The museum is quite small and is combined with a gift shop. It provides a little bit of information about the history of the Alyeska Resort, which is somewhat interesting. The views from the top though are very pretty. I would recommend taking the Aerial Tram or hiking up to get a look.

The staff at Alyeska lodge go to the extra mile to make our stay so fun and enjoyable for everyone. Their service extends to the members of our family not staying with us here in the lodge. This is like our home away from home where everyone is welcome! Our tram ride up was gorgeous, and learning some natural history on the way was a plus. The view here is amazing all the way around. Being able to play in the snow at the glacier viewing level was such a joy. Going to the bar for delightfully reinterpreted desserts was very memorable. Even more memorable were Marnie and Kasey, who work in the Seven Glaciers restaurant. They were funny and nice and let us come in, even though the restaurant was almost closed. We aren't accustomed to so much sunlight we wanted to keep having fun! Thank you! On an earlier visit to The Roundhouse we found the gift shop was well stocked with affordable, locally made souvenirs; the young women working there were really charming and fluent in English. It was a real treat to meet some nice ladies from Kazakhstan! This truly is a world-class destination.

Great view! Not a lot to do once you get up there though. Cost was in our tour so I cannot say if it was worth it

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in visiting the museum and seeing the wonderful sights from the top of the tram.

Roma Zabo

Amazing views. Worth of time and money

If you're unable to do the hike the tram is very worth it. Nice little gift shop at the top. Also there's drinks, food and booze to enjoy while taking in the fantastic views. Only complaint is the round house was 1 million degrees.

A museum. ..sorta. but mainly a gift shop, pricey but good quality. It is not a stand alone museum it is with the Alyeska resort. Great views.

Matt Chu

The tram ride to the top has some really nice views and includes some dining vouchers for food when you reach the top. The museum is more of a gift shop than a museum.

Chris Yust LaClaire

Lovely gift shop and wonderful views!

Miriam Eslinger

Stunning views, wonderful experience. We'll be back!

Jennifer Korban

Cafeteria was nice but it literally took forever to get our food... almost an hour! Just standing in line to order took over half an hour. Very frustrating when your starving after hiking all the way up there. We didn't even come during the lunch rush, it was a little after 2 when we got in line to order.

Lovely items in the gift shop and an enormous amount of historical information with amazing views of the surrounding area.

Beautiful hotel and setting. When visiting be sure to take the tram to the top of the mountain. The view is spectacular. Several glaciers and view of Turnigians arm.

Spencer Robinson

Great little stop to get warmed up at. Inside you have a history presented behind the resort and a model of the area with its surrounding Glaciers.

Adrien LeBlanc

Great views!

Aditi Mukhopadhyay

It's less a museum and more a gift shop. But the view from the deck is spectacular.

Matthew Bigman

Wonderful view, lovely location, but the "museum" feels like a hot of a tourist trap.

Ryan Stafford

The Round House Museum is a great spot to take pictures of Alyeska Resort, Girdwood, and the distant Turnagain Arm. I agree with some of the reviews that the Round House Museum can feel like a gift shop, however there is plenty of history inside to qualify as a museum. Visit their website for a preview! Grab a hot drink, relax, then go inside the Round House Museum to warm-up and learn more about the Alyeska Mountain.

Great location. A little pricey.

Must be in the most breathtaking spot for a museum in the world. Best place to charcoal out Girdwood and Alyeska's history. Lot of love and money went into it. Check it out
