Top Tanaina Hotel Reviews

Eagle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved my suite with a view!"

The Pioneer Motel

10/10 Excellent

"A cute motel in the center of town, I’d recommend to travellers! My unit was well equipped, warm and cosy and the bed was super comfortable. The little craft shower products were a nice touch and the woman on reception was lovely. A 10 minute easy walk to coffee shops and a great base for Palmer! Thank you to the hotel team"

Best Western Lake Lucille Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for two nights in August. Here are the pros and cons. Pros. Very clean, comfortable beds, helpful staff, quiet location (some of the guests not so much). Free coffee/hot chocolate is available and you can buy bottled water on site. Location is beautiful. Nice spacious showers (no bath). Chop House restaurant was excellent but probably the most expensive restaurant in Alaska that I've ever been to (and I live here)! Breakfast was also ok, had hot items like eggs and sausages, a cereal selection, fresh fruit, toast, muffins, MYO waffles, juice, coffee and some snacks like granola bars. Cons. No air conditioning so the room was like a sauna! Hotel provides fans and you can open the window, but that exposes you to the noise of the parking lot and noisy non-hotel guests who are eating at the restaurant, which is not ideal. We were not aware that we would need a reservation to eat in the on-site restaurant, so after a 7 hour drive to get there, and starving, we had to wait over 30 minutes for a table to become available. No big deal, but we could have been made to wait longer, or worse, not been able to get a table at all. The room rate doubles during State Fair time."

Alaska's Lake Lucille B&B

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful spot with a dock on which you could sit in comfortable chairs and enjoy the lake view. The home cooked breakfast was delicious and the food was plentiful. Coffee was superior and the host was welcoming and friendly. This is a super great bargain for the area besides being in a beautiful spot. Excellent choice!"

Windbreak Hotel

8/10 Good

"What was good about the property was the price for the night. There are no ice vending machines or refrigerator. Ice can be gotten in the lounge but there is no way to keep things refrigerated unless you bring a cooler. Room is clean.Bathroom has no venting for after showering. There is a heater with a fan in the bathroom that helps. For the price it is very reasonable lodging. Staff were very helpful in accomadating our needs."
