Erin Kirkland (verified owner) –
Super 8 in Ketchikan a great family value
Ketchikan is usually considered a port of call for cruise passengers, not a destination, and hotel bed numbers reflect this. However, due to an increase in overall tourism to Alaska, communities like Ketchikan are building up and renovating current properties. Super 8 is one of these; after a recent remodel, the property is now considered one of our favorites. Situated right on the harbor in full view of the arriving and departing Alaska Marine Highway (ferry system) vessels, airport ferry, and float planes, kids will adore waterside rooms from which to watch all this unique traffic. Family suites have been added to some corner sites, and we enjoyed spreading out with a table, couch, big-screen television, and refrigerator. Ahhh, nice after two weeks aboard a ferry. The hotel provides a continental breakfast, and it’s fine for kids, but if you want hot food, better to try a restaurant. However, if all you need is coffee, juice, cereal/muffins, and a hard boiled egg, go for it and enjoy. The property is located near a grocery store and a few small restaurants, but is a bit of a walk from the touristy downtown area. A great value sometimes comes with a price of lack of convenience, but families used to hoofing it or taking a taxi should do fine.
Tips for Families
Secure a family suite to spread out and stash some snacks and drinks using the in-room fridge. Ask for a room overlooking the water! Be prepared to either take a taxi or walk in the often rainy weather to downtown attractions. BUT, that’s why you’re here, right?
