As a travel agent: The Westmark has the best location in downtown Anchorage. Diagonal from it is the souvenir shops and restaurants. Although it does hold a restaurant which gets busy and a small coffee area-which is so crowded in the morning.
It is close to the bus stop which can take you back to the airport. Just 1 block from the start of the Idiatrod race. Which is great since you can view the snow making, the dogs getting ready. Soundproof windows block the noise below so you are guaranteed a good night's sleep.
Free internet,connecting rooms avl, restaurant, coffee shop in the hotel too.

Great staff always willing to serve, help and recommend places and things to do.
Nice lobby with a fireplace to meet and greet friends.
Good prices even in busy season, big parking lot.
