Overall I would say that this hotel has met basic expectations, clean and comfy room, a nice pleasant environment and nice lobby with a convenient shop too....however there is no wifi connectivity in the room and hence was very inconvenient for me to bring my laptop to the main hall to use internet....despite the fact that they said free wifi...

This was a lovely surprise after staying at the Denali Princess earlier that week. While the rooms at the Denali Princess were just so-so, the rooms at the Fairbanks Princess were great. Our perception may have been skewed just a little because we had been staying in the Alaskan Wilderness north of the Arctic Circle for most of the trip... More

First stop on a Princess Cruise/Tour.. Great service, great view of the river, good room and a wonderful start to our 2 week trip. Was pleasantly surprised with the overall condition of the hotel considering the short season. Would stay nhere again when ever in Fairbanks. More

We stayed at the Fairbanks Princess Riverside Lodge as part of a prearranged land tour through Princess Cruiselines. From start to finish, our experience at this lodge was much less than we expected. We arrived via the Alaska Railroad as part of a Princess Cruiseline arranged trip. Typically, when we got off our transportation to the Princess lodges, things were... More

My wife and I stayed at the Fairbanks Princess from July 12 - July 14. When we got to our room, #154, we were struck by a smell I can only describe as strange. It might have been from the heavy mold all around the bathtub. The roll of toilet paper on the dispenser had not been replaced prior to... More

We booked this hotel for the good rates but really liked it. Our room had nice views of the Chena river. The best part was that there is a huge patio behind the place right on the Chena river. We spent both evenings we were there sitting on the patio enjoying the late evening sunshine, reading, playing cards, and you... More

We stayed here one night as part of a Princess land/cruise tour. The halls were dirty & needed vacuuming. We had a beautiful large room with air-conditioning equipment running all night in a building right outside our room. There was a dirty towel behind our bathroom door. We couldn’t walk on the dock—the sign said “closed for the season.” The... More

We stayed here 3 nights at the start of our Alaskan cruise/tour, 2 nights came with our tour and we bought one night ourselves online (two rooms for a group of 7). We previously stayed in this hotel in 2006. Our room in 2006 was newer than our room in 2011. I wasn't really impressed with the room in 2006... More

I sit here and laugh at some of the reviews. I tried in May to book a room here over the internet (for June 18-21)as we were independent travelers and Fairbanks was the end of our vacation. There was a problem with one or two of the days I needed the room so I booked our last three days at... More

We stayed at Fairbanks Princess Riverside Lodge as part of the Landtour with Princess Cruises. The facility is located near the airport. We ate breakfast in the buffet where we tried the "reindeer sausage" in omelets. It was tasty. The only problem we encountered was with the A/C. It didn't work, when we went to our room it was 85...
