This was my second stay at TOWH. It is new, clean, modern and very comfortable! The staff are very friendly and accommodating. I love the theme of the hotel.

AWESOME! NEW! FRIENDLY!

I was sent to Barrow for work but it felt like vacation, thanks to Top of the World Hotel. The accommodations were clean and spacious, I had a nice view of the ocean, and hotel staff were really, really nice - they made me feel a bit like family :)

HAPPY IN BARROW

Given that this is at the top of the world and in the middle of nowhere I didn't have high expectations but how wrong I was. The staff was helpful and courteous, the room and hotel was modern and had all amenities you would expect to see at any hotel in the world. Last, but not least the restaurant was fantastic. Some of the best food I've had on my trip to AK. I am a vegetarian and they were helpful and were able to meet my dietary needs. Wish all of my experiences with hotels was as good.

GREAT PLACE
