I really enjoy lodging here. Rooms are cozy, staff is friendly and is a short walk to the AC store. Every time I’m in Dillingham I stay here.

Palace of Dillingham. Restaurant inside staffed by nice natives who patiently answer the same questions about the area from hordes of visiting fishermen while serving great food. Vending machine upstairs one of the few places to find 16 oz diet Pepsi bottles. Stock up before venturing out! Rooms are serviceable. They'll do!

Excellent place to stay with competitive prices. The restaurant there is better than other restaurants in Dillingham. Really great staff. They will look out for you, provide information about the community, and will see to your room being a pleasant experience. The rooms are great quality, especially considering the rooms are located so far from a metropolitan area. Prices are on the high side for lower 48 prices, but are not high compared to hotels outside of Anchorage and Fairbanks. The Bristol Inn is located near places to see in Dillingham, and is close to the waterfront of Bristol Bay. Most everything is in walking distance. I recommend this place.

I had a very pleasant stay here. I slept really well, the showers were hot, the place was quiet, staff helpful, and honestly the coffee I had from the in-room maker was maybe the best hotel room coffee I've ever had. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Dillingham.

The Bristol Inn restuarant was very good. Veronica, our waitress, had our orders all correct. The cook, Isaac, cooked everything very well. The price was high but typical for an Alaska village. It's a good place to stay and eat.
