"The room is very nice and spacious, but the TV was not watchable (very bad streaming, on every channel) and at noon time there was no hot water to shower, you would have to wait until later in the afternoon. As to the property, the convenience store/coffee shop was closed for renovation the entire time we were there, and the only open restaurant post-breakfast had no creamer for the coffee. One of the reasons I booked this hotel was because it was supposed to have these amenities, we did not rent a car and since we were staying up late each night to go for Aurora excursions we missed breakfast and wanted coffee at later time. I had to DoorDash coffee every day and even a few other items that the convenience store would have had. Otherwise, nice and clean room and property in general, I would stay again if these other things were to work. "

"Breakfast was okay. Nothing special but at least they had fresh fruit"

"We had a very frustrating experience with the check-in process. We called ahead specifically to make arrangements for our elder, made sure everything was communicated in advance, and even provided a card to cover incidentals so there would be no issues upon arrival. Despite doing everything we were told to do ahead of time, when she arrived they still were not going to allow her to check in. It was stressful, confusing, and completely unnecessary—especially after we had already taken the proper steps to avoid exactly this kind of situation. For an elder, this kind of delay and uncertainty should never happen. The lack of coordination and communication at the front desk made what should have been a simple check-in unnecessarily difficult. We expected much better organization and basic customer service. If arrangements are confirmed ahead of time, staff should be fully aware and prepared when guests arrive."

"Staff was friendly and breakfast was fresh. Bathroom in my room was in need of some renovation. The ceiling and wall around the shower was literally crumbling apart."

"Liked the updated room"

"Our stay at Pike’s Waterfront Lodge was truly unforgettable and made our first visit to Alaska extra special. The hotel is very clean, beautifully decorated, and full of Alaskan charm. The 24/7 airport shuttle was incredibly convenient, and having a restaurant next door plus nearby attractions like Pike’s Reindeer Park made our stay even better. What stood out most was the warmth of the people. Every staff member was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. We especially appreciated their honest recommendations as first-time visitors. One highlight was their Northern Lights call service. A special shoutout to Kay from the front desk—she called us, walked us to the riverside, and helped us witness the beautiful Aurora Borealis. It was a magical moment for our family. Breakfast each morning was a great way to start our day before heading out. What truly sets this hotel apart is their exceptional service. On checkout day 4/5/2026, I accidentally left my wallet and headphones in the room safe. Even after we passed TSA, the staff at Pike’s quickly contacted us and arranged for our items to be delivered by their shuttle service to the airport.—with the help of a kind employee from Twigs Alaskan Gifts—just in time before boarding. Huge thanks to the front desk and housekeeping team who worked and handled room 350 & 352 on 4/5/2026 Truly outstanding service—We are so grateful! Truly the Best and Friendliest Hotel in Fairbanks, THANK YOU SO MUCH, We appreciate you all & We’ll be back! "
