Where Heritage Meets Mountain Majesty
Been welcoming families and adventurers for decades. Our historic lodge isn't just a place to stay - it's where mountain stories begin.
Since 1940, we've been that place where memories happen
Literally minutes from Whistler's best runs - no joke
Guests keep coming back, and that says everything
Look, we've kept the old-world charm - the fireplaces, the timber beams, those views that make you stop mid-sentence. But we've also got heated floors, rainfall showers, and beds so comfortable you'll sleep through your alarm.
Every room's got its own personality. Some folks love the tower suites with 360-degree mountain views, others can't get enough of our ground-floor rooms with private garden access. Been here long enough to know - there's a perfect room for everyone.
Explore Our RoomsMore than just a place to crash after hitting the slopes
From cozy couples' retreats to family suites that actually fit your whole crew. Real wood, real comfort, and yeah - those million-dollar views come standard.
Our guides know these mountains like their own backyard - because honestly, it kinda is. Summer hikes, winter expeditions, or just finding that perfect photo spot.
Chef Marcus does things with local ingredients that'll make you forget about that diet. The Sunday brunch? Yeah, there's usually a waitlist.
Sore from skiing? Our massage therapists are miracle workers. Hot stone treatments, mountain herb facials, and a sauna with views that make you never wanna leave.
Weddings that people actually remember, corporate retreats that don't put folks to sleep. Our heritage ballroom's hosted everything from intimate ceremonies to big celebrations.
Forgot your gear? No worries. We've got top-shelf equipment and staff who'll get you sorted in minutes. Heated storage too - nobody likes cold boots.
"Came for a weekend ski trip, ended up proposing on the terrace at sunset. The staff somehow knew and had champagne ready. Emberthorn isn't just a hotel - it's where life happens."
- David & Jennifer, Toronto
"We've been doing our family reunion here for 12 years running. The kids who used to need high chairs are now bringing their own kids. That's the Emberthorn magic right there."
- The Patterson Family, Vancouver
"As someone who's stayed at resorts worldwide, Emberthorn's got something special. It's that perfect mix of history, luxury, and genuine warmth. Plus their hot chocolate recipe should be illegal."
- Michael Chen, Hong Kong
Our restaurant's been winning awards, but what we're really proud of is the regular who drives up from Vancouver every month just for our wild salmon. That's the real recognition.
Breakfast with mountain sunrise views, fireside dinners that last hours (in a good way), and a wine cellar that our sommelier basically lives in. Local ingredients, classic techniques, and yeah - we've got vegetarian and vegan options that even meat-lovers order.

After a day on the slopes or trails, your body's gonna thank you for booking that massage. Our spa's not some afterthought - it's a full-on mountain sanctuary.
Floor-to-ceiling windows in the relaxation lounge, treatments using local botanicals, and therapists who actually know what they're doing. The alpine stone massage is basically legendary around here. Hot tub's open till midnight too, just saying.
Whether it's your first time or your fiftieth, we've got a room with your name on it. The mountains aren't going anywhere, but our availability does fill up pretty quick during peak season.
