We spent 3 nights at the Golden Lion. We were very pleased with the cleanliness of our room, the hotel desk staff, and the maid service. We were with 3 other friends and they were also very happy with their accommodations. We were traveling by motorcycle and the hotel provided us with old towels to wipe off our riding gear.... more

McPalin Pig Sandwhich on the menu to mock Presidential candidate Obama. Shamefull. I was thoroughly disgusted and left without ordering. We checked out. It was a dump. What else could you expect? more

After a wonderful cruise we checked into this place. The people at the front desk are very nice. However, the carpet in our room was absolutley filthy. We have stayed in a lot of Best Westerns and this hotel was absolutley the worst. We happened to hit Anchorage on the hottest day of the year. The A/C did not work.... more

Golden Lion is a reasonably priced hotel at Anchorage. Its a few miles from downtown so you definitely will need a car for transportation. Other than that, the rooms are large, has a frige and microwave, as well good amenities (restaurant and bar on site). If I am in the area again, I would stay here. more

A nice feeling, after traveling many air miles to get to Anchorage. The room was very... more

This was a barely adequate, tired hotel. Location was convenient, and that is the only positive I can give to it. The first clue was the parking lot which had cracks and tall weeds – giving the outside an aura of desertion. Bur, we had already guaranteed our room so we were stuck. This was especially galling since there were... more

I'm nearing the end of my 6-night stay for work. My expectations were tempered by the fact that this is a budget hotel. The hotel was easy to find with plenty of parking. The hotel and my room were in decent shape, not great nor shabby. The furnishings in the room were not exactly modern but everything worked and the... more
