This was a unique place to stay. Definitely historic and convenient. The room was nice. It is above a bar that has live music, so you just have to be down with that.
Such a cool spot. Bar and fun downstairs. A few rooms upstairs. A group of guys were jammin out when we got there - bluegrass band. Bartender checked us in and she was awesome and super helpful. Room and bathroom were very clean. Beds were super comfortable.
Bearing in mind that we stayed here 40 yrs. ago, it was lovely to return and celebrate our wedding anniversary. The hotel has weathered better than we have! And who wouldn't enjoy karaoke night with the locals? Excellent food; staff couldn't have been more gracious. Don't go looking for luxury. Go to build memories.
It was really cool staying in such a historic place. The only downside to my stay was a rather loud birthday party downstairs in the tavern but the staff provided ear plugs which I really appreciated. The staff could not have been more helpful- special shout out to the cleaning staff.
Really neat place! There are only a couple rooms, and the bathrooms are shared because the building is really old. Everything was clean and we really enjoyed it. It’s a little busier, and there is a bar directly below that sometimes has live music - so if that’s not your thing, don’t book here. My wife and I loved it!
The very best bar - how could a grizzly on the ceiling, a disco ball with hanging handles and a musk ox wearing pearls be a mistake? Super friendly staff that made you feel welcome and a local hangout. Seven lodging rooms upstairs (noisy bar downstairs - earplugs provided!) share 2 clean full bathrooms in the hall. In the heart of this small historic district, where everything is walkable. Best sit down breakfast in town, large portions and made to order. Lots of choices for lunch and dinner, with food trucks and scratch kitchens all around.
We enjoyed staying in such a clean, historic hotel. The queen size bed was firm and comfortable. Sharing two available bathrooms with showers was manageable because guests were cooperative. Check the concert schedule before you stay, though! Even with ear plugs provided, sleeping will be difficult when a band is playing downstairs until 1 am or later. But, the bar/dining room will be open for breakfast at 8 am in the morning with coffee!
It's a room above a bar so it comes with all that is expected. And a little pricey considering the shared bathroom. But honestly a great time. If a good old fashioned adventure is what you're after, this is the place to be. Close to everything donwtown. Just be aware, it is what it says on the tin....but the earplugs do help a LOT if you want to sleep before the bar closes.

This is a great place to stay if you don’t mind sharing the bathroom. The place is super clean and the people who run it are incredibly nice. Location is perfect! Right on the main road and heart of this little town.
The Fairview Inn is a historic hotel and bar in Talkeetna! Definitely worth spending a night at and getting a drink/listening to live music!
It is centrally located so extremely easy to walk to other shops, restaurants, bars, and the museum in town.
What an amazing place to stay. Check in was very easy and convenient. The room was very clean, beds were comfortable. The staff was helpful and very friendly.

Historic Property
This place was historic and fun. It was not fancy or modern. I slept well and enjoyed my stay.
They did a great job updating the rooms with comfortable beds! As long as you don’t mind the bar noise late it’s a perfect location and fun to stay at an old, historical hotel!
The Owner was outstanding - very gracious and service oriented. Excellent location - all of the staff were very hospitable - great dining options. Newly renovated - new air conditioning and heat pump was very efficient - would definitely stay at the Fairview Inh again

A quirky historical Inn complete with bar music until 2:00 AM and shared bathrooms. They did provide ear plugs. Bed was comfortable and right in the heart of Talkeetna.

stayed here a few nights. very cute local dive! room was clean and ear plugs were provided and worked well to block out the noise from the bar. owner was very nice. loved the overall vibes and was a great local experience!
A quaint place but is above a bar but that might it was karaoke and was nice to listen to. Rooms clean, bathrooms shared but clean. Food options from various food trucks were good. We would stay here again.
Fantastic lodging option and very affordable. The rooms are located above a very popular bar that does Karaoke night which is very fun and lively. Everytime I told people in the area I was staying at the Fairview Inn they would always ask me questions about the place because of its rich history. Be aware though that the rooms are quite small and there are shared bathrooms, but with two bathrooms you won’t have to wait long to use them and they’re cleaned every day. I highly recommend the Fairview Inn if you’re okay in a smaller space and just need a room for sleeping while enjoying what Alaska has to offer.
We had so much fun at Fairview Inn, it was a perfect night. Courtney and Tonya were the bartenders, they were awesome. We had drinks, we danced then stayed the night. The rooms were cute and clean. The owner is really nice too. We will definitely be staying there again!!!
Unique lodging option in hip Talkeetna— seven rooms, roadhouse style, with a must-see historic bar and music venue on the main floor below. The rooms are comfy and newly renovated. It’s an older building and the music carries, so this place isn’t for everyone— but if you want to be in the center of the action Fairview Inn can’t be beat!
The stay was great and just as expected! Very comfortable bed—no frills but I wasn’t looking for that. Loved being in the middle of Talkeetna with food and entertainment just steps away. Would suggest better privacy/light blocking curtains or roller shades for the windows though. Staff was very helpful.
Historic building with renewed rooms. There is a bar with live music downstair. It is not a problem for me, but, keep in mind. Check in and check out very easy. I recommend and gonna go back!
