Front Door Bed and Breakfast was a great place to stay on our visit to Seward. The room and bathroom were fairly small but comfortable. The shared living area was fantastic with incredible views from every angle. We had a lovely chat with the manager, Sarah, who was extremely friendly and gave us plenty of ideas about activities in the area. We didn’t go to the sister property for breakfast, although we heard from other guests that the breakfast was phenomenal. However each morning there were delicious fresh baked goods in our kitchen as well as fresh fruit, juice, coffee, tea, and everything that was needed to make a complete breakfast. We spent some great hours sitting in the living room reading and watching the fabulous clouds and sunlight dance on the glaciers.

Worth every penny. The property is gorgeous and the hosts are really sweet. The breakfast was very tasty and they even allowed us an early check-in, which was so nice. Would absolutely stay again.

We truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. After we saw the ocean view picture on the website, we immediately canceled our earlier booking in another local hotel and chose this one. It was a right decision! The view from the window is breathtaking with ocean waves nearby, snow mountains afar, and sea birds flying low and high, far more better than any pictures that could possibly depict. Imagining you have a cup of hot coffee in hand and sit in Tom’s rocking chair in front of huge window, life is as good as you can get! The house is located in the historical downtown next to the Waterfront Park. If you come to Seward by cruise or train, you can take Free Shuttle at cruise terminal/train station and drop off at Stop #11. The house is about 20-30 meters from the shuttle stop. We used Free Shuttle to our cruise for next journey. It is very convenient (and free). The unit has everything we expected, upscale, comfortable, clean and welcoming. The owner Tom is such an amazing gentleman to chat with, knowing so much about salmon, AK history back to 17th century, local tribes, glaciers, and global warming! His advice (to have layers on) made our day during our one-day-long boat tour to glacier! Also, don’t miss Sarah’s sour-dough waffle for your breakfast - it derives from the sour dough made 23 years ago!! We sincerely thank Tom to share this wonderful house with us and highly recommend to you all!

Had a great 3 night's stay at the Bear's Den at Front Row Bed and Breakfast. Clean and cozy in-law-suite under the main B+B, with its own kitchenette and bathroom. It had everything to cook a simple meal. The bed was very comfortable. The place was right across the street from the waterfront, with access to a beautiful walk along the shore. Tom was very friendly as the owner, and Sarah and Kristen were great as the B+B managers as well. Bear's Dean guests can also access the common area in the main B+B to lounge, relax, and cook as well if needed. Parking was super easy in the driveway right in front of the unit. Excellent cooked breakfast every morning by the B+B managers at the nearby Northern Lights B+B kitchen/dining area as well included. Would definitely stay here again.

Can not express enough how much we enjoyed this property. Kitchen had everything need to make breakfast or you can walk next store to sister B&B and have it prepared for you.
Most impressive was living room where you can sit and enjoy unobstructed views of Resurrection bay and mountains beyond

The basement apartment-like accommodation was ideal for our family. Beautiful view of water & mountains, location at mile zero of Iditarod trail, and convenient to downtown Seward. Phone calls/emails returned promptly. Very clean studio, and comfortable beds. Breakfast included, either prepared, or do it yourself with grocery items stocked in refrigerator. All the extra touches and kind/friendly staff made our stay wonderful.

The decor is rustic Alaskan. Location is perfect for up town dinning and still just a short drive to the docks.

Owner of property lives in the property which means the property is better kept than average. In fact, this property is the best B&B that I have been to in last 10 properties that I've been to.

We had such a wonderful 3-night stay in the Bear's Den (the room downstairs w/ 2 beds and kitchen). Having a kitchen was unexpectedly handy as many restaurants were closed or too busy to get in. We were provided ingredients in our fridge to cook eggs, sausage, potatoes, etc. We chose to take breakfast in nearby property, which was outstanding. Beds were comfortable. Access to laundry was a bonus. Best of all -- THE VIEW!!! Absolutely breathtaking!!! Hosts were helpful and friendly. Stay here!

Bed was unique but the head board branch was out over the bed.

I did not know exactly what to expect from this room (a few more pictures would help: sorry, we actually did not take any inside). It is a studio, and we booked it for 4 people. The pictures always show just one queen bed, so I was wondering what the other arrangement was: turns out it is a Murphy bed, which was convenient and comfortable. With four people in the room, it is a bit crowded, so we would go upstairs to look out the front windows and talk with others who were staying there. The kitchen in the studio is complete and stocked.. plus you get to use a very well stocked kitchen up stairs. They provided eggs, potatoes, onions and sausage to make a breakfast (plus have tea/coffee/juice/milk and fruit) to make a breakfast, or you can walk about 50 yards to get a breakfast made and sit comfortably at a table in their sister establishment. We did both, which worked well. Oh.. the studio is in a very nice, new house, situated about as well as you can in Seward. All-in-all, a great stay.

This was a great stay for my family. Tom and Sarah were extremely helpful and nice. The breakfast was extra special. My family would highly recommend staying at The Front Row.

We loved our stay here. We had our own separate entrance on the bottom floor and also our own small kitchen. The kitchen was stocked with a good choice breakfast items (including fresh blueberry, rhubarb bread) or if we had time we could eat a great "cooked to order breakfast" at their nearby property. We also had access to the common areas of our property with panoramic views of Resurrection Bay. The view from our room was also outstanding. The manager was very helpful in arranging activities for which we received discounts and in recommending excellent restaurants. The property was in walking distance from most restaurants and the Alaska Sea Life Center. Great location.
