Not worth it
Sep 8, 2024amalu45Vancouver, Canada
I was there for a conference. The service and facilities were as I remember them from previous stays. Unfortunately this hotel is now charging a “resort fee”. It is disappointing to see this company is tarnishing their brand reputation by implementing such an incredibly crass practice.

I love Fairmont Chateau Whistler because the location and the ambience of the hotel is superb. The staff are friendly. Food and lounge is great. But in my recent stay, I found the bedding quality poor for a 4.5 star hotel. This is very disappointing from the Fairmont brand.
Two night stay.

We arrived amongst the hustle and bustle of the 29029 event but were made to feel very welcome and special with a room upgrade and champagne and chocolates to celebrate our Ruby Wedding Anniversary. The bed was so comfortable we slept like babies and the hotel itself is in a stunning location and beautifully kept.

Pretty much what you expect from a Fairmont Hotel - great service, pampering, comfortable beds, etc. what I enjoyed were the restaurants near the chateau were less expensive than the usual on-site restaurants. They do have an on-site restaurant and lounge but had less than a day to try. I did visit Portobellos for great donut, reajfast sandwich, and coffee. The night before we ate at HandleBar for great pizza by the slice. I would like to comeback in the future for a longer visit.
