Best Westin Hotels & Resorts in British Columbia

Situated in Whistler Village, The Westin Resort & Spa, Whistler, is conveniently located close to both ski lifts and civilization. The Westin's 400 suites feature many of the comforts of home, with kitchenettes, dining areas and Westin Heavenly beds. While guests can easily dine in their rooms, many recommend a meal or two at the on-site Grill and Vine, which serves up a sophisticated take on classic grill fare alongside golf course and mountain views. The FireRock Lounge also has a selection of delectable burgers for a more casual meal. Gym rats will appreciate the variety of exercise equipment at the WestinWORKOUT fitness center. Plus, any guest who forgets to bring workout gear can rent a pair of New Balance shoes from the hotel for $5 CAD. And vacationers looking to relax should make an appointment at the on-site Avello Spa, which garners praise for its deep-tissue massages.

Sitting pretty in the Vancouver's Coal Harbour neighborhood (less than a mile southeast of Stanley Park), The Westin Bayshore prides itself on its sophisticated ambiance. Accommodations are outfitted with the brand's signature Heavenly beds and sliding glass doors that showcase views of the harbor, Stanley Park or the city skyline. When you're not relaxing in your room, check out the property's two pools (one indoors and one located outside). Tucked into the lush, well-maintained grounds, the outdoor pool boasts panoramic views of the North Shore Mountains. For more pampering, book a treatment at the Vida Spa Vancouver or grab cocktails at the Seawall Bar & Grill. But plan to skip the breakfast buffet (which some past visitors say is overpriced) in lieu of the neighborhood's more reasonably priced fare. If you're a coffee drinker, be sure to swing by the Starbucks located in the hotel lobby.

Situated about 10 miles northwest of the city, The Westin Bear Mountain Golf Resort & Spa is a remote resort village spanning 1,300 acres and featuring two Nicklaus Design 18-hole golf courses and 156 accommodations. Recent guests compliment this Westin's comfortable beds, spacious rooms and mountain lodge-like feel (complete with lobby and in-room wooden paneling). All rooms come with queen- or king-sized Westin Heavenly beds, deep soaking tubs, a kitchenette or fully equipped kitchen and free Internet access. Golfers praise the lush greens and attentive staff on both on-site golf courses. If you're not a golfer, you can relax at the Sante Spa with a body wrap or a massage. Cap off your evening with food and cocktails at one of the three hotel eateries. Previous patrons particularly praise the intimate ambiance at The Cellar, which offers private dining for 10 to 20 guests, as well as wine tastings on Friday evenings. This destination is farther away from Victoria's main attractions, so you'll need to rent a car or catch a taxi to reach the city's center.

Many travelers refer to the Westin Grand Vancouver as their go-to Vancouver hotel. Situated on Robson Street, about three blocks south of the Vancouver Art Gallery, this Westin outpost puts visitors within a stone's throw of some of the city's best shopping. Along with the stellar location, guests praise the spacious, well-equipped accommodations. Outfitted with kitchenettes, Westin Heavenly beds and Westin Heavenly bathrooms complete with deep-soaking tubs and separate showers, the rooms are especially comfortable, according to recent visitors. If you're looking to turn the relaxation up a notch, head to the outdoor saltwater pool. Just make sure you stick around the rooftop pool terrace for drinks and snacks at the #PopUpPatio during the warmer months. When small plates won't satisfy your hunger, travelers recommend the seafood at Hidden Tasting Bar. While rates at the hotel are high thanks to its stellar location, you can save some some money if you're a Marriott Rewards member.

As its name suggests, The Westin Wall Centre can be found a little less than 3 miles east of Vancouver International Airport. While this Westin's location proves handy for air travelers, it's not particularly well-situated for sightseers: The hotel isn't located near any of Vancouver's top attractions. Recent guests are content to grab dinner at the hotel's on-site restaurant, The Apron, where visitors say the regional cuisine and service is above average. Lodgers also praise the comfy accommodations, which boast wide windows, Westin Heavenly Beds, flat-screen TVs and internet access (which will cost you extra). Despite the hotel's proximity to the airport, travelers say the room is blissfully quiet. When it's time to take off, you can hop on the hotel's free airport shuttle.
