The location is great with lots to do during the day and then the convenience of the magical gondola rides up and back down from the reception on the top of Blackcomb left us all in awe. Read less

From start to finish the customer service and hospitality we experienced was unmatched. During our entire anniversary trip, ourselves and our small pup were treated with kindness and care. Loved our room, the food, and the little touches that made this hotel stay different than any other stay. We didn’t want to leave. If I could make one suggestion to improve experiences for future gluten free folks, I would suggest increasing your tea/mid day gluten free options as well as your dessert options. For tea/mid day, my options were limited and would often involve waiting up to 30 minutes to get a sandwich that didn’t look or taste that great. Additionally, while dessert was delicious, of the many options available, I was only ever able to have 1 item. When paying a premium to stay on a specific floor with perks, gluten free folks would greatly appreciate having the same level of food choices as everyone else. Read less
