Sven's Basecamp Hostel in Fairbanks has some of the coolest accommodation options--such as this treehouse, a tipi, cabins, wall tent glamping, etc. Sven also has a couple cute dogs and one teeny tiny husky puppy that everyone fought over to hold. Rent canoes here as well. Showers are costly (25 cents per minute!) but only because their water has to be brought in via truck so they try not to use too much too quickly. Wifi available.

Top Downtown Fairbanks Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn Fairbanks

8/10 Good

"The bed was extremely comfortable. Amazing pillows! The hotel itself is newer and clean. The area is quiet. We stayed during a cold snap, -40 overnight. Requiring our vehicle to be plugged in. 2 of our 3 nights there was a tour bus idling and blocking all the handicap spaces with plugs forcing us to park elsewhere which made it very challenging for us. We mentioned this to the front desk the first night and she stated she'd asked the bus to move, but the bus never moved. The second night the bus was right back in the same space. Other than that, the breakfast was decent. Staff was okay."
