I found the rooms to be very small. We were given a second floor room which looked out to the wall of the adjacent building. I booked for two nights, but cancelled one night because I felt claustrophobic. Front desk was not friendly. The write-up included cookies - never saw nor smelled a cookie. I was not with a cruise/package... more

Third rate hotel priced like a 4 star. Room is small, bathroon is very small. Stand-up shower that is difficult to turn around in and is dirty looking.. Old building that has superficial refurbishments. Will never stay here again. I've stayed in other hotels in Fairbanks and this is near the bottom for the price. more

Lots of things to do nearby, such as the Ice Museum and the displays at the visitor info centre. Very close is Big Daddy's BBQ & Banquet, good for an economical pub-style dinner. The hotel is pretty good for breakfast too. We also found the Northrim Bank ATM to be ding-free for Cdn. credit union cards. The hotel was especially... more

Stayed here one night as part of a Holland America CruiseTour. Charming "boutique" small hotel with gorgeous flowers gracing the public areas of the hotel. Contrary to other reviewers' comments about small rooms & bathrooms, ours was a comfortable size, comfortable beds, and very clean! Attractive location on the Chena riverfront-a pleasant walk to beautifully landscaped park area along the... more

Clean cozy hotel. Front desk very friendly. Hotel was nothing special - Furnishings are showing their age, no real services - but overall a clean safe cozy hotel close to downtown fairbanks. We had 2 queens which worked perfectly for 2 adults and 2 kids - also lots of floor & storage space. Bathroom was tiny but overall room was... more

We stayed one night at the Bridgewater on June 19, 2006. The room was quite small and difficult to manuever in, but it was clean and decently decorated. The bed was comfortable. The shower was extremely small, and my 6-foot-2 husband could barely wash himself in it. The breakfast buffet was excellent (eggs, meat, blintzes, biscuits & gravy, etc.) and... more

Very surprized with the hospitality and friendliness of the Bridgewater Hotel in Fairbanks. Greeted with homemade cookies and punch in lobby. Free internet service. Great value breakfast in morning. Everyone attentive, happy and informative there. For a structure as old as this one, it is well maintained and clean. Real homey attmosphere. It is non-smoking hotel but just outside lobby... more

My husband and I just spent 9 days at the Bridgewater Hotel. The location is excellent. There are several fine restaurants located within walking distance. The Chena River can be viewed from the hotel. The Alaska Railroad is minutes away. The service was great. They have a fine breakfast buffet. We recommend this hotel. more
