Coast Hotels announces new franchised properties in the Yukon
Coast Hotels Limited has announced the addition of two new franchise properties in historic downtown Dawson City, Yukon.
The introduction of Eldorado and Midnight Sun marks a significant milestone in Coast Hotels commitment to providing exceptional accommodations in unique and culturally rich destinations.
Eldorado pays homage to the rich mining history of Dawson City, taking inspiration from the iconic Eldorado Gold Mine. The hotel embraces a blend of affordable comfort and historic charm, offering guests an immersive experience that reflects the essence of the region — with spacious suites and well-appointed rooms, essential amenities, personalized service, and an on-site restaurant and a lounge.
Midnight Sun draws inspiration from the awe-inspiring natural phenomenon of the Yukon’s perpetual daylight during the summer months. Anchored in the allure of Yukon’s rich past, this iconic 19-room boutique hotel, open seasonally from May to September, seamlessly weaves together the charm of a bygone era with contemporary hospitality — with a variety of room options, each designed to offer a unique blend of historic charm and modern amenities — and a Midnight Sun Lounge.
“We are excited to expand our presence in the Yukon Territory with the addition of Eldorado, a Coast Hotel, and Midnight Sun, a Coast Hotel, in Dawson City,” says Jin Sasaki, president & CEO of Coast Hotels. “These properties reflect our dedication to providing friendly service, refreshingly local stays, and memorable experiences for our guests while celebrating the unique history and natural beauty of Dawson City.”
Both properties are located to provide easy access to Dawson City’s key attractions, including the Klondike Gold Rush National Historic Park, Diamond Tooth Gerties Gambling Hall, and the Yukon River. Complimentary airport shuttle services add an extra layer of convenience, allowing guests to arrive and depart with ease.
