The photos didn’t reflect the fact that the hotel outside paint is falling apart big time. The bed sheets had not been changed so we had to ask for them to be immediately changed. This has been done right away but we stayed with the bad feeling. On the positive side, shower water is perfectly warm, the hotel is quiet and it is great to be downtown. Overall at that night rate we would have expected much better. ##### Laure Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Scott Jul 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great location in downtown - cool historic hotel :) ##### Scott Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jim Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Quint and historical building in an excellent location ##### Jim Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joanne Jul 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort hotel was quaint, but old - had alot of history which was very interesting ##### Joanne Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Cal Aug 2, 2024 The staff Was very gracious! ##### Cal Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jette Jul 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location This hotel is very old 108 years old but it is in very good condition and loved staying there however since it's old there is no elevator and it is 3 story high so lots of stairs ##### Jette Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Jun 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This is a quaint old hotel with a lot of history.

We needed a clean place with running water and electricity. This place worked. It's not glamorous by any stretch of the imagination but works for an overnight stay. Staff is super friendly and accommodating, there is a very nice sitting area with communal refrigerators. This property could use some renovation. With some TLC, this property could be a 5 star premium property. In its current condition, 2 stars is a stretch. Staff and reserved parking make it 3 stars. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/63A0E98AA36C040F8042AC4FDE77B7CE222CE2571719971860801.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joshua Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dennis Aug 19, 2023 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Hotel is old and rustic so elders know that there is no elevator and stairs are required. ##### Dennis ### 4/10 Poor #### Ivy Jul 9, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This property is old and needs upgrading.

They keep the rooms clean and the staff is helpful and friendly. It's an old building with lots of history. The rooms are a little small without a lot of storage or places to hang stuff. The beds are comfortable and we always get a good night's sleep. The Van Gilder is in downtown Seward and it's easy to get to restaurants and shopping or visit the Sealife Center.

However it is definitely not worth the value because the property upkeep is awful ☹️. The property management company should be ashamed of themselves for not bringing this property up to code and for not modernizing it to show off its historic features.
