Genuine Hospitality as Warm as the Midnight Sun

Alaska’s genuine northern hospitality can be found at the Bridgewater Hotel, a unique boutique-style hotel with the service and amenities of a traditional hotel. Summer accommodations begin mid-May, at our cozy 94-room hotel, located in the heart of downtown Fairbanks, surrounded by colorful hanging baskets and award winning flower gardens.

An attentive staff and the friendliest general manager you’re likely to meet will ensure your stay is unforgettable. You’ll discover a blend of Alaskan charm, affordable accommodations and be humored by the fabulous stories of Fairbanks’ river front history.

From a hearty Alaskan breakfast buffet of reindeer sausage and blueberry buttermilk pancakes to your requested wake-up call to view the magnificent Northern Lights in late summer, you’re not likely to forget the experience of downtown Fairbanks.

The hotel overlooks the Chena River where you can watch canoes and kayaks meander down the slow moving water. Or enjoy the outdoor flower gardens and sitting area while relaxing in the warmth of the midnight sun. The quaint lobby is decorated with Alaskan art and a gift kiosk displays Native arts and crafts.

Bridgewater Hotel is within easy walking distance of the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center and numerous restaurants, Alaskan gift shops, and museums.
