Where is Days Inn Whitehorse located?
Days Inn Whitehorse is in Downtown Whitehorse, Yukon (Whitehorse, Canada), close to central Downtown Whitehorse.
How much does Days Inn Whitehorse cost per night?
Prices are set live by the hotel — check the booking page for a real rate for your dates.
What’s the best area to stay in Whitehorse?
Downtown Whitehorse is the best area for a first visit, because you can walk to Main Street, the Yukon River waterfront, the SS Klondike and most tour pickups. Riverdale, just across the Robert Campbell Bridge, is quieter and about 15–20% cheaper for the same standard of room. Porter Creek, 7 km north on the Alaska Highway, is where the cheapest motels sit but you will need a car. Skip the airport strip unless you have a very early flight — it is a 5 km taxi from downtown and has no walkable surroundings.
What is the cheapest month to visit the Yukon?
October is typically the cheapest month, with Whitehorse hotel rates 40–50% below their July peak and rental cars readily available. November is similarly low but colder and darker, with only about 7 hours of daylight by month’s end. April is another quiet window before the summer season begins in mid-May. Avoid late December to March if price is the priority — aurora demand keeps Whitehorse rates high, particularly around Chinese New Year and the Yukon Quest in February.
How many nights do I need in the Yukon?
Seven nights is the practical minimum given the distances and the cost of flying to Whitehorse. Ten to fourteen nights lets you combine Whitehorse, Kluane National Park out of Haines Junction, and Dawson City with a Dempster Highway day, without doing 500 km driving days. For a pure aurora trip in winter, four nights in the Whitehorse area is the accepted minimum for a reasonable chance across weather variability. Two-night trips only make sense if you are connecting from Alaska overland.
How do I get from Whitehorse airport to downtown?
Erik Nielsen Whitehorse International Airport (YXY) is about 5 km from downtown, roughly a 10-minute drive. Most downtown hotels — the Edgewater and the Best Western Gold Rush — run free shuttles if you ask when booking. A taxi is around CAD 20 and Yukon has no Uber or Lyft. If you are picking up a rental car, all the major counters are inside the terminal, but note they often close by 11pm even when late flights land.
Do I need a car in the Yukon?
Yes, unless your entire trip is inside Whitehorse city limits. There is no passenger rail, and intercity bus service is limited to a few Klondike Experience departures a week between Whitehorse, Haines Junction and Dawson City. Kluane, Tombstone, Carcross, Marsh Lake and the Alaska Highway lodges are all impractical without a vehicle. Book the rental at the same time as the flight in summer — Whitehorse has fewer than 400 rental cars in total across all agencies, and July regularly sells out.
