Best Western Kodiak Inn and Convention Center

We stayed here the night before, and the night after our excursion into the wilderness of Katmai. The first night was okay. The 2nd/last night we stayed was terrible. The first room we checked in to smelled like the inside of an ash tray. Although this is a non-smoking hotel, they allow smoking along the outside corridor next to the Hot Tub. The smoke easily enters the room through the a/c and ventilation system. The front desk staff moved us without hesitation, but to the last room along that row of rooms. It too reeked of smoke. But by that time, we had already been to the airport twice and had to switch flights and other plans due to fog conditions, so we just sucked it up and stayed in that room. Thank goodness for night-time sleeping pills or I would have been unable to sleep all night. So ... not a terrible hotel. But do, at all costs, avoid the rooms along the smoking corridor. less

We stayed 4 nights and I have mixed feelings about our stay. Breakfast was poor and service non existent. Dinner was not bad at all and staff helpful. It was good to have a laundry available. Bed very soft. Issues with noise at night coming from the carpark gave me some sleepness nights. less

We lived in this Best Western for 10 days before moving from Kodiak. It was a great stay for a stressed out and exhausted military family. Our room was very spacious and provided room for a pack n play and dog kennel. It was very clean and stayed clean through out our stay. The breakfast every morning was always delicious and offered several choices. The staff, especially the cleaning crews, were always kind and accommodating. The Chart Room is the restaurant on site and has one of the better menus on the island so that was nice to have right down the hall for dinner. It is also central to "downtown" so you can walk to different restaurants, the brewery and shops. Internet was always great and never gave us trouble. The only complaint I have was the noise from the room above us. They were extremely heavy footed and dropped what seemed like very heavy objects at odd hours in the night. I would highly recommend staying here if you decide to visit Kodiak. less

Located close to restaurants, harbor, brewery and shopping. Breakfast is good. Bar and restaurant are full service. Rooms are average size, clean with frig and microwave. Some rooms require lots of stairs so if stairs are a problem be sure to let them know when you book. I stay here when I go to Kodiak. less

I recently spent a night on Kodiak Island and chose the Best Western because of brand reputation and cost. It turned out to be a wise choice. My room was spotlessly clean (although the "view" from my window was less than exciting!) and it came with all the necessary amenities. The front desk person who checked me in could have taken better notes in her "how to be friendly to guests" class, but the person checking me out was a real joy. The hotel decor is quintessential Alaska including a gigantic Kodiak brown bear in the entry way. Parking is a bit limiting but other than that this is a perfect hotel for a short visit or preferably one much longer than my single night. The Chartroom Restaurant is an excellent location for dinner. Breakfast is described as a "hot" continental breakfast. Their breakfast is a full breakfast with a nice variety from which to choose. less
