One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at while traveling! Upgraded to The Jasper Suite with amazing views and luxurious room. Amazing support with travel around Whistler and bags that no other hotels offered. Friendly staff and delicious food at the restaurants.

This review is much deserved. I go to this Hotel a couple times a year. I have never had a bad experience. The colleagues are exceptional! I love how pet friendly the hotel is. The dog is treated like one of the family. The great amenities, dog bed, bowls, treats, and poop bags. So thoughtful! Lia at Front desk for remembering me from previous stays, for being so in tune with her guests. She went above and beyond her roles and sent a little gift not knowing I was going through a difficult time. Very thoughtful and caring! The service in Wildflower with Mark who has served us previously and is very good at interacting with his guests. Melodie B (I really hope I got her name right!) In the Grill who is such a delight to have as our server! Very professional and knowledgeable! I am never disappointed when I stay here. I need to let the secret out! I hope the staff read the reviews because they deserve to know they are in the right profession, and it shows! Thank you everyone for always making our stays amazing! Especially Oakley! Read less

This place is right in the middle of dozens of other resorts. Close to tourist trap strip mall, maybe a 10 minute walk. It’s relatively big. Our room was a one bedroom and it was huge. Very nice.

This place is right in the middle of dozens of other resorts. Close to tourist trap strip mall, maybe a 10 minute walk. It’s relatively big. Our room was a one bedroom and it was huge. Very nice. We had a view of the parking lot, get what you pay for! The gondolas are right outside the door. The staff are excellent, from the valet guys to the front desk personnel. Very good! The Squamish Lil’Wat Cultural Centre is across the street, very cool place and well worth a visit. This is the place to stay if you like being close to everything. There is an excellent little cafe/restaurant on the main floor. Food is awesome and the service is the best. A little too touristy for me, but I did enjoy my 3 days here. Read less

Beautiful inside and out. Comfy beds, stunning views. The outdoor pools, hot tubs and saunas…and roaring fire, are unbeatable. The only problem was that we only stayed for one night so didn’t get the opportunity to try the restaurant. Next time…

This was our first experience with the Fairmont Gold hotel within a hotel and we loved it! Check in in the lounge was very pleasant, and we had a room very close to the Gold lounge. The club lounge is fantastic, with excellent service, outstanding food, and great beverages. It is comfortable, pleasant, and very high class.
