Polite staff and good parking

The hotel had plenty of plug-in parking, something much needed for Fairbank's winters. The staff was polite, but not as friendly as in previous visits. There were issues with some of the other visitors to the facility, so save yourself a headache and call the front desk for assistance.

Speedy check in and a good breakfast

The check in process was quick and simple; the staff had my reservation and made a room change so I could stay near friends. The ice cream bar was a nice treat for my child, the breakfast was nicely laid out and had plenty of choices.

Pike's has a lit path (with Holiday lights) from the hotel over to the bar/restaurant next door. It was a very nice touch.

Everything was just wonderful, the room was very clean, the staff was nice and the hotel was rustic (which we like) but had alot to offer. We were sorry we only had 1 day there.

Very good place to stay in Alaska

I would recommend this hotel to others. Good location and a restaurant in walking distance. Nice view at the river. However, wireless is not available in each room. If you are for business this can be a problem.

Hotel great; Orbitz not so much

This was a great hotel and an enjoyable stay. However, something went wrong with the booking through Orbitz, and the hotel had no record of it, at least that's what they said. They still had a room available, however, and I ended up paying a higher rate. Fortunately it was worthwhile, but I'm not sure whether or not to trust Orbitz with future hotel bookings.

Needs improvement

The grounds were beautiful. The little cabins and being right on the water were rustic without having to leave the road. However the A/C did not work and waking up sweaty in the middle of the night in a hotel this nice was unacceptable. I love a cold dark hotel room for great night's sleep. The square bed pillows were too puffy. Lastly the price was fantastic for tourist season.
