Summary: Airport shuttle to hotel was easy. They even shuttled us to Princess lodge next morning no charges. Rooms: quaint individual cottages, very clean and comfortable. We were happier here than at Fairbanks Princess Lodge! Breakfast buffet was good. Don't miss Museum of North, Soapy Smith Pioneer Restaurant downtown (owner is long time Alaskan and shares a wealth of info + good food, Pioneer Park for Salmon Bake and don't miss the Golden Heart Revue at the Palace Theatre
Cindy Aug 26, 2025 12:53:19 AM
Summary: It's a nice place but if you want breakfast, it costs $21.95 per person and it was about equal to what we usually get for free at other hotels.
Christie Aug 1, 2025 04:23:25 PM
Summary: Parking was a bit wonky but other than that enjoyed our stay. Nice not sharing walls. The patio outside the cabin was nice for breakfast. Will stay again. The RV park looked very nice as well. The restaurant was speedy but the food and atmosphere were nice.

Summary: Good classic hotel near the airport and the city. Great customer service
Iris Jul 21, 2025 10:31:07 AM
Summary: We were able to check-in a bit early which was very convenient. Our bush plane flight came in at noon from Eagle and our flight to Seattle did not leave until 12:15am so we needed a room for just a few hours to shower and repack.
Jennifer Jul 8, 2025 12:45:54 AM
Summary: Clean room, nice property along the river. We enjoyed the walking path near the water. Staff was friendly. We used the shuttle a few times, which was very convenient.
Michele Jul 4, 2025 03:26:16 AM
Summary: This was a nice place for the location on the river. The cabins are cute although dated. Restaurant had a limited menu but was still tasty!
jonathan Jul 3, 2025 09:12:17 AM
Summary: A truly great little gem. I had a cabin near the lodge and it was wonderful. I was in town for work so I didnt really get to spend all that much time there but I can tell you this, the time I did spend there was quiet, tranquil, and relaxing. I worked 19 hours the first day I was in town and I couldnt have found a better place to get home to afterwards.
