"Our first few interactions were with Jerica (front desk), who is the loveliest human. She was friendly and professional, ran up herself to make sure our room was ready, and then called after to check on our satisfaction. We happened to come during pool maintenance, and she was very kind about it, making sure to tell us about our hot tub options while offering our disappointed kids cookies, which totally saved the day! We saw active cleaning everywhere, and our room itself was very nice. Grabbing dinner from the attached Boston Pizza was very convenient. In the morning, we were surprised to see an excellent breakfast spread including hot items, cereals, baked goods, yogurt, and juice. The checkout staff were also very friendly. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again! "
A verified traveller stayed at Best Western Plus Fernie Mountain Lodge
"Overall, we loved our stay. Extremely convenient location on the mountain where you can put your skis on as soon as you step out the door to glide to a chairlift. The unit we stayed in was clean and comfortable. Our unit had a double bunk bed in one room, but there was no ladder to the very high top bunk which made it a bit of a challenge to get to... fortunately, we had a young crew that handled it ok. We had arranged for 3 parking passes in advance, yet when we arrived, there were none left for us and it unfortunately took a few phone calls, even after we received warnings on our vehicles, to get it straightened out. The one big annoyance was the need to use FOB's to get in and out of the building and room. We had 6 skiers and 3 FOB's, which made it a bit of a hassle to freely come and go, and on more than one occasion, we misplaced a FOB that took searching to find. On our last night, our neighbors accidentally locked themselves out of their room and couldn't get hold of anyone.. car keys and money in their room. They even explored getting across to their balcony from ours. We never did find out if they got into their room that night. We've previously stayed in units where access to the room is controlled by a combination deadbolt that makes it so easy with nothing to misplace. With all this said, we truly did enjoy our stay at the Cornerstone and would definitely consider returning. We love Fernie and this location is hard to beat. :-)"
