It always seems difficult to find pet-friendly places on the way to Alaska, but after several calls we found the Golden Bear allowed pets and had a vacancy. The rooms are older, but clean and we were happy. We learned our lesson on previous trips and always ask to look at the room before we get it. We were happy... More

We stayed here just one night before crossing the border into Canada and was thankful for a friendly greeting. A decent continental breakfast is served in a nice dining area. Would definitely stay here again.

The Golden Bear Motel family has worked together for over ten years to provide the best accommodations possible to every one of our guests. Although we find it deeply regrettable that this particular stay was less than enjoyable, it is a great comfort to us that for the thousands, literally thousands, of guests our small family operation has welcomed to...

Just checked in at the motel an hour ago and are now eating at the great Fast Eddy's restaurant. Like most things in Alaska, the town is older and reflects it but the friendliness and service is great. The motel upgraded our reservation of a room with two queen beds to on with two kings and a single (for five)... More

We stayed at the Golden Bear Motel on our way to Dawson City and on the way back from Haines Junction. Upon arrival in Tok we found out that the Taylor Highway was closed the next day. We had to call our hotel in Dawson to let them know we would arrive a day late. The very very friendly lady... More

In September, many hotels close or lay off staff. The Golden Bear was fully open and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The desk suggested restaurants and was very friendly. We really enjoyed our stay. Try the Grumpy Griz for breakfast.

I stayed here one rainy night in June while en route to Dawson City. The room in the back "new" building was very clean, albeit a bit worn around the edges, but no complaints. My bed was quite comfortable and I slept soundly. The area that night was quiet. The staff were all friendly and cheerful folks. I ate at... More

We stayed here with our dogs and the rooms were clean and basic. They were a bit worn around the edges but we may have just been in an older room with the dogs. Overall it is a clean friendly place to spend the night on your way north or south.
