Getting to Ketchikan
Ketchikan is served by Alaska Airlines, with several flights a day from Seattle and points north in Alaska. The airport is on Gravina Island, just across from Ketchikan, and requires a short ferry trip across Tongass Narrows. The hostel is about 2 1/2 miles toward downtown.
Ketchikan is also served by the Alaska Marine Highway System, with frequent arrivals from both Seattle and Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada, as well as from the cities of Alaska's panhandle. The hostel is about two miles toward downtown from the ferry terminal.
About the hostel
The Ketchikan Hostel is located in the heart of historic downtown Ketchikan on the corner of Main and Grant streets (see the map below). Nearby are a variety of gift shops and restaurants and a grocery store within a half mile. Cruise ship docks are nearby and a borough bus stop is just a block away.
We are not able to accommodate any pets, and please, no smoking, alcohol or illegal drugs. Children under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.
