Across reviews, Talbot Arm Motel is described as a simple, dated but generally clean stop along the Alaska Highway, with consistently friendly, accommodating staff and the convenience of an on-site restaurant, store, and fuel in a very remote setting.
Rooms are basic and can be noisy, with inconsistent in-room amenities and reports of unreliable Wi-Fi and occasional maintenance issues. Most guests like the on-site dining, though breakfast can be slow and the 7 a.m. opening may feel late for early departures. Several guests also mention scenic views. Expect a no-frills, practical overnight stop.

Perfect stop for dinner and sleep. Nothing fancy but it was clean and comfortable. Great shower pressure. Check in is inside the little convenience store by the fuel pumps. Well priced for the tired traveler.

This property is in the middle of nowhere but the perfect mid point when driving from Haines or Skagway to the interior. The rooms aren’t fancy but facility is clean and they have a store, restaurant, gas, and lots of parking. We had a decent meal in the restaurant and enjoyed a peaceful night of sleep. We plan on staying there again on the way back home. The owner/manager was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed.

OK. First. Set realistic expectations for the middle of nowhere with a year round population of under 100. That said.... The good: This place was adequate for one night. We were in Room 1 (end room) with two beds, a table with two chairs, TV, mini fridge, sizeable dresser and plenty of room to spread out. We were able to park right next to our room to unload/load. Very convenient. The eyebrow raising observations: The shower was old and has rust stains which made cleanliness nearly impossible to see. So much so that we decided to skip a shower. (I have no doubt it was clean, just looked questionable.) One bed looked much newer than the other which had significant staining on the box spring. The window had a crack but didn't bother us. The restaurant has decent food and service is friendly. Note: We were told it's illegal to serve a hamburger anything other than well done. A well done burger can be tough. A well done Bison burger is tough. Lesson learned. Breakfast was really good. Overall dont skip this place if you're looking for a place to rest and refuel. It gets the job done.

Always our first night when driving out of Alaska. It isn't fancy, but it's always clean and comfortable. A little convenience store is next to the cafe and check-in for the motel.

The room was clean. It was convenient to have a restaurant and gas station on the same property. We had to wait a bit for the restaurant and gas station convenience store to open at 7am so we could grab coffee and breakfast snacks before leaving. I would definitely recommend to anyone passing through.

This hotel/restaurant/fuel stop/bar/convenience & souvenir store/RV park was an oasis on our AlCan Hiway journey! They are so well stocked with all your basic needs and the staff is always smiling and friendly. Food (we had supper and breakfast) was excellent. AlCan travelers are blessed to have a business like this at this location. Highly recommend if your travel timing matches this location for meals/fuel/lodging.

When I booked one room for 4 people I was told the rooms could not accomodate 4 persons. We then had to book two rooms at a hefty price. when we got there we paid for our rooms. When we to our rooms which were identical, there were two double beds, So that was a disapointment. then our cousins in the next identical room had a microwave and fridge, I was quite mad as we paid the same amount for the rooms. I will not give them a good reccomadaion. It is a shame as a Yukoner, I feel back for the tourist that are stuck to stay there. But there is no choice as it out in far country.

Dated, but in good repair. Clean and the mattress and pillows were in good condition. Restaurant is our 7-9, we came in at 8.45 and were still able to get some items that didn't need the grill. On the ground floor, the room above was about around midnight. The noise wouldn't have been so annoying earlier. Left the next morning around 7 so i can't answer for breakfast. Pretty decent considering it's the main fair in a community of 55 people.

Okay for what it is. A place in the middle of nowhere to crash for the night. Staff was friendly and had great service. Room was pretty rough. Not the cleanest. Walls are thin so you'll hear neighbors. Food was average but it was hot and quick. I'd stay here again for a one night thing if need be.

I've stayed here in 2012, 2023 and most recently last week (October 2025). Between 2012 and 2023, the price only changed $5 to $10. However, between 2023 and 2025, it has gone up $50 per night, a steep increase. While some cosmetic changes have been made to make it look more modern, the actual changes needed to command a $50 increase have not happened. The ceiling paint was peeling in the bathroom, and the toilet is leaking beneath the floor, causing disgusting colouration and looking in need of desperate repair. However, the staff were very friendly and the food is great. Definitely recommend the mozza sticks as an appetizer.

The staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. The restaurant had some fantastic food although the menu is limited but that can be expected being so remote. We will definitely stay here again!

On an evening that I actually needed WiFi access it was a serious disappointment. It takes a long time just to get a partial signal through an access page across 4 WiFi options, all with the same middling signal strength. And then be told the Internet can\'t be reached and briefly getting into my email. And then, I\'m told my data usage has been met and I\'m no longer eligible for access. My recommendation? Don\'t advertise "Free Wifi" when you cannot provide it.

When we to our rooms which were identical, there were two double beds, So that was a disapointment. then our cousins in the next identical room had a microwave and fridge, I was quite mad as we paid the same amount for the rooms. I will not give them a good reccomadaion. It is a shame as a Yukoner, I feel back for the tourist that are stuck to stay there. But there is no choice as it out in far country.

Big fan of this motel…drove the ALCAN from the lower 48 to Anchorage and this place is a one of the best. The price is very reasonable with comfortable rooms with great views. The staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. The restaurant had some fantastic food although the menu is limited but that can be expected being so remote. We will definitely stay here again!

The staff at the Talbot Arms are very friendly and accommodating. This is not a fancy establishment, but it is clean and well maintained. The location is very handy along the Alaska Highway. The restaurant has a nice variety and the food is tasty.

The Talbot Inn is a good middle point between Haines and the interior of Alaska. It is clean and has a nice staff and we enjoy the restaurant there.

It's really the only place in this area. Staff was great and it was a good place to lay our head for the night.

It’s kind of in the middle of nowhere, but it was a convenient place to stay while driving the Alaska Highway. It wasn’t super nice, but it worked. There’s also free coffee, but breakfast was a little expensive.

On-site dining earns broadly positive comments for solid, tasty meals. Downsides include occasional slow breakfast service, a 7 a.m. opening that can feel late, and a limited menu at times.

The staff was courteous and kind. Breakfast took a long time. We ordered at 7:20 a.m. and did not receive our food until 8:00. A.m.. probably best to not expect a quick meal at the same time as everyone else at 7:00. A.m..

I've stayed here in 2012, 2023 and most recently last week (October 2025). Between 2012 and 2023, the price only changed $5 to $10. However, between 2023 and 2025, it has gone up $50 per night, a steep increase. While some cosmetic changes have been made to make it look more modern, the actual changes needed to command a $50 increase have not happened. The ceiling paint was peeling in the bathroom, and the toilet is leaking beneath the floor, causing disgusting colouration and looking in need of desperate repair. However, the staff were very friendly and the food is great. Definitely recommend the mozza sticks as an appetizer.

OK. First. Set realistic expectations for the middle of nowhere with a year round population of under 100. That said.... The good: This place was adequate for one night. We were in Room 1 (end room) with two beds, a table with two chairs, TV, mini fridge, sizeable dresser and plenty of room to spread out. We were able to park right next to our room to unload/load. Very convenient. The eyebrow raising observations: The shower was old and has rust stains which made cleanliness nearly impossible to see. So much so that we decided to skip a shower. (I have no doubt it was clean, just looked questionable.) One bed looked much newer than the other which had significant staining on the box spring. The window had a crack but didn't bother us. The restaurant has decent food and service is friendly. Note: We were told it's illegal to serve a hamburger anything other than well done. A well done burger can be tough. A well done Bison burger is tough. Lesson learned. Breakfast was really good. Overall dont skip this place if you're looking for a place to rest and refuel. It gets the job done.

The room was clean. It was convenient to have a restaurant and gas station on the same property. We had to wait a bit for the restaurant and gas station convenience store to open at 7am so we could grab coffee and breakfast snacks before leaving. I would definitely recommend to anyone passing through.

It might be the saddest place we stayed in on our Al-Can trip. In fact, it might be the only choice on this particular stretch of highway. Has not been updated for decades. On the other hand, it does have everything you might need: motel, restaurant, gas, convenience store, and laundromat. The staff were certainly nice from check-in to servers at the restaurant. The bed was fine, and the shower was good. It is a basic “no frills” establishment.

This is a very old motel, with the basics, in a very remote location hundreds of miles from the next possible places to stay or stores. If you stay with the understanding your options (and those that live & work there) are limited in conveniences of a real town or city then you will be okay and it will add to the adventures of your journey on this frost heave riddled highway through a wild, open, vast & breath taking land.

A perfect resting spot after a long day on the road. The food choices in the restaurant were a nice touch. The staff, from the check in experience to the servers in the restaurant were very polite and friendly. It's an older motel but it was clean, so we have no complaints.
