Seeing some of the other reviews, there appears to be some very mixed opinions about this hotel. We loved it. Stayed 3 nights, all on the rivers edge. Upon arrival, our room happened to be right next to some loud party people with a nice large bottle of whiskey on the patio. We wanted nothing to with this and were... more

We stayed here one night & for the most part enjoyed our stay. Cons: 1. We booked and were charged for a river front cabin... though our cabin was on the water it was a duplex with a shared patio and neither the patio door nor window faced the river. We had to insist that the charge for the 'river... more

This place really wasn't what we expected based on the information provided by the travel agency. The exterior of the cottages and landscaping is lovely but the inside of the cottages is outdated and the bathroom is terribly small. The cottages were clean and the staff was friendly . There is no baggage assistance. The shuttle was waiting for us... more

We stayed at the Rivers Edge Resort in Fairbanks as part of a Princess cruise tour. We were disappointed at first that we weren't going to be staying at the Fairbanks Princess Riverside, but we were charmed by the cute and cozy individual cottages that were spread out over the property and along the Chena River. Each cottage had two... more

Do not stay at this cottage. It is far away from the city center and they do not really provide free shuttle when you need it. They promised internet access but it was not working. The cottage is by the Chena river and it was noisy. The bus driver complained a lot. I have the worse experience in dining in... more

Just returned from a Princess Cruisetour that included a overnite stay at Fairbanks with a riverboat ride in the morning. We were originally scheduled to stay at the Fairbanks Princess Lodge but were notified that we were being switched to the Rivers Edge Resort. This resort in basically a bunch of cabins stuck in the middle of no where. The... more

We were lucky enough to get one of the cottages right on the river where I sat outside on our patio reading until midnight...the Land of the Midnight Sun, you know. Each unit had a BEAUTIFUL hanging basket of flowers at the front entrance. The rooms were quiet, comfortable and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They were... more

We stayed 2 nights prior to our flight out of Fairbanks. We had a connecting cottage that is intended for families wanting a connecting room. We could hear almost everyting the other couple were doing in their room as they probably did us too. The room was clean and well taken care of. The girl (don't remember her name) at... more

We stayed here on two occasions (first and last night) during our recent trip to Alaska. When we first arrived at the airport, we called the hotel and requested a pick-up, and were told that the shuttle driver was busy on a run and that it might be easier if we took a cab and asked for a receipt. At... more
