The room was good and the loaction was perfect. The common spaces of the hotel feel a little dated, but I guess that could be the theme. The only complaint was being above the bar. I'd stay again, just request a different room.
Pros: The location of the hotel was perfect for exploring Whitehorse. Within walking distance of all the major attractions in town.
Cons: I was in town for work and the room I had was above the bar, you could hear the band until they stopped playing. Bring earplugs.

Pros: The staff was excellent and even though there was no free breakfast. The restaurant they have produced some very satisfying food and wasn't outragiously priced.
Cons: I didn't like the location. Because of the area I had to completely unload all of my cargo on the car and put it in storage in the hotel. I even spoke to local authorities and they were adamant that the area, after dark, had lots of unseemly characters.

Poor hotel and too expensive...
Pros: This property was most expensive on our entire trip to Canada and Alaska.
There was an argument at check-in as they had no note of our booking for breakfast, however they had to honour this as I produced the email from Booking.com.
We went out to dinner as the restaurant did not look interesting.
The breakfast was lousy, all fried with no choice.
We did not enjoy staying at this hotel, they were not very helpful and it was poor value for money.

Great location, noisy unless on...
Pros: The restaurant on site had very good food. Location was great.
Cons: There are no public areas to sit or have a drink with friends unless you go to bar. The room was very small and was extremely noisy from rooms above . Had to move 2nd night to 3rd floor but was challenging as was told that 3rd floor was only available to corporate guests. They did move us eventually. Also using booking.com seems to get you the worst room.

Awesome option for Whitehorse
Pros: This hotel is located on Main street and is very close to restaurants and shops. They also offer touristic options, although I did not use these this time.
Hotel pub/restaurant is a lot of fun, open until very late and has live music on Thursday evening!
