Hotel Type
Boutique Hotel
The ski darling of 2010 winter, Whistler is punctuating a crescendo of Olympic development that included expansion of the Sea-to-Sky Highway and an upgrade of overall village infrastructure in preparation to the big event. The only new hotel to open for the Olympic year, Aava Whistler Hotel is a family-mined boutique hotel reminiscent of the Alpine-style condos that surrounded Whistler village.
The Room
Located along the main thoroughfare of Whistler Way, the location is walking distance for snowboards and skier that don’t mind a block-or-so long walk to the Whistler Village Gondola. Family-minded White Spot Restaurant is literally on the hotel’s doorstep, serving cozy mountain-style grub with adjacent pub popular with mountain workers. Rooms are cozy white living spaces with high upholstered headboards, LCD TVs and free Wi-Fi well suited to budget conscious families given the rates that start at a mere $164-CAD per night.
