Top College Hotel Reviews

Pike's Waterfront Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay!!"

Aspen Suites Hotel Fairbanks

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at the Aspen Suites in Fairbanks for 18 days while visiting our family and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The rooms were excellent and the kitchen in our room was just perfect. The front desk staff and house cleaning staff were always helpful and very pleasant. We look forward to returning to Aspen Suites on our next visit."

Aurora Villa

8/10 Good

"Overall the villa was quite nice! I didn’t love the drive up there since it wasn’t entirely paved and we had a trailer with us, but it was doable and worth it for me. The rooms were a little warmer than my liking but everything was well decorated and nicely cleaned. The walls are a little thin, but there weren’t too many guests when we stayed so it wasn’t an issue for us. The windows in both the room and the lobby were huge and perfect for viewing the scenery. Breakfast was fine and was what was advertised to us. I liked the do it yourself set up. I enjoyed this place and would definitely come back if I had the chance. My only caveat is that I wished there was an actual staff person at the villa for check in and questions. Seemed kinda sketchy to just be sending my card info to a random email/number."
