My wife and I stayed here for 7 days in early February 2013 and had an excellent time. The room is very spacious and well equipped. While we would have loved to have an oven in the kitchenette we found everything to be just about perfect. Our room looked out over the valley (i.e. away from the hill), and noise... More

We stay in a two bedrooms two bathroom unit on the second floor for five nights till Christmas eve. The unit is very spacious with a good functioning kitchen that is equipped to do basic cooking. Laundry room is where the underground car park is, it is coin operated. It is like a self contained vacation rental yet with daily... More

This hotel is located next to the piste, next to the main day lodge (ticket office, ski hire etc). We had a lovely family room, with a loft, and a amazing view over the pistes and mountainside. There is a fre car park on the ground floor and a ski locker room. On the down side, when we checked in... More

Very friendly staff, centrally located. Park your car underground and leave it there. Restaurant in the hotel is very good and very convenient for breakfast before heading out to ski. Well soundproofed room, well furnished with little fridge and microwave, and good heating system; beautiful view from room! Downside: Wi-Fi does not always work, cannot stream YouTube videos even when... More

I travelled with my 11 yr old son and it was perfect for us. I would return in a heartbeat. Excellent location for ski in and out as well as 50 yards to ski school and guest services.

This hotel is very convenient- right near the lifts and centrally located- truly ski in and ski out. The garage doesn't allow for cars higher than 6 foot 8, so with a Thule one we had to park outside. The staff were friendly and helpful- we had a TV that wasn't working and they replaced it. The cleaning service didn't... More

We've always stayed at the Inn at Big White and thought would be nice to try a true ski-in/out resort like this one. We specifically requested a room facing the village for a better view and to avoid the road noise. Unfortunately, we forgot about being on the slope meant being right next to the grooming machine, which came at... More

We stayed at White Crystal for three nights in room 307. The room was very large, with a small kitchenette, which was perfect for quick breakfast and lunch. The room was comfortable, but a bit noisy. You can definitely hear your neighbors, people running in the hall, ice machine and the hill grooming machines outside which start up around 7:30.... More
