Fodor's Expert Review Copper Whale Inn
440 L St., Anchorage, Alaska, 99501, USA
This location offers the best of both worlds: it's walkable to everything worth seeing in Downtown, but it's on the quiet end of 5th Avenue, right next to a small park and the 11-mile Coastal Trail. The small inn was built as a private residence in 1939, and the unobstructed view across Cook Inlet to Sleeping Lady (Mt. Susitna) is a bonus. The rooms offer a simple yet elegant ambience and feature original art. A hearty Continental breakfast is served in the comfortable living room, and a dozen good restaurants, including several of Alaska's finest, are within a 10-minute walk.
