Beautiful Hotel, Great Location

The staff accommodated my early check in without missing a beat, and they were very responsive to any questions I had during my stay. While there wasn't a lot of extra space, the room was fairly well appointed with a couple of sitting chairs and a very comfortable queen-sized bed. I had one of the rooms without an exterior-facing window, but that wasn't at all bothersome to me. Housekeeping came around in the evening to offer ice and turn-down service, which I appreciated, but declined. I also didn't take advantage of the complimentary hot continental breakfast, evening wine and cheese reception, or evening sherry nightcaps, but it was great that they were offered. The only things I would have changed were (1) free wireless Internet access (only available via cabled connection) and (2) in-room coffee maker.

Dining tip: Short walk from hotel

The Anchorage Inn is two doors down from The Griffon, a wonderful English Pub with a very nice list of beers on tap. The food is also very good, and the staff as friendly and fun as can be. If that's not your scene, there are myriad dining options a scant block away.
