I've stayed here multiple times on business. On this recent stay, I had a room at end of hall on 2nd floor. At bottom of stairway is designated smoking area. The door is not key-card accessible - only a separate door to 1st floor. Consequently employees (and possibly guests, but I only saw employees) block open the door to 2nd... More

The Holiday Inn Express in Fairbanks has a terrific location, is new (so it's in very good shape), and the staff is, without fail, nice and welcoming and accommodating. We stayed here for a week when our son was involved in a week-long series of Nordic ski races in March 2013 and we found that the Holiday Express was just... More

I visited Fairbanks to see the Aurora Borealis, and I spent two nights at the Holiday Inn Express. I thought it was a great choice because it was clean, spacious and the price was reasonable. Also, the staff was very helpful. When I arrived earlier than I expected, they let me use the gym while my room was prepared. The... More

Stayed here for two nights and at first glance this Holiday Inn express is larger than the other HIEs I have stayed in, however there is still the same great service from the staff. My first night appeared to have a couple of school groups / ice hockey teams staying there and appeared quite rowdy when we checked in, however... More

My wife & I wanted a Jacuzzi Suite for our 8th anniversary celebration. We live in North Pole, just 14 mi south of Fairbanks. With all the winter activities going on it was hard to find one. Holiday Inn has only been in Fairbanks for about 5 years. My wife & I were both off this Friday so I was... More

Fairbanks in Early March...cold! However my room was HOT! I had to open the window to keep it cool! The AC wasn't working it would just pump out heat. Not a big deal, I liked the window open when I slept. The hotel has plugs for your car to keep the engine warm. Bed was standard, pillows are horrible (Don't... More

Stayed there early December, had a pretty good experience. Great and helpful front desk clerks, clean rooms, had a better free breakfast than most hotels I've stayed at. Unfortunately, did not have a weekly rate, in which I needed. But, overall, I would definitely stay here again.

I am not sure but it seems to me that these two hotels are sisters! Yet Holiday Inn Express is more outdated. Yes I did love the hot tub feature in our room which we never experience in Hampton Inn. The pool was dirty and I don't blame it to the housekeepers but to the people who stayed there, brought... More

The Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Fairbanks is located on the northeast side of Fairbanks, near the intersection of the Johansen Expressway and the Steese Highway. It's a great location for easy access to the main roads around Fairbanks. It's across from the shopping area that has a Sportsman's Warehouse (outdoor store), Barnes and Noble, and other stores. There... More
