About this property

Welcome to The Ketch Inn & Marina - rebranded from Edgewater Inn

The Ketch Inn & Marina, a recently rebranded establishment from the Edgewater Inn, emerges as a captivating destination located at 4871 N Tongass Hwy, Ketchikan, AK. With a commendable rating of 4.1, this hotel offers guests a blend of comfort and scenic beauty that is hard to resist.

Guests have shared their experiences, with Ron Sloan praising the hotel for his memorable stay, highlighting the joy of waking up to stunning views from his balcony. The shifting panorama of cruise ships rolling in and out of the harbor added a unique charm to his visit—one that is sure to enchant future visitors.

While most reviews are positive, Irena Tipikin's experience reflects some challenges in room allocation upon check-in. Despite booking a King room, she found herself in a two-double bed room. However, the convenience of the balcony, facing the docks where her fishing charter began and ended, somewhat alleviated the disappointment. Cleanliness and adequate hot water were noted as positives, though she experienced issues with water pressure. These testimonials illustrate that while The Ketch Inn & Marina excels in ambiance, consistency in room availability could enhance the guest experience further.

The hotel amenities are designed with the traveler in mind. Offering free Wi-Fi, paid breakfast, free parking, and accessibility options, the Ketch Inn caters to various needs. While it lacks a pool or fitness center, it compensates with a cozy bar and a restaurant where guests can unwind after a day of exploring.

Located near iconic attractions such as the Totem Bight State Historical Park and the charming Creek Street, the Ketch Inn & Marina serves as a perfect launchpad for those eager to delve into Ketchikan's rich culture and natural beauty. The Totem Heritage Center is also a must-visit for art lovers and history enthusiasts.

In conclusion, The Ketch Inn & Marina stands as a delightful refuge for visitors to Ketchikan. With breathtaking views, an array of local activities, and a welcoming atmosphere, it promises a comfortable stay. Although certain areas like room assignments can see improvement, the overall essence of the hotel comes through in its inviting ambiance and scenic allure, making it a destination worth staying at.

Great experience over all. I loved waking up to the view out our sliding door the our small balcony. We were able to watch the cruise ships come and go. Overall a very pleasant stay.

We booked a King room. Were told @ check in, that all they had was a 2 x double bed room... disappointing when you specifically book something... only perk was that it was an end unit... the balcony view was of their docks, which worked great for us since our fishing charter guy picked us up & dropped us off right there... Rooms were clean. Shower water was decently hot... shitty water pressure tho. Location was decent. Close to Walmart, about a 5 min drive to town center. Dunno if I would stay here again... feel like there were better options for same price...
