Scandia House

My wife and I stayed here from 24-28 August. First time visiting Petersburg. PRO: -Good location downtown, within easy walking distance to everything. -Rooms are spacious, with excellent tub/shower/sink. -Elevator and stairs provide easy access to all floors. -Excellent ice machine on second floor! -Coffee and muffins provided every morning. -Manager, Juno, provided very good guest service when she was on duty, including helping me print copies of my out of state fishing license. -Decent WiFi connection at no charge. -Plenty of electrical outlets in the room. CON: -Our room facing the street was very noisy until late in the evening, due to bar goers whooping it up and racing their car engines. (One of the few downsides of the warm, sunny weather we experienced, which required us to keep our window open!) -Very uncomfortable pillows, thick and solid. -Didn’t have housekeeping service even once during our 4-day stay. We would have appreciated having the trash emptied, floor vacuumed, clean towels added at least once. -While the day and early evening front desk staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the overnight dude was clearly not happy to be there, and appeared to do nothing during his shift. There was a town-wide power outage early in the morning of our last day, which triggered the automatic closing doors on the stairwells and elevator access. When power was restored 90 minutes later, he didn’t reopen any of the doors, leaving that chore to us guests. -The television service was really annoying. We started watching a movie, and after about 45 minutes the TV cut to a news channel without us touching the remote. This happened twice. It was also difficult to access the channel guide. We gave up watching it. Bottom Line: This is an okay hotel, but if you go, bring your own pillow, earplugs, and a large plastic trash bag.

Nice clean room. Nice bathroom and very good shower. The rooms DO NOT have fridge or microwave. There is no continental breakfast, just coffee orange juice and muffins in the coffee runs out fast.

I travel a lot for work and this is one of the nicest non-chain hotels I have ever stayed at. Friendly staff, clean rooms, quiet atmosphere, there is nothing else to ask for. I’ll book here again!

Great location, easily walkable from dock. Stayed in a large room on the 4th floor, big bathroom with bath and separate shower, great nights sleep.|Food places all around it and a great laundry very near.|This ticked the boxes for an Alaska hotel.

Please add coffee makers to the rooms. It's really annoying to have to ask for coffee every single morning. I even put in a request the day before for coffee in the morning & still have to ask again EVERY SINGLE TIME. 🙃

Good location in the town, decorations are a little tacky but I like how you can chosse to have warm or cold lighting in your room. No kitchenette sucks but at least theirs a microwave in the lobby and a tv. I like how theirs a place to keep your luggage if u checkout but dont want to drag it everywhere, they also offer car rental :)

Scandia House is a cute hotel in the town of Petersburg, population about 3,200. There are not a lot of lodging options but no need to look further if you want a hotel. Rooms were clean and the front desk staff were very helpful. I would have liked to stay longer! The entire town is pretty much walkable from this location. They drove us to the airport for our flight. The king-size beds were great! Petersburg is basically an American fishing village whose entire economy revolves around the water and fishing.
