It was really cool staying in such a historic place. The only downside to my stay was a rather loud birthday party downstairs in the tavern but the staff provided ear plugs which I really appreciated. The staff could not have been more helpful- special shout out to the cleaning staff.

Really neat place! There are only a couple rooms, and the bathrooms are shared because the building is really old. Everything was clean and we really enjoyed it. It’s a little busier, and there is a bar directly below that sometimes has live music - so if that’s not your thing, don’t book here. My wife and I loved it!

The very best bar - how could a grizzly on the ceiling, a disco ball with hanging handles and a musk ox wearing pearls be a mistake? Super friendly staff that made you feel welcome and a local hangout. Seven lodging rooms upstairs (noisy bar downstairs - earplugs provided!) share 2 clean full bathrooms in the hall. In the heart of this small historic district, where everything is walkable. Best sit down breakfast in town, large portions and made to order. Lots of choices for lunch and dinner, with food trucks and scratch kitchens all around.

We enjoyed staying in such a clean, historic hotel. The queen size bed was firm and comfortable. Sharing two available bathrooms with showers was manageable because guests were cooperative. Check the concert schedule before you stay, though! Even with ear plugs provided, sleeping will be difficult when a band is playing downstairs until 1 am or later. But, the bar/dining room will be open for breakfast at 8 am in the morning with coffee!

It's a room above a bar so it comes with all that is expected. And a little pricey considering the shared bathroom. But honestly a great time. If a good old fashioned adventure is what you're after, this is the place to be. Close to everything donwtown. Just be aware, it is what it says on the tin....but the earplugs do help a LOT if you want to sleep before the bar closes.

Historic Inn

The Fairview Inn is a historic hotel and bar in Talkeetna! Definitely worth spending a night at and getting a drink/listening to live music! It is centrally located so extremely easy to walk to other shops, restaurants, bars, and the museum in town.
