Hotels near Big Red Express, Whistler

"This Whistler resort offers an exceptionally convenient location with quick, effortless access to both the village and the gondola station. While the rooms and facilities are overall good enough to provide a comfortable stay, it is worth noting that the south tower is showing its age a bit more than the newer north tower. For leisure, guests can enjoy casual fun at the small heated pool and hot tub on-site. When it comes to pricing, visitors should anticipate extra costs at checkout; the $37 CAD gated self-parking fee combined with resort charges adds up to an additional $90 CAD or so. Despite these extra fees, the property ultimately delivers great value for money. The experience is further elevated by Whistler itself, which serves as a spectacular, scenic destination—particularly on a sunny day. Purchasing an Alpine ticket is highly recommended, as it seamlessly covers the uphill gondola, the famous Peak 2 Peak gondola, and the chairlift to the very top, capping off a wonderful mountain getaway."

"This place was awesome! Me and a buddy stopped by for layover in Vancouver and the staff are so friendly and accommodating, they let us store our luggage easily and trrated us great. The manager is a great guy too. Josh was great too, and he totally deserves a free beer."

"Both the service and cleanliness were excellent. The front desk staff were also very helpful. As for the parking, it's in a great location and you can use it even before check-in time. The price is also comparable to public parking, especially if you calculate it for a full day's rental."

"Very satisfied! Going skiing, this hotel is right next to the cable car, very convenient. The room looks newly renovated, the service is very good, cleaning every day, will help to put away the bed frame and start the dishwasher. Although the bed is put away, it is very convenient to put it down, the mattress is also suitable, and the sofa is also a bed. In theory, more people can sleep. After the space is reserved, the kitchen area is increased. The kitchen facilities are very complete, including stoves, toasters, refrigerators and even dishwashers. Cooking is no problem! Although the room is not big, there is a fireplace, and the noise is not loud. It is a very satisfactory stay!"

"Our room was spacious and well-appointed, complete with cooking facilities, and it was wonderfully quiet. The staff provided excellent service, being incredibly friendly and helpful. We especially loved the delicious complimentary snacks. Plus, there's a charming little stream right by the hotel, perfect for taking photos."

"Conveniently located a few steps away from the Whistler Gondola. Rent your ski gear from the Can Ski store located at the ground floor and you can easily drop off/pick up your skis at their valet.  Our suite has a kitchenette and dining table so it was easy to eat breakfast in our room before heading off to ski. There is a grocery store a 5 min walk away. The fireplace in our suite was nice and we used it quite often. The hot water in the shower was almost instantly available which we appreciated. The hotel is a little dated but has everything we need. I highly recommend the Japanese restaurant, Ka Ze, located at the hotel. Reservations recommended."

"This time, I stayed in a duplex room, and the overall sense of space and design was truly excellent. It was very comfortable to live in, and the view was great. However, the only slight drawback was that due to the duplex layout, the air conditioning didn't seem to circulate well to the upper floor, making it feel quite stuffy when sleeping upstairs. I suggest the hotel consider adding a circulating fan upstairs or enhancing the air conditioning system in the future, then the overall stay experience would be perfect!"

"The room is a spacious loft unit. Its prime location in Whistler Village means the gondola is just a short walk away. On the ground floor, guests can enjoy complimentary coffee, milk, and hot water available 24/7. While breakfast isn't included, the front desk provides complimentary grab-and-go granola bars. Please note that parking is an additional $32 USD per day."

"They offered free breakfast, and it was incredibly rich – fresh fruits, too! It would have been even more perfect with some vegetables. The hotel service, as always, was excellent, and the facilities are tastefully classic and understatedly luxurious. This is my fourth visit, and honestly, besides the price, there's absolutely nothing to complain about!"

"The price-performance ratio is acceptable for summer travel; around $2000 per night is reasonable. The location is excellent, with the Peak 2 Peak cable car right downstairs, making it convenient for dining and shopping in town. The service staff are very friendly. The extra $30 for parking per night is a bit of a rip-off. The kitchen is fully equipped, and you can buy groceries at the town supermarket to cook your own meals. The hotel offers a 10% discount coupon for shopping, which is a good deal. There's a hot tub on the rooftop, perfect for taking Instagram-worthy photos, but you must book in advance. Call early at 9 am, otherwise the prime evening time slots will be booked very quickly."
