Places to stay in Utqiagvik

I had to cancel due to a blizzard. CP refunded much of the trip and send follow-up emails letting me know how the weather was in Utqiagvik. That helped me make some important decisions about my work trip and let me reschedule some things faster than I would have. It was very much appreciated.

While I did not meet CP personally, Jack the host and his wife were exceptionally polite, accommodating and helpful. They helped me to make arrangements for a guided tour around town which was very helpful as the weather was so severe. The room itself was quite beautiful and spacious. I was pleasantly surprised at the large room and bath and also the very comfortable bed and furniture. I had a great window for viewing the area immediately around me. The common area downstairs was warm and cozy with a fireplace and beautiful Inupiat craft work. Just stunning! I would give this place more than 5 starts, if I could. I plan to make another trip to Barrow within the year and I hope I can get accommodations here again when I do. :)

Our stay and our visit to Barrow is PERFECT. Our bedroom and the shared bathroom and living room is super neat and beautiful. It was very quiet at night. On the check out day, Susan allowed us to hang around until our flight time. The town is walkable and takes 30 minutes tops to walk to most of the places from the house. Susan makes amazing breakfast and dinner. She gave us many great tips about where to visit in town. She also helped us to book a tour with a local guide to Point Barrow (and we saw polar bears!!). All the other guests are super nice, welcoming and had amazing travel stories. We had so much fun talking to each other during dinner and breakfast. 100% recommended if you want to make friends & learn more about the top of the world!! (ps: when we went there, the internet has been down for a month for the whole town. Make sure you downloaded offline map and saved the address. Airport staff can help you call a taxi to Susan's house, which takes like 4 minutes.)

Barrow is a great place to visit - it is unlike any place we've ever visited. Latitude 71 is a great place to stay! Myron was a wealth of knowledge and we enjoyed learning more about life in the Arctic. The Heritage Center has an incredible whaling exhibit - definitely worth checking out. Everything was exactly as advertised by Susan and Myron; we will stay again if we return to Barrow!

Amazing as usual❣️🎉 Susan and Myron are top notch hosts❣️⭐️ Experience Barrow in comfort at this super warm, comfortable, well appointed Airbnb. Super luxurious linens, bedding, and decor just add to this A+++ stay! Breakfast is made to order and by far the best you can experience in Barrow. Experience a top notch stay while in Barrow at Latitude 71! Why stay anywhere else? I come back time and time again and am never disappointed 😊

Susan was absolutely amazing! Her place is so much more than expected. She made us feel comfortable and did an awesome job showing us around. She had extensive knowledge of Barrow and has played a vital role in the community for some time. Very clean and well established B&B. One of the best I've stayed in and it's located at the top of the world!

Had a fantastic stay at Susan's house. The house is quite warm and spacious and is only a 5 minute walk to the Cultural Center and Museum as well as supermarket. The house has multiple rooms that you can explore (if no one else is sleeping in them of course) and features many intriguing Alaskan displays including sculptures, dolls, and pictures not to mention a giant polar bear hanging from the rails. I'm so glad I opted to stay here versus the Top of the World Hotel as Susan might be the only one in town who actually offers an in-depth private tour (at extra cost) that includes areas that most tourist could never see or reach, including wildlife, a scientific research station - all in an awesome jacked-up truck! She even let me use her binoculars to try and spot polar bears! So if you're sort of on the fence about booking or not, definitely do it!

I would highly recommend staying at Latitude over the other options in town. The accommodations are cozy and comfortable. It’s the best breakfast in Barrow.

I am delighted with the hospitality of Susan and Myron. Very comfortable room, beautiful living room. It's hard to describe the food experience in words. Breakfasts and dinners are great. And it's not somewhere in Manhattan or near the Golden Gate. There are no Potomac River or Miami Beach hotels. Arctic Ocean, ascetic coast, wild nature. Every time I crossed the threshold, it was a step into another reality. The reality of the high standards of the American dream at its best. Even if you don't need to go to Utqiavgik, my advice to you is to pack your bags and book a room for the weekend with these wonderful people. Two hours flight from Anchorage is worth so. Good additional reason to visit Utqiavgik - most northern point of the country;)
