Overview

True to its name, The Lakefront Anchorage fronts Lake Spenard and is right next to Lake Hood, the largest and busiest seaplane base in the world. For those hoping to get out on the water for flightseeing and fishing, this is the spot. There’s plenty to see and do from Anchorage’s only lakeside hotel, as you watch the seaplanes come in and out all day. From this excellent location, it’s easy to attend a local festival, explore Kincaid or Earthquake Park, take a hike on the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail or visit the Aviation Museum. Downtown Anchorage is just 4 miles down the road. With the majestic Chugach Mountains as a stunning backdrop and an easy-going elegance inside, the lodge-style hotel is a perfect blend of modern comfort and a frontier vibe.
