Iconic Alaska Experience

Iconic Alaska experience in Fairbanks. Cozy and comfortable with a homey feel. Not slick and polished, which is a good thing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

It was conveniently located by the fairbanks airport and a free hotel shuttle was available. There was plentifuly parking out front as well. The decor is warm & rustic. The rooms spacious and clean. The staff was incredibly friendly. The included breakfast every morning was a wonderful way to get the day started of correctly. The first night we were there, aurora activity was forecasted and the front desk was kind enough to give us a wake up call and we were able to see the aurora just outside the hotel. Given that fairbanks is not that sprawling, driving to the various sightseeing locations from this hotel was easy as well.

We contacted the lodge for airport shuttle service after claiming our baggage and the shuttle arrived quickly. The staff are courteous and professional. The lodge is well maintained but clearly a bit dated.

Staff is not friendly like they claim. Was disrespected by staff. The person behind counter unplugged the toaster while muffin mid cooking and said it wasn’t time yet. We were leaving for airport. She walked away without explanation. It was rude and cruel.

Pikes Waterfront is a fantastic place to stay in Fairbanks. It's close to the airport and provides a free shuttle bus. Its well kept and has beautiful decor that suits the log cabin style buildings. There is a complimentary breakfast with lots of selections to choose from. Enjoy the pool table, theater, kidsplay area, reindeer amd other activities on site. The chena river is right in the backyard and theres a great observation area to watch the northern lights

The place looks nice from the outside, but the inside needs a lot of work. The rooms definitely don’t have enough closet space, and it’s not as clean as it should be.
