I did not stay at the hotel, I have been to the rooms. but I travelled to Fairbanks frequently for work. When I got out of the grind i drove directly to the hot springs. Winter or summer. The Ice Museum and the ammeneties are the greatest. more

Great 2 nights 3 days @ this year round resort. Good staff, engaged & interesting owner and fantastic location. Tho' the "northern lights" were shy we had a great time. The HOT springs were fantastic and the hydroponically grown tomatoes delicious. more

The Signature room felt more like a dorm room. The bed was terribly hard. The small, little bathroom with a toilet and shower should be a closet. Sink is outside right next to the entrance door, ugh. Noisy, no fridge or microwave... way overpriced even with an Ak resident discount. My second stay here was far worse than my 1st... more

Great day trip out of Fairbanks. Rented a swim suit and towel and took a dip in the very warm to hot water. Restaurant serves good food and beer - a bit pricey, but good. more

Firstly I'd like to start with the positive: we were exceptionally lucky and got to see the Northern Lights two consecutive nights while staying at the Chena Hot Springs. They have the wonderful service of providing wake-up calls when the Lights appear. There are a lot of activities to do during the day, horse riding, ATV tours, mountain bike rentals,... more

We traveled to Chena Hot Springs Resort on a day-trip while staying in Fairbanks. We had read about the resort being powered by geothermal energy, and wanted to check it out. It IS impressive, to say the least. They were in the process of drilling a new geothermal well, so there was a bit of a mess at the entrance... more

We live in Anchorage and wanted to finally try the Chena Hot Springs. The drive from Fairbanks was an hour on the newly resurfaced road, like being in a national park, many pull outs, once at the Chena, we chose the newer room, in the Moose Lodge area for $189 a night plus tax for 2 new double beds, tv... more

I hate driving, but I was glad I made the long trip from Wasilla to Chena Hotsprings. The road out to the Hotspring was very good although we were told there would be a good deal of construction, the delays were minimal. Once there, our 8 family members checked into our suites. We had 2 of the suites, each with... more

I expected the worst because of so many bad reviews on here. Thankfully, the resort was not as bad as I thought it would be. We stayed in a Signature Room and found it to be an average hotel room. The thermostat did not work and the room was hot! I tried to open the windows, but they were locked.... more

I took my sister and a group of friends out to Chena for a bridal shower party. The cheapest thing on the menu was a salad at $14 and it was seriously just a salad, nothing great. The pool attendant said he had no dry towels, he would bring them out, never did. The resident discount for the rooms was... more
