Inside, you’ll find a surprisingly warm and welcoming ambiance that feels more like a country retreat than a chain hotel, with roaring fireplaces, rustic wooden accents, and a truly excellent spa.
Rolling Stone, June 2025Fairmont Chateau Whistler echoes the style of Canada’s grand railway hotels, offering classic luxury for a mountain getaway. Outside the bustle of Whistler’s main village, the property is a short walk from the slopes on the Blackcomb side of Whistler Blackcomb resort.
Forbes, January 2025At the foot of Blackcomb mountain you’ll find what many rate as the finest ski hotel in North America, The Fairmont Chateau Whistler. This massive ski-in ski-out castle is, on the inside, surprisingly warm and inviting, more like a traditional country retreat than a big-time corporate chain hotel, with rustic wooden beams supporting the lobby’s ceiling, and an elegant, traditional look to the guest rooms, far from the utilitarian anti-style of many ski hotels.
