With 252 modern and design-forward rooms, this locally owned lifestyle hotel - the first JdV by Hyatt property in Alaska - anchors the burgeoning West Fourth Avenue corridor, a hub for shopping, dining, historic and cultural experiences. Designed to serve as both a community gathering space and a basecamp for tourists seeking Alaska adventure on every level, The Wildbirch Hotel is a destination itself.
Guests of The Wildbirch Hotel enjoy an elevated, communal outdoor deck with cozy fire pits and sweeping views of Mount Susitna and Knik Arm; onsite dining; and an expansive 5,200-square-feet of meeting and event space that caters to every occasion.
“Watching this place come to life has been an honor,” says Haje Thurau, general manager of The Wildbirch Hotel.
“It's very special to see our overnight guests immerse themselves in the Anchorage lifestyle, engage with locals and discover what makes our little corner of Alaska such a magical place.”
Inspired by Alaska's breathtaking summer sunsets and helmed by Executive Chef La Mont Caldwell, Crimson – the hotel's signature restaurant – is a dining destination for guests and locals alike. Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the creative menu offers high-end twists on Alaska staples, all with a touch of Pan-American Latin flair in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Al fresco dining is available seasonally on Crimson's terrace, and small groups up to 16 people are invited to reserve the private dining room. Crimson's bar serves a truncated menu and hotel guests can enjoy the unique culinary offerings of its menu in-room daily.
“We are confident Crimson will make its mark on Anchorage's buzzing dining scene,” says Gary McCutcheon, the hotel's director of food and beverage.
“Chef La Mont is extremely talented and we're looking forward to treating our hotel guests to classic Alaska dishes, while surprising and delighting our Alaskans with a few twists on old favorites.”
Canteen Coffee Co., located in the lobby of The Wildbirch Hotel, offers unique provisions and souvenirs from local artisans alongside espresso, coffee, fresh juices, grab-and-go food options and more. Guests can enter the space through the hotel lobby or order through its streetside walk-up window.
Coming this fall, The Undertap – concepted and executed in partnership with the team behind Anchorage's Midnight Sun Brewing Co. – is a laidback tasting room where craft beer enthusiasts can sip a unique variety of locally-brewed pours. A relaxed space for private events and meetings is located adjacent to the tasting room.
“It's our great pleasure to introduce The Wildbirch Hotel to Anchorage,” says co-owner Mark Begich, previous Mayor of Anchorage from 2003-2009 and United States Senator from 2009-2015.
“This property offers a unique, modern Alaska experience unlike anywhere else.”
Begich and his partner, Sheldon Fisher – also a former public servant, who served as Alaska's State Revenue Commissioner – formed MASH, LLC to further spark the revitalization of downtown Anchorage with The Wildbirch Hotel project and several others in the works. MASH has collaborated with leading hotel management company, Springboard Hospitality, to operate the hotel.
As Alaska's first JdV by Hyatt property, The Wildbirch Hotel has joined the World of Hyatt loyalty program. Members can earn points on qualifying stays at The Wildbirch Hotel to use towards free nights, dining, experiences and more.
