booked late, everywhere was full, ended up in a "regular" room. It was grungy, I wouldnt say dirty, and outdated. The bed was awful, and there was an extra bunk bed there. This is definitly for the cost savy family traveling that doesnt mind "roughing it". That being said the staff was awesome, friendly and interested and genuinely interested. I'd... More

I stayed at the Griz Inn with family. 2 weeks :)! It was a great location, step outside the lodge and you're within sight of the ski lift. Just ski/snowboard to it and you're off! The rooms were nicely sized and clean. The whole place was cleaned once a week. Nice hot tub outside. Wifi is available and can be... More

We just stayed in one of the two bedroom condo units this past weekend. Our group was two couples and a baby. The unit was on the ground floor which made access great, and since we spent half our time in Fernie doing mountain things (zip line, hiking, etc.) the hotels location is prime as well.

We stayed at the Griz Inn over Family Day long weekend. The suite we stayed in was cozy, two bedroom and one hide-a-bed. It could definitely use some updating, especially compared to some of the newer places to stay on the hill. But we did enjoy being so close to the lifts. We came in for lunch every day, and... More
