As a previous resident of Whitehorse I booked this hotel when I returned on a business trip because I was familiar with its location. I deeply regretted this choice. I was given a room above the restaurant, which, as it turns out was undergoing renovations. Apparently the hotel owner did not want the renovations to be carried out during the... more

Here is the scoop on this place. I live in Alaska and have come here many times. It is OK. The rooms vary a lot from being very small to adequate. Or if you spend more money you can get something larger. The place is made of cinder block so they try to overcome that with decorations. So like if... more

the High Country is on the edge of Whitehorse's downtown area. We stayed in a very comfortable "presidential suite" which was decent value. The "Yukon Brewing Company" bar is on site and nearby is the excellent Sanchez Cantina mexican restaurant. more

It's a typical hotel; not super fancy, but the rooms are comfortable, clean, and spacious. And the fridge was definitely nice to have. Staff seemed pleasant, and aside from one of the washing machines not working, we had no problems. Definitely a pleasant stay! more

Our first impression was formed by the two small elevators, one being slow, and the other refusing to arrive. After that we used the stairs. Food in the restaurants was fine, and probably a better bet than trying to find reasonable value in the downtown area. Breakfast was a little slow, probably because of a staff changeover due to new... more

Arrived at the Highcountry Inn at 02.30am after travelling for almost 24 hours. The staff were very helpful, but over the next 2 weeks touring the Yukon and Alaska we found that everyone is so helpful and nice. (being English I'm naturally suspicious of people being nice...!!!!!) We stayed on our first and last night of our trip and found... more

Stayed at the High Country Inn (October 6-9, 2006) as our choice on an Air North special. The Hotel was clean and in a quiet part of town, not that Whitehorse is very big. We did have an extremely noisy room that was on the 4 floor over the restaurant/bar that has been developed out of a tent - yes,... more

Stayed at this hotel in July 2006. Given one of the kitchenette units, which was handy. Hotel could use a bit of upgrading but overall it was clean and comfortable. Location is right in downtown Whitehorse, and the hotel provides a shuttle to the airport. The restaurant is quite good, and the lobby is comfortable to hang out in. Staff... more

We stayed here in September 2005 because it is the approved hotel for the business I work for. Some of the rooms are nice; spacious and updated. Others, like the "standard room" we were in the first night are not so nice. The standard room was extremely small (think hostel), the bathroom did not have tub and the only window... more
