Ketchikan
This is Ketchikan’s splashiest lodging. Perched atop the hill behind Creek St, it offers the best views in town and can be reached by a high-tech funicular tram from the Creek St boardwalk. The opulent lodge has 72 amenity-filled rooms and suites and the acclaimed Heen Kahidi restaurant overlooking the city.
There is so much Alaska Native art in the lobby it’s like walking through a gallery. Also on-site is a coffee shop and gift store, and staff can arrange tours.
