Concierge - AK

[lesage]

I have read what is provided thru the concierge service at AK - but:
What items are available for the breakfast?
What items are available for the appetizers?

I am trying to figure out if it is worth it - we would eat a large lunch and "get by" with the breakfast and appetizers.

What hours are the food items available?

Do all concierge rooms have a Savanna view?

Is there any other benefit that makes it worth the extra price?

There are lots of benefits to concierge service that account for its higher price (the lounge, trip planning assistance prior to and during your trip, a separate check in which is usually quicker than the front desk check, etc.). One can make a light breakfast of fruit and cereal from what is put out in the lounge, but the snacks in the afternoon/evening will not (and are not intended to) substitute for dinner. Concierge will probably not be worth it to you if you can only afford it by assuming that the lounge food will replace the evening meal (and its cost).

I have read that there are danishes, cereals, fruit, coffee and juices for breakfast and snacky foods during the afternoon like goldfish crackers, cookies, gummy bears etc

You might be able to. However, I found the appetizers to be montanous after a few days. They are basically African and use African spices. You might find they don't agree w/you.

I would make a lunch ADR and a dinner ADR. If you're not hungry at dinner time, you can just skip your ADR.
