Four Seasons Whistler Trip Report

HomeAll PostsTrip ReportFour Seasons Whistler Trip Report

We were fortunate to have a nice weekend getaway in Whistler with a stay at the Four Seasons Whistler.

The Four Seasons Whistler was recently awarded the Number 2 spot among the Top 20 Resorts in Canada and rated among the Top 100 Hotels & Resorts in the World by Condé Nast Traveler’s 2012 Readers’ Choice Awards.

This hotel provided us an upgraded room (on a top floor) and provided a crib and child-proofed the room.

We even received a welcome snack and letter from the chef.

The hotel staff goes out of there way to make sure you have a nice time and are taken care of.

We were lucky to come up on a sunny Saturday with low occupancy to take advantage of the nice pool they have (no chlorine).  They had sunscreen, bar staff, towels, spa water, and anything that you needed. We loved taking our daughter in the pool.

After our swim we took a nice hike with friends. Everything is so close that once you park you don’t need the car in the village.

We went for dinner at Fifty Two 80 eatery + bar (Sidecut was closed).

What a meal we had!

We were so stuffed!

Breakfast the next day at the restaurant was incredible. I could not imagine being hungry after eating here (good quality food with large enough portions).

      Jonthan,

      I paid a rate of $199 per night. I also had to pay a $35 / night parking fee (elsewhere is around $28 in the same area and it was valet parking).

      I booked using a Virtuoso travel agent and received $60 credit for breakfast and $100 dining credit with the upgraded room.

    That is a beautiful hotel room and pool! The food looks delicious too.

    I am a big fan of Four Seasons Resorts but don’t stay there often as it is out of my budget. You got a great deal!
