Marnie and Lambert run a top notch B&B way up in Fairbanks! FIrst, Lambert was VERY accommodating of our last minute plans and set it up so we could come in very last minute AND arrive past midnight! Our late arrival was seamless and we were able to get the keys and head straight to our rooms. We were two couples, and they set us up in two rooms that faced each other upstairs in the second house. One of the most important things I was looking for when I was looking for a hotel was a Wi-Fi connection. They had one and it worked perfectly. It was nice to be able to get online while I was in bed and it was snowing outside. The rooms were very cozy and had everything we needed to be comfortable. It's a lot of fun to go down into the main house for a wonderful home cooked breakfast each morning and Marnie and Lambert (the owners) are great company. Marnie makes great meals and Lambert is very enthusiastic about Fairbanks and has great suggestions about many things to do. We went to Fairbanks specifically to see the Aurora Borealis and it did not disappoint. Lambert suggested some excellent viewing spots and we sure received a spectacular show. You can walk right into town from the B&B and we were able to go to some nice restaurants and walk around town right out the door. You should definitely get a car though, if you wish to drive up to the Chena Hotsprings, go to Fox (where the excellent Silver Gulch microbrewery and restaurant is located, which has excellent food and beer), and to go to various semi-remote (but pretty close by) spots to view the Aurora. You also should have one to drive out to see the Alaska Pipeline, and to the university to see the excellent museum. Everything Lambert suggested to us was definitely worthwhile seeing. We had an excellent experience at the Minnie Street B&B and would not hesitate to both suggest it to others and return there again ourselves. - Gary ;-)

I travel to Fairbanks between 2 and 3 times a year and at least one is an extended stay. I always choose Minnie St B&B for their charming owners, warm atmosphere, and very comfortable accommodations. They cater the breakfast to your schedule and are flexible as far as your diet. During this past stay, they made some very hearty and delicious soups/stews with breads during the evening, which was perfect for taking off the winter breakup chill. The owners are very personable and you'll be entertained by their many life experience stories. I've enjoyed meeting the other guests and have made several business as well as social contacts. I would highly refer Minnie Street B&B to anyone who desires something more than a hotel can offer without added expense.

We make an annual trek to Fairbanks each winter and we always stay at Minnie Street B&B. Marnie and Lambert, and now Vickie and Jim as well, are incredible hosts. Absolutely spotless rooms, great beds, and a tasty and filling breakfast each and every day. We can always count on these great hosts to come up with yet another activity or "something to do" that we haven't done before...and we live in Alaska! Their newest rooms in the building they just ocmpleted last year are incredible. Ask for the premium suite with the steam shower and jacuzzi tub. Bring lots of bubble bath and a bottle of champagne. Thier InnSpa package are also great and a nice treat after a long day of sightseeing or snowmobiling!

On my trip to Alaska, I spent one night in Fairbanks. Based on TripAdvisor reviews, I selected the Minnie Street Bed and Breakfast. I’d highly recommend it to anyone else. The place is very clean, spacious and nice. I stayed in a room that shared a bathroom—though there was no one in the other room that would have shared, so it was all mine and very close to my room. My room had everything you’d expect from a regular hotel room, including cable TV and free wireless Internet Access—only it felt like home. And the bed was perfect, with a mattress that wasn’t too hard or too soft. It was just right.

The owners were away but the assistant manager went above and beyond the call for me. I had to drive to Anchorage the next day and wanted to leave early. Vicky got up extra early and made sure that I had a complete delicious breakfast ready for me. She was a very gracious host and if I ever go back to Fairbanks, I’d certainly stay there again. Big thumbs up for the Minnie Street Bed and Breakfast.
