I have booked a cruise with Princess Cruises which advertises that this location is part of the cruise tour and features it prominently on their web video, making a very attractive sales pitch which helped convince us to book with Princess. We have never used Princess before and thought we would give them a try. This Lodge looks beautiful but... More

I was a bit concerned after reading the reviews but thought it was an adequate & nice property. Our room was comfortable (though we couldn't get the temp figured out) & great view of the Chena River. We enjoyed eating at the little bar area and the servers were very friendly. There was a line for the breakfast buffet this... More

Stayed here several nights between side trips in the Fairbanks area. Good location near the airport. Rooms clean and modern with very good prices during the slow winter season. Prices higher during the summer but the prices everywhere are higher during tourist season.

Owned by Princess Lines we were here in March when the cruise ship buses were not here. I am certain their absence added to the relaxed feel of our stay. The hotel is outfitted in original Alaskan art works and decor. Our room, at a very reasonable price,overlooked the Chena River and had a desk, table and chair with ottoman... More

My husband and I stayed here the night before an early flight and found it to be quite comfortable. We are not tourists so our expectations might be different than most others. Check in was friendly, efficient. The common areas had a gas fireplace, tables to sit and plan the day, comfortable couches if you are waiting for someone. The... More

We stayed here at the end of our land based tour after our cruise. We took a bit of a gamble and booked an extra 3 nights a year previously so we could stay in Fairbanks and see the Northern Lights, do a couple of tours etc. The accomodation is pretty standard for a hotel chain. The staff ranged from... More

more experienced staff than other Princess Lodges as this hotel is open year round-also a bit more in depth knowledge of the city and area due to that longevity-nice room and clean and comfortable hotel-the back outside patio and bar were outstanding on a warm sunny day; friendly front desk staff-bar staff very good; food was good to very good;...

We stayed at the Princess hotel for 2 nights, included in our Princess land tour. At the Princess Lodge, the hotel lobby is beautiful and the rooms are clean. Those are the only positives I can list. Most of the staff were very rude, especially at the excursion desk. The room was small and very outdated. The restaurant was terrible... More

Well, I'm not sure what other people expect in a hotel, but my husband, brother, sister-in-law, and myself were happy with our rooms and the food. I can't speak for all of the rooms, but our two rooms had areas for suitcases, lots of hangers (and them actually can be removed from the rod), a comfortable bed, and large bathroom.... More

This was the first stop on our Cruise/Tour. We were anticipating a wild and rustic Alaska. So we found this hotel to be adequate. The staff was quite accommodating. The town of Fairbanks left much to be desired, but the lodging was fine.
