Pretty neat room. The main bedroom has a queen bed with two extra bunkbeds and a washroom (you would think the washroom would be in the main living room/kitchen area by the sofas but it wasn't. The room seemed very clean. Nice big balcony even though it was covered in snow. They allowed us to bring our dogs for a pet fee which was nice. There is a hot tub and it was open the first night but closed the second night so we never got to go in but the water looked yellow, locals said it was because of the hard water up on the mountain. The resort is adorable and I think I would go back. The front desk at first would not give us a late checkout because they said too many people were doing it but then they allowed us when we called back a second time. We stayed in the room with 4 adults for a wedding and it was enjoyable.

We stayed here for the weekend and it is right in the village, which is ideal for skiing. The beds were comfortable...and those things are about the only 2 positives that I can say about our room. When we got to the room we wanted ice but the ice bucket was full of garbage. The housekeeper said it happens all the time and she wasn't sure why people put garbage in the ice bucket. My question is why wouldn't they check that it hasn't been used? The tap leaked in the bathroom when we turned it on so we had to have a towel wrapped around it all weekend. There was a sewer smell coming out of the sink and the coffee maker had coffee grounds in it from the previous guests. The housekeeping was not great. It was not a very well sound proofed room and it sounded like the people in the next room and out in the hallway were right in our room. I would not stay here again, especially for the price we payed.

This was our 3rd time staying at the Chilcoot over the years. We have been to SilverStar many times and have found this hotel to be perfect for us (mostly because a 1 bedroom unit has a Queen and bunk and so we don't have to pay for 2 rooms).

Yes, it is an ancient building but we are there to ski and it has everything we want. The location is perfect as it is 30 seconds from the main drag and the ski runs. Full kitchen, decent sized room, fairly quiet except for our room, my kids are loud!

If you haven't been to SilverStar, you should try it. The lift lines will kill you because there are none so you will get very very tired. All the Aussies working there are super friendly and make everything fun. The mountain is big enough for avid skiers (like my family) to fill their boots with black diamond runs of all kinds but small enough that you can almost let your teenagers roam freely without fear of not seeing them for the rest of the day.
