    I am planning my third stay at 7 Gables. It's conveniently located between the airport and the university, not to mention that it is economical and restful.

    We had a very nice large room with a great bathroom. The room and bathroom was tastefully decorated and very clean. The breakfast was very tasty, though it was more of a continental style where we made our own waffles or had cereal, along with a quiche and muffins that they had made.


    Enjoyed so much the 1st time, returned the next year too!

    I first stayed here in March 07 for 8 days. It was the perferct home base for a Fairbanks vacation for the northern lights, ONAC dog races and the Int'l Ice Art Championships. The following year I returned and had a friend and her 16 yr old son along, for a week. We had separate rooms and it was great . . . again! Outstanding value, spacious accommodations, great world-class breakfasts. (She will even bag up a "to go" breakfast if you have an early morning tour or other activity.)

    My husband and I visited AK and I did all the reservation and tours, etc. on my own via computer. It always gives me an uneasy feeling about booking overnight accommodations...we could not have been happier with the 7 Gables- good location, clean rooms, fantastic breakfast, and great value.


    Great value for the money.

    The 7 Gables Inn is located in a residential area of Fairbanks. You enter through an interesting two story solar room with lovely plants blooming even in September in Alaska. The rooms are comfortable and the bathrooms large, with Jacuzzi tubs. (Be careful getting in and out of these large tubs.) A guest kitchen is available for you to use at any time. Breakfasts are in another dining area. Leicha prepares a lovely breakfast that features a different country each day. We tasted France and Greece. We enjoyed the friendly host of the 7 Gables Inn and felt the Inn was an excellent value.
