After travelling for hours on two separate flights just to get to Whitehorse I just wanted some comfortable place to lay my head. The Skky hotel was a pleasant surprise. My room was very clean with a very comfortable bed and a good sized bathroom. I had wifi access and cable tv. The staff was very friendly and checking in... More

They accommodated my morning arrival by letting me check in early, offered me a discounted rate without me even asking, and then upgraded me to a better class of room. When there was a little noise from repairs being done in an adjacent room, I barely mentioned it to the maid and they instantly stopped. Hotel is very conveniently located... More

We stayed twice during our trip - the first stay was two nights (mid March). People at reception and housekeeping were very friendly. The room was nice and quiet. The beds are excellent. Only the bathroom was so small that you could hardly move. Overhead the toilet seat they had placed an iron rack for the towels, so opening the... More

Returned to Whitehorse after a 41 year time gap for a family celebration of life get-together. After checking out the hotels online came across the Skky hotel and it looked great. Surprise was that the local Skky management got my wife and myself a great room (best suite) when they found out the return visit story. Not only were they... More

Staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast had unfortunately nothing for gluten intolerant guests, I had to buy my own yoghurt, nuts and bananas. Room was quiet although it is very close to the airport.

Stayed here for 3 days. The hotel is an older building that has been extensively updated, and the room furnishings and decor are very pleasant, modern, and up to date. The restaurant is run by a third party (not the hotel), it is excellent - very good food and first class service. It's not cheap, though - $100 for dinner... More
