Base Camp Anchorage Hostel

About this stay

Base Camp Anchorage Hostel positions itself as Anchorage's low-cost, communal alternative to the city's business hotels, and the shared kitchen and sauna are the clearest signs of that. Guests here tend to cook rather than eat out every night, and the sauna gets steady use after a day exploring, whether that's the Anchorage Museum, seven minutes away by taxi, or the restaurant strip along Spenard and 26th Avenue, three minutes on foot. The nine-minute public transport ride to the airport works well for budget-conscious travelers skipping a rental car entirely, and free Wi-Fi and parking keep costs predictable across a longer stay. Jackie's Place Restaurant sits five minutes away for anyone not cooking that night, and the backyard adds outdoor space rare among Anchorage's budget-tier properties, useful on a rare clear summer evening.
