Mahogany Manor offers an upscale, comfortable lodging experience located on a half acre wooded bluff lot at the edge of downtown.

We offer the ambiance of a quiet, secluded first class lodge that is within walking distance to the city center, Anchorage Museum of History and Art and Sullivan Arena.

Revered as an "architectural masterpiece", the manor house was originally built in 1947 with additions in 1952 and 1962. It is known by many as the "original mansion of Anchorage", and was designed for entertaining friends as well as dignitaries visiting Alaska during the '60s and '70's.

Guests may relax in the comfort of their private room, enjoy viewing the extensive collection of Alaskan artwork or socialize with others in any of the three expansive lounge areas.

The common lounges feature large screen TV's, two grand fireplaces and impressive panoramas of the surrounding grounds through oversized windows. Savor the sound of the floor to ceiling waterfall at breakfast and at the end of a busy day, sip your favorite beverage while relaxing next to a cozy crackling fireplace.

Of course our location offers easy access to an abundance of restaurants, shopping and recreation. A bus stop, walking path, bike path and cross country ski trail are all nearby.

During festivities, we are less than 1/2 block from the world famous Iditarod and World Championship dog-mushing trail on Cordova street, and we overlook Mulcahy Park for fireworks. Both are viewed through three walls of picture windows or the 800 S.F.

In-room amenities include private bath, telephone, high-speed cable modem, cable TV with VCR, hair dryer, iron 7 ironing board, robes & slippers, Alaskan chocolates and more.
