About Coast Inn at Lake Hood

Coast Inn at Lake Hood, is a short walk away to watch float planes take on and off from one of the busiest seaplane bases in the world. In the winter the frozen lake serves as a frozen runway for planes with skis. Befitting to its location the hotel is decorated in Alaska Bush Pilot memorabilia and historic photography that the Alaska Aviation Museum next door shares with them. Each guest room is carefully cared for by our veteran housekeeping team, most of which have been with us 5 years and some up to 20 years. Each room has everything you need like Keurig Coffee machines with locally owned Caffé D'arte Alaska coffee, to in-room microwave and mini-refrigerator. If you have forgotten something, our front desk probably has it. We keep a fresh supply of basic toiletries available for you. Dine-in at locally owned and operated for 30 plus years, Pipers Restaurant and Lounge, or order room service. We have monthly specials that coincide with the season, Alaskan local favorites, and traditional native food. In the summer the deck is open and overlooks Lake Hood, where you can watch the planes land and take off right in front of you. The hotel has everything you need; from the fitness center, laundry machines, complimentary wi-fi, over 6,000 square feet of meeting space, computer stations for printing boarding passes, and the most needed on-demand courtesy airport shuttle available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, no reservation required. If you need to park and fly out, our partner Alaska Park is next door ready to serve you, and is who handles our courtesy shuttle.

    Una excelente opción en Anchorage, cerca de aeropuerto, del lago y restaurantes. El personal no fue tan cordial, pero resuelven.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The room we were given smelled like smoke and they did not have another one available as it is a place close to the airport. Everything was okay except for the smell.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Coast Inn was a great choice for us. Next time we fly in to Anchorage, we will definitely stay here again. The shuttle was very easy, it's the airport shuttle to the airport parking lot. The Inn is adjacent to the parking lot and the shuttle makes a stop right in front of the Inn. The restaurant is very good, we had both breakfast and dinner there. Staff is friendly and courteous. We enjoyed walking around the seaplane airport which was directly across the street.

    The hotel and room were tired but clean. The bed was comfortable.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Very old property. Dated. Room smelled like cigarette smoke. Air conditioner rattled. The highlight was free shuttle from the airport and to our charter plane terminal the next day.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Since we had an early flight, location was very close to airport The receptionist was below rude. Only one of them who I did not catch the name. Definitely not worth the money spent there

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Decent food and drinks.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Great restaurant

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Location to the airport and the view of Lake Hood and the free airport shuttle Dated , could be updated , not the most comfortable bed

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Be aware there are no elevators and getting on the shuttle at the airport is damn near impossible. It’s a shuttle for a park and fly lot next door and it’s vans are always full.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Won't do again
