Fun, cute, and quirky hotel that we really enjoyed. It’s a little farther from downtown but there’s a lot to do on the hotel property. The staff were very nice and helpful with things like tour recommendations, and the included breakfast was very good.

It was an amazing place to stay in Fairbanks, AK! We had a wonderful time — the breakfast was delicious, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We were lucky enough to see the Aurora one night right from our room! There’s also a great restaurant next door, which is super convenient when you don’t want to drive far from the lodge. Highly recommend!
