Frommer's Review

Don't let looks deceive. One of the oldest establishments in the Yukon, completely rebuilt in 1970, the River View breathes territorial tradition. The nondescript exterior belies comfortable, large, and fully modern guest rooms that represent a good deal in an otherwise expensive town. The lobby is crowded with Old Yukon memorabilia, from hand-cranked phones to moose antlers, and the Talisman Café has one of the best ethnic and vegetarian menus in town. You can't beat the location either: It's on the Yukon River, across from the MacBride Museum, and only 1 block from Main Street.

Facilities:
Restaurant; lounge w/entertainment; room service; coin-op laundry; nonsmoking rooms; pet rooms
