The hotel offers rooms on a B&B basis so you have the choice of trying out the towns many dining options or even sampling the onsite Michelin star restaurant “Le Bistrot” for some culinary delights.

In the winter, a 2-night Vancouver stop-over stay is the perfect complement to a Whistler holiday. Thanks to Vancouver’s mild climate, the city is easy to explore in the winter time. Spend some time soaking in the sights and ambiance of this charming city with its curious mix of one-of-a-kind attractions, eclectic neighbourhoods, tempting shopping, lively nightlife, epic culinary scene and fun outdoor activities.
