Great location to overnight before either getting into Fairbanks for the day from Anchorage. It had a musty smell and is very old school but definitely packs a lot of value in terms of water pressure in the shower, everything works, breakfast was served in their own way but very efficient! Except fir the 'musty' smell when entering the reception...nothing but good to say about this place ..exceptional wifi..

This place was under rated. Staff are exceptional. Great breakfast provided, hard boil egg, fruit, choboni yogurt, breakfast bar. Very clean rooms. Convenient to Denali NP. Healy and Denali NP are predominantly closed down from Sept to May so bring your own food. Refrigerator is provided in room.

Nice little place! It’s in a convenient location. There is a grocery store with a liquor department nearby. Plus only 15 mins from Denali. This place isn’t fancy, but it’s comfortable.

Fabian at front desk was very helpful amd patient. I liked the location and property but I gave 3 star for 2 reasons: I believe there was a problem with washbasin. Water was not goijg through as it was supposed to. Second, I had problems with internet. There was no internet at the property. I had problems connecting with family as my phone did not have reception either.

Only reason it’s not a 5 star rating is the smell in the lobby/hallways. Not sure if it was new carpet. New paint. New something but it had a heavy chemical smell. Otherwise large rooms. Keurig coffee maker. Continental breakfast left in your fridge (yogurt apple. Nutri grain bar. Hard boiled egg. Juice box). It’s not a fancy place but for Healy I was happy with it

We stayed at Aurora for one night - a few hours. We checked in after 2.30 am and left the property at 8.30 am. The room was big enough for three people to fit in comfortably for one night. Beds were clean and bathroom was clean (although the washbasin area not having a door was a bit of an inconvenience since we were a couple and a friend sharing). The reception desk was friendly and had kept a cold breakfast basket for us in the room fridge (which unfortunately we couldn’t eat since we were short of time). Room was well heated. Parking was abundant. Overall, ideal for a night or two while exploring Denali National park.

An egg, a candy bar and a small juice box put in the fridge doesn’t count for a breakfast. It’s just snacks. This hotel really shouldn’t advertise it has free breakfast.

We visited Alaska at the end of the high-season and room costs were high. The Aurora Denali Lodge came closest to being worth the price. Well maintained, quiet, good staff. My wife and I were very happy staying there.
