Stayed at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler a few weeks ago while we attended Whistler Cornucopia. For us, checking in at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler is like coming home. It's an amazing property with stellar slope-side views (highly recommend that for your room selection). The rooms are modern, clean and comfortable. Great lounge and dining options at the hotel. We love relaxing at the pool area in the hot tubs. The saunas are great. My personal favorite is relaxing next to the cedar fire that's tended to all day. The hotel is a short scenic walk from town, but there is also a complimentary shuttle that makes a circuit to town every 15 minutes. There's also a network of walking trails nearby. The staff at the hotel are friendly and helpful and are always looking to make sure all your needs are met. Highly recommend the Fairmont Chateau Whistler. See you next year. Read less

Has style but no class, I would not go until it improves it's diversity and inclusion policy. Booked a family suite which was comfortable and roomy.

Has style but no class, I would not go until it improves it's diversity and inclusion policy. Booked a family suite which was comfortable and roomy. Service is slow but that is true for the whole of Whistler, which has a relaxed approach to servcice. Can be a good thing or a bad thing not sure which. However, one thing that is significantly noticeable about the hotel, the front of staff employees are signifcantly caucasian and the service staff are weighted towards a more diversse group. Was very uncomfortably noticeable and so not a hotel location I will be visiting again. Read less

As a status member having spent thousands of dollars at Fairmont this year the room they gave us was on the lowest possible floor, with the worst possible view, in the busiest part of the hall.

As a status member having spent thousands of dollars at Fairmont this year the room they gave us was on the lowest possible floor, with the worst possible view, in the busiest part of the hall. Tried to pull up the car by calling valet but waited 10 minutes on hold and gave up. Had to go deal with them in person I suppose. Going down to get our complimentary drink at the Mallard lounge we had to wait for 10 minutes before finally being forced to find someone to serve us as we were in danger of missing our dinner reservation. After dinner we went back to our room to head down to the pool only to realize that the room had no robes. Called guest services for robes but that took 15+ minutes and required we call them twice at which point the pool was almost closed. When asked why there were no robes in the room the answer was that they couldn't afford robes for all the rooms?!?! $400 a night in off-season and $30 a night resort fee and you can't afford robes... give me a break! The next morning woke a to a bill that overcharged us as they hadn't deducted the discount associated with the Accor points that was applied at time of booking. Had to straighten that out at the front desk. At least they waived the $30 a night resort fee because of the missing robes. Overall the worst Fairmont experience I've had and if this is a taste of what having status at Fairmont is like I'll be looking elsewhere going forward. Read less

As always, our stay is second to none. From our check-in on arrival to pool and spa time, dining, and time spent in the Maillard Lounge, it simply doesn’t get any better than the Fairmont Chateau Whistler for us!
