The Yukon’s capital city, Whitehorse, welcomes a striking new addition with the opening of Hyatt Place Whitehorse, the brand’s first property in Canada’s North and only the second purpose-built hotel to open in Whitehorse in more than 50 years. Whitehorse is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, culture vultures, culinary aficionados and history buffs. Known as the ‘Wilderness City’, Whitehorse is the hub of the Yukon where exciting outdoors meets great cuisine, live theatre, amazing wildlife, and the world-famous gold rush history.
Developed by majority First Nations owned Northern Vision Development Limited Partnership (NVD), the $50 million hotel combines the Hyatt Place brand’s signature comfort and convenience with a strong sense of place and will create 40 jobs in the area. From locally inspired dining to interiors enriched with Indigenous art, every detail has been designed to connect guests with the cultural heritage, landscapes and community of Whitehorse and the Yukon.
A downtown address with mountain views
Located in the heart of downtown Whitehorse and minutes from Erik Nielsen Whitehorse International Airport, Hyatt Place Whitehorse puts guests within steps of Main Street’s cafés and shops, the Yukon River waterfront and cultural landmarks such as the MacBride Museum of Yukon History. Oversized windows in the 115 guest rooms frame sweeping views of the city’s surrounding mountains, a constant reminder that the wilderness is never far away.
Celebrating Yukon heritage
Hyatt Place Whitehorse is the first hotel in the city to fully integrate Yukon First Nations culture into its design. Carvings and artwork created by Indigenous artists are showcased throughout the property, honouring the region’s heritage and reflecting the ownership and vision of NVD.
