A Mountainside Stay: Fairmont Chateau Whistler Review

Set at the base of Blackcomb Mountain, the Fairmont Chateau brings comfortable accommodations for the winter seekers. Grand in size, the Chateau stands out with its peaked roofs and glistening lights in Whistler.

Stepping into the lobby, the unparalleled service of Fairmont Hotels is apparent. Greeted with a smile and a quick check-in process, we were at ease at once. As we peered out the large glass windows overlooking the mountain, the snow started to fall, and our stay began.

The time at the Fairmont Chateau was both beautifully luxurious and approachable. Their alpine-design in the lobby made the space feel comfortable, with large fireplaces to cozy up to. Downstairs on the main floor, the expansive health club included a heated lap pool, a fitness room, saunas, and an indoor hot tub. Every afternoon, we retreated here for a soak and a steam to warm up after a day of adventures.

The evenings turned into dark quickly, but not before a great après-ski drink at the Mallard Lounge. It was buzzing, with both visitors and locals alike. After a drink, one night we dined at The Grill Room, experiencing the finest ingredients from the region, plated beautifully, and incredible service. With many onsite amenities at the Fairmont Chateau, like 7 restaurants, a ski rental shop, and other boutiques to browse, it makes it easy to never have to leave.

Being booked into a Gold Suite, meant walking into an room that felt like a home. We had a lovely fireplace that opened to both the living space and the bedroom. The living room was comfortable, including a large desk and a large closet to hang all of our winter accessories. The bedroom was cozy, and had a large window overlooking the snow-topped trees — one of my favorite views to wake up to. The walk-in closet was a dream, and of course, the signature bathrooms that have a soaking tub and a shower seal the deal.

Staying at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler was a dreamy getaway. Being close to the mountain was lovely, and having the service to help us tailor our trip made the stay easy. With the resort including amenities like a health club, yoga classes, a village shuttle, and more, it was a perfect time in the heart of Whistler.
