Long
a favorite of tourists and Alaskans,the
Van Gilder Hotel was built in 1916 and placed on the National
Register of Historical Places in 1980. It is located in downtown
Seward within easy walking distance to restaurants and shopping
and only two blocks away from the Alaska Sealife Center and the
Seward Museum.
You
will find The Van Gilder a quiet, impeccably clean and comfortable
inn. Brass beds and period antiques allow guests to enjoy the
authentic Victorian charm of an early century hotel. Our Alaskana
collection of books and historic photo histories completes the
"step back in time". For your comfort we also feature
modern amenities such as in-room phones, private baths and cable
TV. This
is a non-smoking hotel.
For
assistance with your vacation planning and booking activities

Desk at our sister hotel in Homer, Alaska.
