Stayed here two nights on business. Probably the best place in town (that's open year round) but there's not a lot of options so that doesn't say much. As other reviews said, it did feel like "staying and grandma's" although I have to admit it feels a bit cleaner than my grandma's house, which is definitely a plus. The beds... More

This lodge is a slightly funky collection of numerous older buildings, and shows it's age. The bed was a bit saggy and the shower worked unlike any I've ever seen. However, the friendly, hard-working owner Chris makes up for everything in spades. He gave us a free shuttle from the ferry, let us use a kitchen room to cook our... More

What a good stay we had at Sgt. Prestons. It was located right near everything. The office people were friendly and helpful.. The room was extra clean. The hot coffee and tea in the office was extra good tasting since the weather was cool and rainy. It is the place to stay while visiting the city of Skagway. They even... More

I had a great experience with this lodge while staying two nights in Skagway, AK. From the modest prices and pictures, I didn't expect a whole lot, but don't let those fool you. The room I stayed in was new construction and all of the decor was fairly new as well. The room was very clean and quiet. The location... More
