I stayed at Exit Glacier Lodge with my family of 5. The property was quiet, and easy to access. My kids loved the loft with single beds. There was plenty of space for us there.

The lodge has cabins that have a little area to sit outside, really cute and the lodge is really close to Exit Glacier. I would recommend it and stay there again.

Nice Room
Very nice older property with large, high-ceiling rooms. For breakfast, go next door to Resurrection Roadhouse for excellent breakfast with a view.

Basic but fine
Our cabin was a pretty basic plywood affair kind of tucked in a brushy spot but perfectly acceptable. Saw a moose in the parking lot!

Glacier Exit Inn Rocks!!!!
Great one night stay at the Exit Glacier Inn. This family run hotel is a couple miles from the Main Street In Steward. Nice spacious rooms with refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker. The “Salmon Bake” restaurant is right next door. The food, bar, and interior of this restaurant is spectacular. I will definitely stay here again when I am in Steward.

This is what you would consider a classic Alaskan lodge. No frills, just necessities. We only stayed one night as we were heading to a train ride to catch a cruise the next day. The cabin we stayed in was small, but clean with comfortable beds. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Bed up against wall so hard to get in and out. No place to sit luggage and accessories other than on the floor. And no accommodations for seniors or handicapped as there are no grab bars in the bathroom or the shower. It wouldn’t take much to rectify these limitations and would have made our stay a lot more comfortable.

My two adult sons and I spend the first night of our first trip to Alasak with Madison, Todd, and Samuel at the Exit Glacier Lodge. The property was clean, comfortable, and attractive and the owners were excellent hosts. They also recommended us to the Salmon Bake restaurant next door to the Lodge for dinner and Le Barn Appetit just up the road for some of the best crepes you'll ever experiend. We highly recommend them.

The staff were very friendly. Disappointed with condition of the cabins. It was clean but furnishings were not very nice. Ate at the on site restaurant and the lettuce in our salads was brown. Did not eat it. Suggest looking elsewhere to stay and dine.

Worth It
The location and cleanliness are spot on. It's disappointing that they don't have breakfast, but they did provide complimentary coffee and hot water. As someone who struggles with pain, the mattresses were decently comfortable. I recommend this place for comfort, friendliness, and location. It's not right in the middle of it all, but it's in a quiet, easy-to-access location. Suggestions for staff -- offer a restaurant discount for guests, provide breakfast options (even if it isn't much), and keep tissues in the bedrooms.

Walking through the main door, we were warmly greeted by name. The friendly owners and the ambiance was as if we were visiting our most favorite extended family members that we’ve not seen in a long time. Our room was very clean, had a pull down darkening shade (for those that struggle with the 24-hour daylight), small refrigerator, coffee maker, TV, basic toiletries, heater, fan, and extra bedding. We chose this location because it is quiet and removed from downtown Seward (which is just a few minutes drive away). Next door is a small restaurant which offers delicious Alaskan seafood (when they don’t close for the day due to lack of staff) and on the other side is a business that offers kayak experiences and a few other things. From this location, you have magnificent views of the mountain. If you want to see the ocean, possible marine life, and save hundreds of dollars, stay at this lodge, and then drive to and park in downtown Seward.
