Fairmont Chateau Whistler is
Canada's #1 Golf and #1 Ski Resort
by the readers of the Condé Nast Traveler Magazine.
The Fairmont Chateau Whistler is an all-season
luxury resort. Since opening its doors in 1989, The Fairmont Chateau
Whistler has been Whistler's landmark hotel. Nestled at the base of
breathtaking Blackcomb Mountain, the Chateau is just a five-minute
walk from the village of Whistler, and 75-miles from Vancouver along
the scenic Sea to Sky Highway, considered one of the most scenic
drives in North America. |

In building The Fairmont Chateau Whistler, the
architectural mandate was to 'infuse the charm and style of other
Canadian chateaux built earlier in the century, into a modern
structure.' Rustic Canadian antique pieces representative of the
country in its youth were collected in Labrador, Baffin Island, the
Laurentians, the Maritimes, rural Ontario and the West Coast. The
interior design was under the direction of Frank Nicholson,
internationally acclaimed interior designer, best known for
Ritz-Carlton hotels and many of the Four Seasons hotels throughout
the world. The Fairmont Chateau Whistler
expanded in 1997 with the addition of 221 guestrooms, a new 12,000
square foot ballroom, four breakout meeting rooms, rooftop garden
terrace, and an expanded spa facility. Bearing the signature style
of The Fairmont Chateau Whistler, the grand decor brings the old and
new together in a seamless meld of historical style and modern
beauty.
