Not for a business traveler. No refrigerator or microwave in room. Entire facility centered around their tours and tourists. Tv selection and quality is the same as it was in 1980. Staff was nice. Room was clean.

The property is beautiful, after a long day of traveling the bed was so comfortable :) we would definitely stay here again and recommend it to our friends. The only negative was the food at the bar was horrible but the buffet breakfast in the morning was great !

Property was great. Room was great, restaurant inside was great (wish it offered more varieties to choose from, though), the hotel has a coffee shop inside much like Starbucks, has a souvenir shop that sells more than you probably wish for. All-in-all I would recommend this hotel. The only thing I was not thrilled about was the remote area it was in, away from Fairbanks downtown, but was perfect for walking around and reach other restaurants in the area. Also safe.

Boring and old. Nothing worth noting. Young, immature staff with tattoos and piercings everywhere. Room smelled of mold. Food bland and overpriced.

Close to the airport but too far out of town to enjoy Fairbanks without a vehicle. The shuttle service only takes you to 3 spots. The dining is VERY expensive here and thee are not other choices outside the hotel. Even Uber took over an hour to bring a meal to us and did not provide transportation into the city.

We pd for an extra night as we had a late night flight. We had DO NOT DISTURB on door. 8:00am housekeeping knocking on door, what time r you checking out. I said we pd for an extra night, late flight. He says oh and leaves. No apologies for waking us up. We wanted to sleep in as we had a late night flight. Princess said have luggage out at 11am for transfer to airport, had it out at 10:30am. 12pm still there, front desk says they overlooked you, you will have to take it yourself. We r 2 seniors with medical issues. Didn’t matter. 3pm we go for walk, come back and we r locked out of room. Front desk, no explanation gives us new key cards. I mention the luggage fiasco, she says it’s on shore excursions and not the front desk. A guy shows up and says he will talk to supervisor about the luggage and will come back. He never came back. We push our luggage down 2 long halls, elevator and finally get to the lodge. Same guy sees us and says I can load it on the shuttle for you. By this time we already brought it all the way there except for the 10ft out the lodge door. We said forget it. Horrible, horrible customer service. Played the blame game on the luggage. We all the shuttles running to the airport all day long, they should have made it right instead of having 2 seniors pushing it so far with medical issues to boot. We regret paying the extra night as they were banging on the door at 8am waking us up anyway.

I checked in and was given a room that had just started to be cleaned and I had to wait for the room to be cleaned before I could go in - the housekeepers were very nice and apologetic - must have been a mix up at the front desk. But then once I was in my room, my room was entered by someone - I’m not sure who-they ran away quickly once they knew the room was occupied. The following day; I got a knock on my door at 8am asking if I was still in the room when checkout was at 11am.

That no one had any info about their shuttle service. N body seemed to know. I’d of muddled my flight out. Tours rule. I’m an Alaskan resident and any hotel has made my life much harder due to pure greed . I am 78 I was told Princess Riverview HAD a shuttle to airport. Then the day I drove up to Fbks to store my car. No way to even get TO you and once there. Nope no shuttle. Then got redirected to yes there is. But the desk and lobby had no idea. Got a few hrs sleep. Ate. But had I not kept walking outside and inside I never would have seen this huge empty bus and a 20 yr old who had no idea what to do just in this empty bus. Nice kid took me to airport. Shuttle to 2 am flight is the ONLY reason I need a room at all.
