Our family always stay at the executive inn when we take a trip to
Whistler. One of the main reasons we love it here is the convenience of
its location and the price which is very reasonable. Yes, the services
offered at the hotel are minimal, but we didn't come to Whistler for
hotel service. There isn't an elevator, but we always stay on the second
floor, so we get a tad bit of exercise - no big deal. The laundry area
is small, but sufficient and clean. In fact, the hotel itself is fairly
clean and well maintained. It doesn't offer all the bells and whistles
of the major luxurious hotels, but at the same time, is it 1/2-1/3 of
the price less. The bathroom is small, and the tub is abit awkward to
get into, but my kids love turning on the jacuzzi with bath bubbles
after a long day of playing in the snow. The bed in the loft is very
comfortable. There is enough storage. The very best that this hotel has
to offer is the location. Close to everything! Convenient free
underground parking. We have been vacationing at this complex for over a
decade, since it was the Fireplace Inn and always come back for the
location, convenience and value. Christensen Family

The best attribute of this place is its proximity to the the ski
lifts...it's close. And the studio we rented was kept clean. But, for
the price, it has many inadequacies and quirks. The shower (or lack
there of) being the prime one. In order to advertise in-room hot tubs
Executive Inn has stuffed an oddly designed one in each bathroom such
that you can barely open the door to let yourself in. It is very
difficult to get into as well. For some older people it may be
impossible w/o injury. Extremely low water flow from the shower once you
manage to get in awaits. You will end up taking baths for your stay
here. Overall lighting was poor...very dark. Refrigerator did not work
well...ended up keeping drinks on balcony to chill. Front desk service
was apathetic and unfriendly. No help with luggage in lieu of no
elevator. Would not stay here again!

The Whistler Executive Inn is really a barebones affair. Service means somebody at the front
desk during business hours. The building needs freshening up outdated in the
bathrooms. Fantastic location, right in the heart of the village. This hotel is
a bit dated, particularly in the entry area. The bathroom is small and has a
very odd style of Jacuzzi. Otherwise lovely little room with a wood burning
fireplace, and a nice kitchenette. Not
high end, but very clean and serviceable.

Location is just awesome - just 2 min from the gondolas/lifts and the bus stop
for the free shuttle to Blackcomb base. You REALLY don't want to be lugging your
snowboard/skis around for more than 2 min after a long day out on the slopes. We
had a double loft at the Whistler Executive Inn which is really cosy for a couple with the fireplace and hot
tub. You will sooo congratulate yourself on splurging on a place with a private
Jacuzzi. Plus the bed is *super* comfy!
Having said that, the fire logs don't give out much heat and it's mostly for
ambience. Also the door to the balcony lets in some of the cold in the winter
though, so you might want to opt out of the balcony rooms (not like you're going
to be out there basking in the winter chill anyway). The tub is quite an
acrobatic feat (even for us under-30s) to get in and out of, and you have no
choice but to use it coz it's combined with the shower!
Whistler Executive Inn is really more an inn than a hotel so just don't expect the lobby/reception to
be posh and the amenities to be amazing and you're all set for an awesome stay!

We stayed there while under major renos (new elevator) and it was still a
disappointment. Unfinished room should not have been let. When asking for a hair
dryer, non available. Typical of many service issues. An e-mail to the manager
after our stay with constructive criticism elicited no reply. They have some
understandable serious challenges prior to the Olympics and must learn how to
deal with their customers.
