Kaleido Lodge Yukon

A very comfortable and cute lodge! It was quiet and relaxing. There is not much nearby, but there is a pretty view from the back, games in the common area, and a full kitchen that guests can use.

I have to admit that when I first passed through Whitehorse I brushed this hotel off because it was so far out of town. On my return, however, it was one of only two available. I wish I would have stayed here the whole time! This was a WONDERFUL hotel! The room was immaculate and comfortable. Staff was incredibly friendly. It was also the quietest hotel I have ever stayed at and it made for a great night's sleep! Breakfast was superb. I loved that there was a kitchen available for guests to use. I highly recommend this hotel.

The property may be out of town, it gives you an amazing view of the sky filled with stars and definitely a great place for northern lights. The rooms are clean and spacious and the facility has everythingYou would need for any short or long trip. The staff are super kind and helpful.

Such an amazing place to stay! Only about 15 minutes out of town and it’s we’ll worth it! Amazing views of the mountains and the northern lights! We saw them right out the front door. Super clean and amazing staff. Some people complained about no TV, but I mean your in the Yukon why do you need a TV in the room… they do have one in the main area if that’s a deal breaker… overall amazing stay and highly recommend

Just a classic bait and switch scheme. We wanted a room in Whitehorse and the description stated “1.9 KM away from current location.” Once I booked, I received a message that “Google is sometimes wrong and it’s actually 21 KM away.” Not cool. I couldn’t locate a real website for this business. I wanted the address and a phone number. I was sent a link with Google maps. It’s just odd. I also received a message stating that breakfast is not included…even though the Trip Advisor description states it is. I showed the hosts the ad and they stated—via Google Translate interpreter—that they are not responsible for what Google shows online and only those who book on *********** get free breakfast. It’s $15 each otherwise. Like others mentioned, you must remove your shoes, leave them at the door and wear provided (used) slippers. It’s not a request. Not cool. The hosts have you read a booklet of rules then sign that you agree prior to allowing you to stay. In retrospect, we really should’ve left and requested a refund had it not been late. There’s a communal kitchen and someone was making noise between 3:30 and 4 am. Since the “hotel” appears to be a large modular home, the noise reverberates throughout the building. Rooms are small and clean. Rodent traps placed inconspicuously in closet. Check-out is at 10 am. Hosts seemed combative at every turn. Maybe a lot of these issues are due to language barriers and miscommunications, but I doubt it. I definitely do not recommend this place.

After a long drive, our stay was quiet and peaceful. A wonderful experience!

ロッジの庭でオーロラ出現を待つことが出来るので、自分のペースで部屋に入ったり外に出たり自由にできます。 私が宿泊した時は、お客さんも皆日本人でしたしスタッフさんも日本人で、海外にいるのに緊張感なくホッとできました。 きちんと清掃されていますし、設備も問題ありません。お部屋は暑いくらいでした。 ただ、お食事は選ぶことができないので食べられない食品か多いと辛そうです。歩いて行ける所にはお店はありませんので予めの準備が必要です。

空港から車で20分ほどの郊外にあるロッジ。 ここはオーロラDXとも言える、オーロラ予測アプリのお陰で飛躍的にその価値が高まっている。 オーロラを観るには色々な方法がありますが、天候や磁気の影響などにより出る時間帯が変わるので、確実に観るには出来るだけ長く出る場所にいる事が肝要。でもマイナス30℃の屋外で一晩中待ち続けるのは不可能。出たり入ったりする訳だけど、防寒着に着替えるのはかなり面倒なのです。街の明かりが少ない方が良いので、ダウンタウンのホテルから3-4時間のツアーをやってくれるところもありますが、10時に出たり、2時が最高だったり、4時ごろやっと観れたりなど同じ場所、同じ季節でもオーロラは気まぐれで3時間のツアーではなかなか厳しい。 My aurora forecast と言うアプリはそれを一気に解決しました。かなり正確な予測で、自分のいる場所がこの予測マップのエリアに入るまでは屋内に居て、入ったら防寒着に着替えて外に出る。オーロラの強さによって色が変わるのも有り難い。 要は街灯のない郊外のlodgeでアプリを観ながらオーロラ圏内に入るのを待ち、圏外にはいったら外に出るのが最もオーロラを目れる可能性が高く快適という事。ここのlodgeはその条件を見事に満たしています。どうしてもオーロラが観たい人には最高でしょう。 空港からの送迎つき、スタッフを気さく。 スタッフは皆日本人、ゲストもほぼ日本人なので英語が苦手な人でも大丈夫。 部屋は広くて清潔、食事も美味しい。 アルコール類を置いてない事、シャワーの調整がイマイチなので星4つ。
