· less than a minute's walk to the Whistler Village and Blackcomb Excalibur gondolas and ski school meeting point · less than a minute's walk to the village centre · free shuttle service around Whistler Village (subject to availability)

The Westin Resort & Spa is arguably the best hotel in Whistler, when you take into account the amazing location and quality of the hotel. Located at the base of Whistler, you’re next to the gondolas for both Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, and literally a few paces away from the main village.

There's an indoor/outdoor pool and hot tub, and if the slopes haven't tired you out enough, there's an incredible fitness room to get your blood pumping. Or for a spot of post-piste pampering, The Spa at Whistler will tick the box with its menu of relaxing treatments.

The Grill & Vine restaurant serves excellent food made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Head here in the mornings and fuel up for the day with tasty platefuls of blueberry pancakes or smoked salmon. If you're in a rush to get on the slopes, you could opt for a bite to eat at Starbucks^®. Test out your chopstick skills at the Kaze Sushi restaurant for an evening meal, followed by an after-dinner drink in the Firerock Lounge. And whether you fancy whipping up a post-ski snack or cooking your favourite comfort food, each room is equipped with a full kitchen.

The hotel also houses a parade of shops, from art galleries to Helly Hansen. There's even a ski concierge who will pick your skis up at the base of the mountain at the end of the day.

All Summit stays are top-rated and have fab facilities and service, plus they’re in great locations too. Find out more about the Summit Collection.
