Really special, unique place to stay. If you're looking to drink and dance all night, and then go upstairs to your own bed after - this will be the perfect spot for you. I was tired (otherwise would have normally danced) so went to bed right away. If there's live music it will shake your whole room BUT the packaged earplugs they provide are incredibly helpful. I fell asleep pretty quickly, and the band was playing for hours after I went to sleep and I didn't wake up till morning. I heard other lodgers say the same in the hallway the next day. Honestly this is a very unique and fun place and area, so it's totally worth it to stay here. Just good to know that caveat. Solo female traveler and I felt completely safe.

It's a 100 year old pub. Room was small and you hear a lot of noise from the pub downstairs. Luckily I was by myself, too small a room for 2 people.

It’s so charming and right in the heart of town. Built in 1923, it’s small and old but really cool. It is over the tavern and you can hear the noise. No band tonight though. Ear plugs are provided. You share the two bathrooms amongst the 6 or 7 rooms but we haven’t had a problem with that. We would definitely come here again.
View from our room of one side of the quaint town.

Historic Inn

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.

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.

Just wonderful. Really comfortable bed (which is what you want if you're doing a lot of hiking). Historical building, with the oldest bathroom in Talkeetna (with a plaque to memorialize it). Check in at the bar downstairs, a great place to meet the locals (and their good looking dogs), on site restaurant. Note: there is no elevator, you have to bring your bags up the steep flight of stairs yourself. Loved it, would definitely stay again.

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.

We enjoyed our stay so much. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean. It was nothing fancy, and we had to share a bathroom, but we had no problems. It was very loud at night with the bar underneath. The people made this experience great for us. We are from Georgia and came off season. We were watching the Falcons, and the locals joined in and cheered for our team! We really loved talking to the people of Talkeetna. They made it very special for us. I can’t wait to go back and stay in the same place!
