Property Description
Located in Canada’s greatest year-round recreation destination, The Westin Resort & Spa in Whistler is just steps from both Whistler and Blackcomb Mountain gondolas and literally a chip shot from the Whistler Golf Course driving range. Opened in 2000, this Four Diamond designated resort hotel and conference centre has been twice-named the #1 ski resort hotel in North America and is the recipient of numerous meeting awards over the years. In addition, The Westin’s ‘enviro-friendly initiatives’ have also earned it top honors with four green keys from the Hotel Association of Canada. Although Whistler has the highest vertical rise mountains in North America, it is more than just a ski destination. There are four signature golf courses, designed by the likes of Nicklaus, Palmer, Trent Jones and Cupp and a host of soft and extreme adventures from canoeing on the River of Golden Dreams or a leisure bike ride on the Village trail to the adrenaline-charged zip-lining and river rafting. And, with a full-service Concierge department at The Westin Resort & Spa, all activity and tee-times can be arranged prior to arrival. All 400 residentially-designed suites and guest corridors have just undergone a $10 million refurbishment. Your delegates will enjoy our new look; a tasteful blend of mountain décor and urban sophistication now and during their visit. The new design for the fabrics, furnishings and fixtures is a rich color palette reflective of the stunning mountain surroundings and location. Every suite features a welcoming fireplace, inviting soaker tub, flat panel television, quality-appointed kitchen and, of course, Westin’s famous Heavenly Bed®. With WiFi accessibility throughout the hotel guests can stay in touch with the home or office in the comfort of their guest room.
