Frommer's Review
This upscale hotel, above Crescent Harbor in the heart of the historic district, contains many comfortable rooms with sweeping views of Sitka Sound. The lobby suggests the building style of Northwest Native Americans, but the more anonymous rooms will be familiar to any business traveler, with furniture of warm wood and all the expected amenities. There's nowhere to stay that is more convenient to the sites or more comfortable for a broad range of travelers.
The Raven Dining Room restaurant shares the hotel's view and is one of the best places in town for an evening meal, with a quiet dining room that, while far from formal, is a bit more refined than the other choices in town. There's a long menu of seafood and beef in the evening, and even the more challenging entrees are expertly prepared. For a lighter meal, the bar menu is an excellent choice.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
