The staff were very accommodating and very friendly. The girl at the front desk went out of her way to upgrade my room after some items in the room did not work properly. She was very apologetic and helpful in every way.
Rooms are very nice. Beds very comfortable.
Would recommend.

This is the best hotel to stay in Whitehorse even though it isn’t cheap. It is clean, quiet and at the end of the main strip so it’s close to the shops, restaurants and river. There is also a shuttle bus to and from the airport which is great.
Make sure to visit “La Cara” a Mexican restaurant, “Burnt Toast” for breakfast/brunch and “Baked” for excellent coffee and baked goods.

Truly excellent and restful. Made my reservation via expedia, and because they didn't have any other pet room available, they put me in a two bedroom apartment at less cost. Additionally, staff were more than helpful, very nice stay here, thanks!

The place was o.k. The maids did not seem in any rush to make up the rooms. Overall I did like the hotel and it was clean and safe.
