Gilmore Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

Father / Daughter Trip of a Lifetime to Ketchikan, Alaska My 13yo daughter and I planned a trip to Ketchikan, AK that included 5 nights at a wilderness cabin on a lake in the Misty Fjords National Monument in the Tongas National Forest with two nights on the front end and two nights on the back end at the Gilmore Hotel in Ketchikan. From when we first started planning our trip and booking our rooms from North Carolina to the time we left the hotel to catch our afternoon flight home, our experience with the Gilmore Hotel management and staff was nothing less than superb! Anthe, the manager, is the most professional, courteous, kind, accommodating and genuinely caring lady I have ever met or had the pleasure of doing business with. And it was crystal clear that she takes care to hire, train and surround herself with people of the same character. Everyone there made us feel very comfortable, safe and welcomed. I am certain that our stay at the Gilmore and how well we were treated was the reason my daughter told me that when she’s old enough, she wants to come back to Ketchikan and live / work there because everyone was so nice! The property and rooms were super well kept, clean and cozy and safe with a charming atmosphere. All making me want to come back. But above all were the people, Anthe, John, Caleb, Tanya and everyone else….. and yes, you too, sweet Lola, that made for an exceptional stay. You will not find nicer people anywhere and it is not hyperbole when I say that world would be a so much better place if there were more people like Anthe and her staff in it. Thank you all so very much for contributing to and being such a special part of our trip of a lifetime! With the utmost sincerity and gratitude, Eric and daughter Emilia Morehead City, North Carolina

Historic hotel We spent 2 nights in Ketchikan at this historic hotel. Features were in keeping with the hotel. There is a free taxi service you can get to and from the hotel. We used it on the way back to the airport at the end of our stay but we decided to take advantage of the nice weather and walk from the airport to the hotel with our hand luggage. It took just under an hour and our 7yo and 9yo daughters loved it. Hotel room was spacious but the bathroom was on the small side. The door lock didn't work on our door and we told reception. The hotel is in such a great central location

Beautiful Retreat Beautiful historic hotel right in the heart of the Ketchikan downtown district. Comfortable and beautifully appointed. We were right in the middle of the action- watched the cruise ships come in in the mornings and enjoyed the ocean view in the evenings. Great staff! We loved our stay there!

Alaska vacation The Gilmore is an old hotel with character. The rooms have been remodeled and are clean and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was clean and functional. Be prepared for some noise because the location is near the cruise ships. We slept with the windows open and the fan on which kept the room comfortable, the weather was in the 60s during the day and 50s at night, if the weather is warmer the room might be too toasty. Transportation from the Alaskan Ferry and to the airport was covered by the hotel (not ferry to airport). The folks at the front desk were very friendly and helpful.

Location was excellent Free airport taxi. Centralized location with free bus pickup close to hotel. Didnt miss a vvehicle. I would stay again.
