This place was on my list of hotels to check out because of the price. At first blush it appeared a little too shabby. After checking out the other hotels on my list and finding them either booked or very over priced, we went back. We asked to see a room and were allowed to look at one on the... More

A good value little motel, run by a lovely family. Room was clean, nice bathroom and had a microwave and fridge which was a huge bonus for us. It is kind of out on it's own and the nearest neighbour is the Lonely Lady Saloon featuring showgirls nightly (which made me laugh) but you couldn't hear any noise from it.... More

A basic, old-fashioned motel, managed by a very kind family. Very good value, Alaska standards (less than 100$). In summer, take a room in the Eastern side – the Western side is too hot the afternoon. Consider taking the 2 beds rooms – for few more bucks they are much bigger than the regular room with a separated sitting and... More

Golden North, when you need a nice clean place to crash, and not break the bank this is your spot. I stayed here in January when it was -50 and my truck froze up! It was pluged in but my battery blanket craped out and my battery froze. At the front desk they had a battery booster and charger for... More

I chose the Golden North Motel since it is in close proximity to the Fred Meyer store and wasn't sure if I was going to rent a car or not and may have needed to use bus service and since you can wait for the bus inside at Fred Meyer in the cold winter it is a plus. I ended... More

The three Baers run this family owned hotel. "Momma Baer" and her two adult sons graciously greet new arrivals and do an exceptional job to accommodate individual needs. While enjoying refreshments in the artistically cozy lobby it soon becomes evident why many of are returnees to this very clean, attractive and especially friendly place. The Baers are long time Alaskans... More

Great little place, a little off the beaten path, but the rooms are clean and comfortable. The price is right too. The staff is very friendly and long time residents of Fairbanks, so ask them questions!! They will tell you about cool things to do.

nothing special. Big fans,very big, but in Alaska you don't need artificial wind so...clean inside but dirty outside the room. Closed to a night club. Worst place in 2 weeks in Alaska

I ended up at the Golden North by accident when another booking fell through. Luckily they had a room available and it was under $100 so I was pleased with that. The motel is quite near what looks like a strip club or girly bar so as a single woman I felt a little weird walking when it got dark... More
