Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The room was fantastic with afternoon tea facilities and many extras, but I missed having a mini refrigerator. The service was mostly friendly and helpful, although there were some inconsistencies. The location was fabulous and convenient for skiing, yet lacking in dining options. The dining experience was exceptional, especially the homemade dishes.
The hotel was a bustling hub with guests from all over, providing a lively atmosphere. The rooms, although nothing extraordinary, surprised us with their coziness and adequate amenities. The service was outstanding, with friendly and professional staff, although a few minor hiccups occurred. The location was superb, offering easy access to skiing services but requiring additional parking fees. The dining experience was above average, with delicious dishes, although one order was slightly overcooked. Overall, a satisfying stay with great facilities and services.
The hotel rooms were perfect and so comfortable, but the check-in wasn't ready by 4 pm as expected. The location was perfect for the slopes and activities, offering a quiet environment away from the village. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very helpful and even accommodating our dog, although some encounters with the night manager were unsettling. The dining experience was good overall, with high-quality food but a minor issue with the steak being a bit tough. The hotel facilities were well-maintained and added to the overall experience.
The hotel had fairly large rooms with comfortable beds, and everything was ready for us from day one. After a small argument, they upgraded us without any extra charge. While the room was basic, just like most hotels in Whistler, the overall experience was pleasant.
The hotel is well located in the quieter Upper Village, offering great amenities such as 3 large hot tubs, 2 pools, 2 saunas, and a steam room. The service is impeccable with attentive staff, but there were some issues with room cleanliness and service charges. Dining options are satisfactory, and the price could be more competitive for the value provided.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were smaller than expected but had a wonderful pool. The location was great, and the service was top-notch. However, the breakfast line was too long at times.
Wow! This hotel was truly a mixed bag for me. The rooms had a bit of an old-fashioned feel to them, a tad stuffy, but boy, did they offer a great view, and the comfort level was top-notch. The beds were so cozy, and room service breakfast was a real winner. Unfortunately, I did have a little surprise walking into a room already taken, which wasn't the best start.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms didn't meet my expectations as they felt like a cheap motel and were noisy. However, the service was exceptional, and the location was convenient for skiing. The dining was impressive, but there were limited restaurant options nearby.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely wonderful. The location was fantastic, offering great access to ski gear and a stunning view from the room. The live music at the Mallard Lounge added a special touch to the atmosphere. I appreciated the afternoon tea facilities upon arrival and the delightful extras in the room. The only downside was some noise initially from the lifts, but the staff promptly addressed it by moving me to a quieter room for the second night.

The dining options were good, although a bit on the pricier side, and the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
