Travel Information

Anchorage is served by Ted Stevens International Airport.

The hotel is approximately 1.5 miles from the airport. The hotel offers a free airport transportation/shuttle 24 h a day.

If you are traveling with someone, Alaska Airlines branded credit cards offer companion fare deals (second ticket for just taxes and fees).
