Whitehorse serves as the economic, political and cultural centre of the northern territory of the Yukon and is an excellent spot to experience true sourdough hospitality. Located in the heart of downtown, within blocks of area restaurants, nightspots, shopping and government offices, the Sternwheeler Hotel and Conference Centre is the Yukon's premier hotel and conference center. The hotel provides convenient access to area attractions such as the SS Klondike National Historical Site, the Old Log Church and the McBride Museum as well as the world famous Frantic Follies - a turn of the century vaudeville revue which depicts the entertainment seen by the pioneers of the Great Klondike Gold Rush of 1898, which are located at the hotel. Recently renovated, the Sternwheeler Hotel and Conference Centre offers 180 first-class guest rooms and suites with hairdryers, modems, tea/coffeemakers and have 2 queen beds that can accommodate up to quad occupancy based on sharing existing beds. The Steele Street Ale & Roast House serves up a fabulous menu and in the summer months be sure to visit the Steele Street Patio with its open-air, heated design that provides a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere for guests to enjoy a lunch, light snack, dinner or a refreshing beverage.
