8.6/10 Excellent! (2,510 reviews)
Pros:
The hotel was clean and well-kept, which was a big plus. Its location is very convenient — just a short walk to Whistler Village, so getting to restaurants, shops, and the lifts was easy and stress-free.
Cons:
Check-in was delayed. Even though I arrived early, I wasn’t expecting to get into the room right away, but our actual check-in didn’t happen until 4:15 PM — 15 minutes past the official 4:00 PM check-in time. Not a major delay, but still a bit frustrating after a long journey.
They also took a $50 security deposit at check-in, which they said would be refunded at checkout. It’s now been two days since we checked out, and the refund still hasn’t been processed.
Parking was an additional $29 per night, which adds up quickly and felt a bit overpriced given the overall experience.
Another downside was the pool and hot tub — they were overcrowded during our stay, to the point that we couldn’t really access or enjoy them, which was disappointing as we were looking forward to relaxing after a day on the mountain.
Summary:
While the hotel was clean and well-located, the service delays, additional charges, and lack of access to the amenities affected the overall value. It’s okay for a short stay if location is your top priority, but I’d recommend managing expectations around service and amenities

We especially loved how walkable the area is. Tons of shopping and things to see! While there are no dining options at the hotel itself (that we noticed), there is a market on premises and many options to dine nearby. Thank you for the great stay!
