First Mountain on a big ski journey. Had been told to come Fernie by friends. Booked through a specialist ski travel agent. Not so special it turns out. Still this was my accommodation booked for me. Ski in ski out. YES INDEED. Out the building, drop your equipment onto the snow, click and go straight to a chairlift. Neat. The... More

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

As i noticed it tends to be a load of Canadians/Americans writing reviews for this, so being a brit would throw my opinion in. I stayed for 9 nights, having been travelling for 20 hours in total, to arrive at the hotel to be greeted by the receptionist. I have to say this was probably the second worse experiance of... More

I stayed at the Griz Inn during Christmas break. The experience was wonderful. It was great being so close (SO close!) to the ski lifts and ticket office, having a rental shop just downstairs, and being able to take a dip in the pool and hot tub after a day of skiing. The room was well set up for everything... More

We stayed at the Griz over the Christmas break. The location is excellent, right at the base of the lifts and the ski shop in the basement made renting very convenient. The ski shop staff really took their time to make sure the boots would be a good fit. Desk staff and general staff were also very friendly and helpful.... More

The rooms are comforatble and well appointed. The ski shop in the basement is great - the guys know there stuff especially when it comes to boot fitting. More

The room/suite we chose was more that adaquate for our needs for 4 people. It gave us plenty of room to stretch out and for large travel bags. The room could sleep more than double our number, easily. Management was very accommodating and friendly. They did not bother us. More

You can't beat the griz. We've stayed at the griz approx 12 times in the past 8 years. It is no big deal walking a very short distance to get our lift tickets.
