We stayed in this hotel for a few nights in February. Our room was big, warm, and had all the basic amenities. It was clean and comfortable, which is really all we were hoping for. I really enjoyed the free wireless connection, which I had no problems accessing. The hotel is centrally located downtown. Just a few minutes walk to... more

Three of us stayed in a large room with two queens in late July, 2009. This hotel offers very basic, clean rooms. We’ve stayed at this hotel several times over the past 30 years and the recent renovation of the rooms is a very nice improvement. Our favorite thing about this hotel is the view of the Yukon River flowing... more

Initial impressions weren't so good - I was booked in here as part of a tour (no choice of accommodation) and on arrival at 9pm found the restaurant was only open for breakfast (like everywhere else in Whitehorse in late September they seem to be gradually closing up for the winter), room a bit quirky (drawers which fall out when... more

The Riverview Hotel looks a bit old and weathered from the outside but our room was spacious and clean although the bed not the most comfortable. We had a room with view of the Yukon River across the street. There was a laundromat in the hotel, internet access for a one-off $5 log-on payment and the staff were most helpful... more

The Riverview Inn is conveniently located near the center of Whitehorse. It's not new, but it has been updated and the management seems to be trying to keep it viable. Despite the name, there's no river in view of the hotel (unless we just happened to be there during a dry spell). Actually, there's not much in the immediate vicinity... more

The Riverview is fine, nothing fancy, no frills. Located close to downtown, so you are within an easy walk of many good dining options. Staff was helpful. Rooms are OK. Clean, average size, not too much traffic noise, although quite a few obnoxious drunks coming and going from a couple of nearby bars when you walk from the hotel toward... more

We were a little apprehensive when we first arrived because the property definitely needs a thorough paint job on the outside. However, it appears that the owners have invested first in the inside, which is how it should be. The lobby is welcoming and, more importantly, the rooms are large and nicely renovated. The beds are very comfortable and the... more

Not much to write here as the hotel was pretty average in all senses of the word. The room was ok, the view was ok, the staff was ok. Nothing exception. The location was fine - right in the heart of town. Nothing about the hotel (or Whitehorse for that matter) struck me as a must. Our one really positive... more

River View Hotel is in a very good location right downtown and across the street fron the Yukon River. The German, French and English. speaking staff are very helpful. The rooms are nothing fancy, but are clean and comfortable. The restaurant was named the 7th best for vegetarian food in Canada, but it caters to meat eaters too. There is... more
