Hotel Review of the
Holiday Inn Hotel Whistler
8 September 2011
We like Holiday Inns because they are reasonably priced and consistently
comfortable. However this hotel has problems. The hotel lay-out is odd and the
room we were given was strange. It was like staying in an attic room. Our
general impression was that hotel operator was penny-pinching to maximize
profit. We knew this is not a five-star hotel but the traditional welcoming
Holiday Inn feel was missing. We were in the room when the maid came so she
dropped off fresh towels and ran. She did not ask if we needed anything else and
we were surprised when we realized she had left. This is not a bad hotel but
there are others in this price range and we will look elsewhere next visit. We
booked through the Holiday Inn website and were not made aware of the $15 per
night parking fee.Hotel Review of the

I am a Priority Club member and use Holiday Inn and its affiliates regularly so
I have a bias in their favour but that does not stop me from being objective
when it comes to good service and good value. The key here is the quality of the
staff. We were there a week and deal with a number of people, they were all
great but Tim and Laurel who we had the most to do with were exceptional.
The Hotel is well located in the heart of Whistler Village just off the Village
Stroll, close to a range of Restaurants. The well sized, warm and comfortable
rooms are located in a number of buildings around the plaza where the Village
Stroll takes a left turn.
As far as properties go this Holiday Inn is not better and no worse than may
others. The difference is the staff and the location. I will be back.

The location on the Village Stroll is excellent! Convenient to the slopes and
many places to eat. Kitchen has everything needed. In room washer and dryer was
super beneficial. The room was a average, but clean. Definitely can hear the
partiers on the street below at all hours of the night. Staff was very helpful
and polite.

My wife, son, and I picked the Holiday Inn because it was a great price and
still close to the chair lifts. The rooms were decent, the beds were
comfortable, and the village is just outside the hotel entrance.
Skis and snowboards are stored in the lobby area and can be picked up and
dropped off by asking the front desk staff.
The only downside to the location is the late night crowds wandering/stagging
back to their own rooms at midnight or 1am. If you have a window facing the
village, the area catches and reflects the laughter and shouting so you think
they are standing right outside your window when they are really half a block
away.
Overall this was a great place to stay for a great price.
