What people say about us
We stayed at the Copper Whale Inn in August, 2026. We stayed three nights before heading on the train to Denali. Lorene, the manager, was extremely welcoming and helpful. The room was clean and well-appointed. The complimentary continental breakfast was incredible. The quality and variety of foods offered at breakfast were top-notch. The location is great for walking to much of downtown Anchorage. It is a very welcoming environment to ALL. If you want to stay in this charming inn, book early.
— JulieWe rarely see the kind of personalized attention that Copper Whale Inn provides. Special thanks to Lorene!! Not only was my room great, but the staff made me feel 100% welcomed like an old friend would. The location is amazing, with great views and walkable to anything downtown. Can't wait to come back! Thanks Copper Whale!

Rich in history, as unique as Alaska
Copper Whale Inn’s historic main house was the first architecturally designed home in Anchorage. Constructed in 1939, it was owned by a local doctor and today provides a small oasis within a neighborhood of office towers.
