| Property Description | |
| The Fairmont Chateau Whistler is a landmark, all-season, luxury resort destination that opened in 1989. Nestled at the base of breathtaking Blackcomb Mountain, this four season luxury resort is just a five-minute walk from the village of Whistler. The 75-mile drive from Vancouver to Whistler is 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 was expanded in 1997 with the addition of 221 hotel bedrooms, a new 12,000 sq. ft. ballroom, four breakout meeting rooms, rooftop garden terrace with accommodations for 550 people 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. |
