customer service goes a long way but we didn't even get an apology. Never again!

No TV or pool for Two days. AC unit was so noisy we couldn't sleep do to lack of repair. We had to move rooms twice. Manager, R. M. was full of it and only offered reward points for the multipal problems we encountered. Clearly a lower cost equals a low rating experience.

Good location on Ship Creek. Close to the train station with free shuttle service to the train station and airport. Since it was winter, the shuttle was also more available to take us to restaurants and pickup locations for tours. During summer they are on more airport runs and a bit less available. Very handy! About the only downside was that the pancake maker in the breakfast room was out of order. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful! They made our stay great!

The hotel is tired and dated, the pool was green, and I mean green. Blew the breaker with just the tv/ac on.., the person that came to reset it apologized and said “the only thing that changes around here is the owners”. I know it’s not the hotels fault but the trains are relentless, the f’n horns go on for ever. Very handy location, but the hotel is just run down. For $300 a night I expect way more.

The check in process was slow. One of our two rooms had a clogged toilet upon arrival. When the front desk was contacted about it we were told "theres a plunger down here, come get it." Our other roomhad a very slow draining tub which caused the tub to he dirty and gross. Our keys were only validated for 1 day instead of the full stay we booked. Overall, not great customer service. The hotel is old, you can tell they have attempted to repaint, given the paint drips on the trim and painters tape left on items. The "gym" is a treadmill and weights. The elliptical was put of order. This hotel is quite close to the railroad depot so if you need tonstay somewhere close this will do.

I was surprised of the condition of the hotel based on the cost per night. It wasn’t cheap and I’ve stayed in nicer motels. The best part was the staff! I feel like they did the very best they could with what they have. This hotel is really close to the train station, however if you come in on the late train from Seward in pouring rain, they have a shuttle and the driver was amazing and positive. The shuttle is a 15 passenger van with plenty of space for a bazillion bags! There is an indoor pool but it isn’t heated if that matters to you. There is a continental breakfast but again, the staff did the best they could with what they have. You won’t starve but I’d get breakfast at the airport or somewhere downtown. They also did a great job setting up shuttles for everyone to the airport too. Safety wise, didn’t feel like the area wasn’t safe but you could see evidence that at some point some of the security latches were forcefully removed from the doors. Good for a short stay. It just could use a refresh to match the positive energy of the staff.

Do not stay at this hotel! We found hair in the tub; two lights were burned out and no one was available to change the bulbs. The ironing board cover was loose and had paint on it. There was paint on doors , and the bathroom door did not close properly. Two huge trash bags sat in the hall for two days. The air conditioner was two feet from my head where I had to sleep on the bed. I had to rig up a pillow to baffle the air flow. The elevator area was very dark and did not feel safe. I took pictures of all these things.

Being right next to the railroad station the train horns were constant and frustrating. The bed was good. Pillows too small. There was only the bed and a metal chair in the room. The chair looked like it was part of an outside patio furniture set. WHAT? No couch/loveseat/padded seat of any kind. It would have been nice to be able to sit comfortably and watch TV instead of having to lay in the bed. The fire alarm went off during my stay and it was definitely working properly. VERY loud. Which is good. The staff never explained what caused it even when asked they responded with "I don't know". The property is old it appears that some upgrades are being made so its a mix of old and new. Breakfast was terrible but I was not expecting it to be anything other than what it was. I wouldn't recommend staying here if you are only looking for a hotel with breakfast.

The location of this hotel is great (except for the train noise), but the hotel is showing its age. The door to our room wouldn't close all the way unless really you put your shoulder into it, and the air unit in the room was very loud every time it cycled on. The room didn't have soap when we arrived and we had to ask at the front desk. The room was clean but some of the common areas were not.

The location is excellent, right next to the train station, but the surrounding downtown area feels rundown and somewhat unsafe, especially after dark. While the hotel serves its purpose for a basic overnight stay, the rooms are extremely simple. The ceilings are low, and the furnishings are minimal—a single chair in the corner rather than proper seating or functional furniture. The overall décor and amenities are very basic. On the plus side, a full breakfast is included, though it’s modest in variety.

The service was done well considering the understaffing. I had been frustrated not being able to communicate with the front desk before we checked in with some questions. When we arrived I understood why. The front desk was dealing with difficult customers with kindness and clarity. The line was out the door with people trying to check in. One person was at the desk trying to manage, her demeanor was pleasant and kind. A second person came to work during the time we were in line. She was friendly as well. The employees were great. The cleanliness was great. The state of the hotel was not good. Maybe I’m spoiled by the other Wyndham hotels I’ve stayed at, but I expected a Wyndham/Wingate to be kept in good condition. This property, the room, the bathroom, all in disrepair. There was a crack in the bathtub. The curtains didn’t cover all the light in a place the sun never goes down. The paint and walls, doors, windows… looked very rough.

I had booked and paid for my hotel room and received a confirmation. Yet when I landed in Anchorage and called for the hotel shuttle, I was informed that they had overbooked and they had no rooms. They offered me a room and a sister property which involves me waiting an additional hour for the shuttle on which I finally gave up and took a cab. When I arrived at the sister hotel, the front desk was completely flustered because their hotel room key card system was down and they were unable to issue working keys. Add info to injury. The website is still showing that they have rooms available..

The hotel was quiet except for the many trains going by with horns blowing so is loud throughout the early morning and day but not at night. (Trains don't run at night) - location: good. You can walk into town but there is an incline so my older parents struggled a bit. - breakfast: a disaster! Great variety of choices IF you can get them. It was SO busy they ran out of food every morning. The breakfast space is SO small that most people had to stand around and try to eat. - recommendation: for a Wyndham hotel I expect a little more
