United States of America22 Reviews1 helpful vote“Comfortable, roomy with easy access to highway & was quiet.”The room was a bit warm. Opened a window to cool it down. That worked just fine. No ice on 2nd floor but elevator was reasonably prompt when called.
Breakfast was fine. Female attendant ( with point tail) was SUPURB! Very quick & efficient clearing tables, answering question & very cheerful & friendly. It was easy to come & go while we were there. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable very professional in their service to the guests. Ice cream was a good idea, if a bit pricey.

Australia63 Reviews10 helpful votes“Best place to stay in Fairbanks”Use of plastics, paper and disposable cups, cutlery and plates. In such a pristine location it just seems wrong. It cheapens the whole experience.
Great old style lodge accommodation right on the Chena River.it's quirky and eccentric in an Alaskan style with stuffed bears and antique artworks. Ideal for seeing northern lights - you even get wake-up calls when they are dancing across the sky. Free breakfast (although basic) is filling and an easy start to the day. Much nicer than the corporate hotels in the town.

I loved the included breakfasts (better than your usual continental breakfast), the daily $1 ice cream in the salon, the sauna, and the view of the Chena River.

We didn't wind up trying the breakfast, but it looked good.

Breakfast buffet basic but good.”Rooms were dark as the heavy curtains were needed to keep the warmth in with only lamp lighting. Great location as I stated but as its a good distance from town there are no other restaurant options to easily visit without a car. Kitchenette with full size fridge and microwave but no utensils, cutlery or plates.
A very "Alaskan" lodge with character. I stayed on night in an "Aurora View" room prior to a three night stay in a comfy cabin. Comfortable common areas and the theatre room showing an old but interesting Aurora doco was good. Breakfast basic but suitable. The restaurant/bar a walk across the parking area was good. Great location not far from the airport and free shuttle. If the aurora was showing it would be a perfect location but alas cloudy and snowing when I visited.

United States of America1 review“Winter trip to see the Aurora”It would have been nice to have less lights outside when trying to see the Aurora. The hotel makes it seem like it is geared to that, but it really isn't
This was a convenient location to the airport. Breakfast was pretty good, although they do not have enough seating to accommodate the crowd. We enjoyed the ice cream in the late afternoons
