I travel to Haines frequently and always try to stay at the Captains Choice. The staff is friendly and willing to help out with whatever they can. They offer free shuttle rides to and from the airport and ferry terminal at any time of the day or night. The hotel has a simple free breakfast with bagels and pastries. Wireless... More

First off, if you have an extra two days or so while traveling the Alcan to Alaska make sure you make the drive from Haines Junction, Yukon to Haines Alaska on the Haines highway 3/7. This road meanders along through the Yukon, BC and then into Alaska, high up in the mountains, skirting along Kluane National Park. High mountain passes... More

We spent 2 nights here as part of a 10 day trip around the Inside Passage. There aren't many options in Haines and, being September, there aren't many bargains to be had in Alaska. One of the main reasons we picked this hotel was the fact that they will shuttle you to and from the hotel. We flew into the... More

We stayed here from January 25-28, 2013. We had a hellacious drive from Fairbanks (ran into te ditch, lost our reaerve gas cans, lost our over head luggae carrier, deove theough the winter storm, and our battery was dead the next morning at the hotel) and picked this hotel, because it was pet friendly. We have a chiweenie, but a... More

this was an absolutely marvelous visit to a place and a town that just make you feel at home... accommodations rustic and maybe even, admittedly a bit shopworn, but that's all the part of the charm, and what better than a fresh plate of local smoked fish put out as "lagniappe" in the morning... we were fortunate enough to stay...

Good customer service. Convenient location, laundry facilities on site for long stays. We showed up 4 days before getting on ferry and we are very happy with this hotel. The view is great from our room. Only negative thing was free breakfast. We ended up going out to eat after the first morning. I would stay here again.

Great location and staff that really makes you feel welcome. The view is phenomenal. Freshly brewed coffee in the Lobby is most appreciated on a freezing October afternoon. Coming from Anchorage to catch the Ferry to Bellingham the next day, this is the place to stay in Haines, Alaska. It is a bit spendy, but worth it Check out is... More

When we changed plans to stay over in Haines so we could go to the Kroschel Films Wildlife Center (see tip on that), we also changed car rental and our hotel. Captain’s Choice offered a shuttle to/from the ferry, so that made a good option, and their cars are unlimited mileage – important when sightseeing and we were doing the... More
