This property is well situated in Sunpeaks Village, in the midst of all the shops and close to the primary ski lifts, golf course and other amenities. Front desk staff were friendly but the back office person (?manager) was quite dismissive and not very willing to respond to questions or address concerns. The suite was spacious, clean and comfortable. There is seating for 4-5, plus the dinette. There is no air conditioning, so the unit was very hot, in spite of a recent dip in temperature. Parking is underground, and well lighted, and BC fragrant. This location needs to repair its ice machines. We did not use the hot tub. Pets are not permitted at this facility. It was good value, but there are other locations in the village that step up their hospitality a bit better.

Hi Lori, Thank you for your review, we are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay and hopefully you will come stay with us again! I will pass on the feedback to the team. Your particular unit was not pet friendly as per the owners request, however we do have pet friendly units available if you decide to bring your furry family member - just let us know when booking and we will find a pet friendly unit for you.

The room was very hot and the bed was unusably hard. We rented a king bed and had to sleep on the pull out as the mattress was like a rock

There was no one at the front desk when we got there. It was an inconvenience for us to phone them then they didn’t answer, and tried it again and again. For the third time, they finally answer and told them we need to check in. We requested more coffee but that never came. We stayed 2 nights. Room is clean otherwise, plus spacious and there’s kitchenette so that’s a plus.

Hi there, we are limited hours at the front desk at this particular hotel in the summer months, however as soon as we know we have a check-in waiting and have finished dealing with the current guest we attend the front desk for you. Sorry that there was a wait on this occasion. Coffee is given complimentary for the first nights stay. You are welcome to also download our App which allows you to submit any requests for the hotels and we will pass it on to the appropriate member of staff. We are pleased you enjoyed your room and we hope to have you stay with us again sometime in Sun Peaks!

Location of this hotel has a huge advantage for skiers. Hotel is old but clean. Only one elevator in peak hours made waiting time long especially you have luggages for check out. I used stairs most of the time during my stay and they are bright and clean.

The rooms are nice size and the fireplace takes the chill off. It was very cold out when I was there. My room had a handy kitchenette that had all we need except additional garbage bags. The hotels location is fantastic. Easy access to the ski hill, pubs and restaurants. If there was a negative it’s that the front desk isn’t staffed in the evening and when my key to my room stopped working it took 30 minutes to get some help.

Not having the front desk open was inconvenient. If that information was provided ahead of time, we would be better prepared to go to other hotel to check in. Keys that were issued didn’t work to open our room was not welcomed, either. Thankfully, the front desk staff from Cahilty came quickly to replace the keys so we didn’t have to go back there.

Hi there, we are sorry that you were not given this information beforehand, one of our staff were to get an ETA to ensure they were there for your arrival at Hearthstone, as we were at that time based at Cahilty Hotel. We are glad they were able to sort you out a new room key, and I hope that you enjoyed the remainder of your stay

The property is very well located right at the village, we stayed at a very quiet time beginning of November so hardly anyone there, not even front desk people ;). We enjoyed the hot tub, walking around the area every day. The room was a bit dated, nothing fancy, it was fine for the price. We enjoyed our stay.

Didn’t realize there was no a/c, the room was hot. We were provided with an ancient fan, and the window didn’t open much. Also, the water pipes squealed when having a shower. Otherwise, everything was lovely and very clean.

We loved having the kitchen area with a full size fridge, toaster and stove top. There really wasn't any need for a dishwasher, a toaster oven might be nice as well but overall, it sufficed for us.

Great village location & ski-in, ski-out
The Hearthstone is in a great ski-in, ski-out location, and very central to the village. We stayed in a village side kitchenette room (#404) which had a king size bed and a pull-out sofa. We also had a view of the main ski mountains when sitting on our bed. We found the king bed to be very comfortable! There were plenty of pillows to choose from, and there was a mix of both firm and soft pillows. Room was spacious, and you could easy fit 2 people in the bathroom at one time if needed to get ready. Due to the current COVID situation there was no room service, and you needed to empty your own garbage bins if they got full. If you needed anything in the room like coffee, towels etc, you just filled out a form and dropped it at the front desk (or you could fill out the form on a phone app) & anything you needed was dropped off to the door of the room during the day. The kitchenette was well stocked..there were plenty of dishes, cups, utensils, cookware etc. It was nice to have a dishwasher, stovetop and a decent sized fridge in the kitchenette room, although that left not much room to put your own food in the kitchen. (We always find there is a trade-off somewhere in hotel rooms no matter where you stay). The hot tub in the hotel was open - each room could book it for a 10 minute session. We experienced friendly staff whilst we were there.

Ok If your trying to save money.
The hotel was okay, it was cozy and a bit outdated. The bed was terribly uncomfortable and rock hard. We had a room with a king, which was 2 singles pushed together with a huge gap in the middle. The toilet in the room doesn’t stop running. There was never anyone at the front desk.

The Desk staff was courteous, efficient, & professional. She answered my ?'s regarding the rental & options. Superb job today! We’ve stayed at the Hearthstone before, and its clear that these people know what they’re doing in operating a hotel, and they do it very well. Clean efficient, well decorated and with a decent bed to sleep in. Room; The room was spacious, clean and the furniture well positioned. The bathroom was clean and large enough for a couple to prepare in the morning to start their day. Coffee maker and small fridge are always appreciated when travelling, and this room had each. The bed was large and comfortable, and an assortment of pillows allowed a guest to choose firm or soft depending on your preferences. The room faced the front and was quiet in the night. …… did a good job here with running a Hotel. Well done.
