The Crystal Lodge is in a very convenient location, right in the centre of Whistler Village, which is great for visiting the numerous restaurants, which are, literally, seconds away from the hotel.
Self-parking was under the hotel, and cost us $34 per night.
The hotel is very clean and modern, with lovely staff, who always greet you with a friendly hello. The receptionist who checked us in was great, and gave us a lot of useful information about the hotel, and numerous ideas for spending our time in Whistler.
We were a little concerned about noise, being right in the centre of the village, but we were never disturbed, and the hotel itself is very quiet.
The only downside is the fan on the air conditioning unit in the room can be very noisy. However, the hotel do supply earplugs!
If we were staying in Whistler again, we would definitely opt for the Crystal Lodge!
