Set on the banks of the Chena
River, the 325-room Fairbanks
Princess Riverside Lodge boasts
all the atmosphere of a wilderness
lodge, yet it’s also one
of the city’s most luxurious
properties. It’s also conveniently
located, close to the airport and
the shops and restaurants of downtown.
Take a stroll through the gardens
here, along a walking path past
flowers and a babbling brook. And
enjoy the view from the rooms:
many of them have views of the
river, or you can sit out on the
deck, which stretches to the water’s
edge. It’s the perfect place
to enjoy a snack as the sun goes
down.
ome say Fairbanks is the
beginning of real Alaska, a Gold
Rush town surrounded by gorgeous
scenery and endless tundra. But
the Fairbanks Princess is hardly
an old-time hotel: this lodge boasts
all the service and luxury of the
Princess name, with lots of amenities.
For those who need to stay connected,
there’s a business center,
along with free wireless internet access
throughout the hotel.
Work out in the fitness center
or relax in the steam room.
You won’t lack for things
to do while staying at the Fairbanks
Princess Lodge. Get advice on
activities from the tour desk,
or book an excursion: explore
an old mining town or take a
riverboat cruise.
When it’s time to dine,
the Edgewater, overlooking the
Chena River, serves delicious
buffets at breakfast and lunch,
and in the evening becomes one
of the most elegant restaurants
in Fairbanks. You’ll find
Alaskan seafood, delicious tenderloin,
and a selection of 40 wines to
complement the cuisine. You can
enjoy a more casual meal at Trackers
Restaurant and Lounge, or just
wind down the day with a drink
by the fireplace.
