We had a great time in Alaska Feb 2025. Pike’s was convenient to the airport and all of our excursions picked up from Pike’s. The hotel was clean and had a great restaurant next door. There were fun things to do around the property.

This was really a nice hotel and stay was good. Breakfast was awesome: good food and multiple food options hot and cold. We ate 1 meal in the restaurant and the food and service was good. We rode the shuttle from the train station and to the airport which was very convenient. Also rented a car from Alaska auto and we picked the car up at the hotel and drop off was at the hotel. So convenient and easy process. All done online! Will definitely stay here again next time I’m in Fairbanks

Love Pike's waterfront lodge. There is a shuttle service to the airport at Any time! The staff is very friendly, the gift shop is open 24 hrs (next to the check in counter) and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. I loved the free continental breakfast especially the waffle maker (one of the amenities I look for in booking rooms). There are also cabins on site besides the hotel rooms. Love this place! I would definitely book again if given the opportunity.

Cabins

When we arrived our room was not ready, so we stored our luggage and ate at the restaurant. Our experience there was not that great. The cabin wasn't what we expected. It was nice, but the kitchen part of the cabin was really tiny. The refrigerator door was backwards, so i was hard to look in it. The coffee maker and cups were really small. I had to ask for more coffee from the front desk. The shower pressure was not that strong and the water was not that hot. We had a hard time changing the channel on the television. We thought it was the battery but the front desk said we had to hold down the button on the remote control until the channel changed. It was really frustrating. A nice touch to the place was coffee in the lobby and breakfast. The fire place by the cabins were really nice as well. If it wasn't cloudy we probably would be able to see the aurora borealis. Also, Pikes is not located in a walking distance from a Fred Meyers (an all in one store) or anything.

Cute, clean rooms with fridge, mic, and coffee machine. Lots of fun, simple activities like a theatre, a sweet little library, giant globe with interactive science screens, reindeer, restaurant next door, free parking, photo ops, aurora wake-up call. Too warm for safe sledding and a couple of things were undergoing renovation, but still so much to offer guests that I have probably forgotten some of them.

Why would you stay at a boring chain hotel when you can stay here? Such a unique place! We stayed in a room in the main lodge, but they have cabins and other accomodations, with more being built. Our room was "cozy" but clean, comfortable, and everything was in good condition. In addition, there's so much to do here! There's a sledding hill, an Aurora theatre, a heated Aurora viewing room, fire pits (you can get s'mores kits there or bring your own) and they are constantly adding something new. Not to mention a great included breakfast (at least when we were there in the winter). And the staff couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. They'll even call you if the Aurora are active. The shuttle is free, and available 24/7. Also, you would think that you might hear the airplanes being so close to the airport, but I never heard them once in the week we were there. I ever find myself in Fairbanks again, I will definitely be back.

We came to chase the northern lights for a week, and Pikes was a good base for us to do that. Everything you need is close at hand and it's a nice comfy facility. If we come up next year to do the same thing we would definitely stay there again
