Conveniently situated, just a short drive from the Ted Stevens International Airport, Lakeshore Inn & Suites is a family owned and run property, offering comfortable accommodation and a lovely garden that really blooms in the short summer months. The 44 rooms are simply, but comfortably, furnished and decorated. They feature all you’ll need for a good stay, including coffee maker, minibar and cable TV. The comfortable lobby lounge has one of the biggest trophy fish collections in Alaska and is a great spot to relax or socialise. The reception is open 24/7 and a free airport shuttle is available for guests. Simple pastries and hot drinks are available every morning, but there’s a decent number of fast food places and restaurants nearby, including McDonalds. Lakeshore Inn & Suites is barely a mile from the Ted Stevens International Airport, while those heading into downtown Anchorage will find it just 3.5 miles to the north.

Going by the reviews, it seems that many guests staying here were on airport layovers. To this end they found the location fantastic, saying that the hotel was no more than a couple of minutes drive from the terminal. Those who did not have their own car mentioned that there was a shuttle available and it seemed to work just fine.
One of the first things guests mentioned in their reviews was that they thought very highly of the hotel's staff. They were described as incredibly friendly with guests often mentioning specific staff members by name, saying they went far beyond the call of duty to assist them during their stay.
Guests liked that Lake Spenard was very nearby and had a walkway around it that made for an interesting stroll.
Guests were really not impressed for what passed as breakfast at the hotel. They mentioned that it consisted of pretty much a hot drink and a pastry or two, and was not what they were looking for to get their day off to a good start.
A number of non-smoking guests who had booked non-smoking rooms were unhappy that they could smell smoke in their room. Some felt that it was as a result of smoke drifting on from the outside, while others were convinced that the room had recently been occupied by a smoker.
Guests did seem to experience a bit of noise during their stay. They said that they could often hear the seaplanes taking off and landing nearby, though this was typically only during the day. Some also said the sound of traffic passing nearby disturbed them at night.
