It's our favourite hotel to stay in Whistler - in fact, I can't remember the last time we stayed at another place when we come up from Vancouver.
For us, it's the perfect location - still in the Whistler village, but away from the hustling, bustling, and the noise (if you know, you know - especially if you are staying near the strip/ road where all the clubs and bars are). We can easily walk to our favourite restaurants/ food places, and desserts such as 21 Steps, Balam, and Cows.
The staff is always friendly, and the check-in/check-out process is very smooth and painless. The underground parking lot is accessible, and you can pay upfront when you check in for $25/ day (and on the day you check out, you can still park until 4 PM).
The rooms have always been so cozy, clean, and exactly what we need, no matter what type of room we opt for. There are always coffee pods available, and we like to get a pastry or two from Pure Bread, overlooking the mountains, while having a cup of coffee on the balcony. The pool and hot tub are also very well maintained (even though the hot tub is on the smaller side).
Overall, I cannot recommend Alpenglow enough, especially when you are considering a more cozy, (relatively) budget-friendly option when staying in Whistler. We can't wait to be back probably this year again, as we'd like to go up twice a year!
