I always like to stay here. Usually, hotels near airports are very basic and beige. Pike’s is not. The staff is always friendly, my little dog is treated well, and I just like it there.
United Statesproperty has character. very impressive, clean and nice.
MalaysiaThe place itself. It's beautiful and feels like home. Breakfast was also good (you can bring it to your room). I loved the souvenir shop, the aurora viewing area as well as the free ice cream. Room was spacious. Near the airport (with free shuttle). One of the pick up area of tour companies. Very responsive and helpful.
PhilippinesI booked for one night and loved it so much that I stayed a second night. From the moment you walk through the front doors of Pikes Waterfront Lodge it is so warm and inviting. I throughly enjoyed wandering through the main lobby and halls taking in all of the artwork. The the wildlife mounts also captivated my Service Dog Atlas. And we haven't even gotten to the room yet. My room was 101 right next to the lobby. I loved the decor in the room as well. My bed was a welcome pleasure as Well. Very comfortable and so were my pillows. I had a cute little balcony over looking the firepit area off of the banquet room. Sadly the Aurora Experience was under construction. But that just means I have to return in February.
United StatesGreat location with good facilities, breakfast great too

United StatesPikes Waterfront Lodge represents a living history of the area and a vibrant depiction of a specific way of life. I loved our stay here, the common areas, the outdoor patios, the excellent gym and steam room, the comfy bed all added to our adventures in Fairbanks Alaska. The food at the adjacent restaurant was also great!
