I had a mixed experience at the lodge. The rooms were clean and provided adequate window covering for a good sleep, but there was an issue with bed arrangements. The service was excellent, especially for assistance with excursions and Northern Lights viewing. The location was beautiful with plenty of activities, but it was a bit far from stores and restaurants. The dining experience was friendly, but the menu could have more variety. The facilities were great overall.

The lodge offers a much nicer experience in Alaska with clean and comfortable rooms that are conveniently located near the meeting area, the gift shop, and onsite restaurants. However, the rooms are described as tiny. The service is very helpful, and the staff will go out of their way to take care of you. The location, right on the Chena River, is perfect for those interested in Alaskan history and the Iditarod. The dining experience ranges from average to very good, with the buffet option highly recommended. The facilities are well-maintained and functional.

I was thrilled with the hotel’s great location right by the river, offering a lovely aspect and fun activities like bocce ball and walking trails. The rooms were nice, clean, and comfortable while the service was helpful and knowledgeable, although the corridor could have been clearer. The dining experience was really good with tasty breakfast options, but the dinner disappointments were noticeable. The hotel facilities were decent overall.

The staff was friendly and helpful, offering great suggestions for places to visit in Fairbanks. The location by the riverside was beautiful and convenient, with a shuttle service available to the airport.

Upon arrival, the rooms appeared older but were quite clean and provided adequate window coverings for uninterrupted sleep despite the daylight. The hotel possesses a slightly dim ambiance due to relatively poor lighting. The service at the information desk was consistently friendly and accommodating. The location, adorned with beautiful flowers at the entrance, enhanced my overall experience, notwithstanding the inconvenience of twin beds instead of a queen. The dining experience offered a good array of food but was sometimes chaotic due to a busy hostess managing the rush.
