Thanks for the very helpful reply. We had already decided we would skip the SS tour, so you confirmed that we had made a good choice. I'm looking forward to the train! I assume the hospitality room is just a place to wait for a transfer to the airport.

I am sailing on the Silver Shadow from Vancouver to Seward on June 23. I understand that Silversea takes us from Seward to Anchorage aboard a train, but our flight isn't until 8:30 pm. What happens between arrival in Anchorage and getting to the airport? The Silversea info mentions the Hilton, and transfers to the airport, but where do people wait? Are there rooms or lounges? Can you leave luggage and explore Anchorage? I would love to hear from someone who has actually been on this trip. Thanks!
Another newbie question about butlers
in Silversea

Our butler arranged a late snack served in our room when we did an evening excursion that got us back to the ship after 10:30 pm. He suggested it when we told him what we doing, and he had it all ready when we got back. It was wonderful. Some friends had a cocktail party in their cabin for us, and the butler arranged for hors d'oeuvres and cocktails. Finally, our butler knew I had strained my lower back, and he put a hot water bottle on my bed, with a carafe of hot water to use if I need to add water during the night.
I was so impressed with the attention he paid to what we were doing, and the helpful ideas of how to be of use.
