The luxurious Le Westin Resort & Spa, Tremblant, in the Province of Quebec, Canada is nestled in the Pedestrian Village a short stroll from boutique shopping and excellent restaurants, and so close to the mountain that they offer ski-in/ski-out services via access on the third floor of the hotel.
Edward and I stayed in a spacious two-room suite at Le Westin Resort & Spa, Tremblant in late February 2011, and appreciated its close proximity to everything, combined with excellent amenities including a Business Center, complimentary daily newspapers in English and French, Westin WORKOUT® Room with state-of-the-art fitness equipment, Amerispa where we indulged in pampering Spa services, a Sauna, and a heated outdoor pool and an oversized whirlpool where we relaxed outdoors and especially appreciated after a fun-filled day of adventures.
Heated Outdoor Pool
The hotel has two excellent restaurants, Restaurant Yamada featuring Japanese cuisine and sushi, and Lounge featuring international and regional cuisine. One of the more unusual, but very tasty, highlights that we enjoyed during dinner at Restaurant Yamada was the Maki B-52 made with salmon, Rice Krispies®, avocado, and lettuce served with spicy sauce. We also enjoyed the Maki Dancing Eel made with smoked eel, crabstick, caviar, avocado, and cucumber; the Smoked Fresh Water Eel Sushi; and the Warm Maki Yamada Chop made with tuna, shrimp, avocado tempura with ginger sauce and caviar.
Sushi Chefs at Work
We began each day with a sumptuous breakfast at Lounge where the extensive hot and cold buffet offered French toast, pancakes, eggs, ham, sausages, bacon, homefries, a variety of cold and hot cereals, fresh fruit and melons, pastries and breads, smoked salmon, pâté, and much more.

Lunch highlights at Lounge included the loaded Traditional Club Sandwich of chicken, bacon, tomato, lettuce, on toast served with French Fries, and Cheese Quesadillas served with salsa and sour cream, and a side order of a basket of crispy French Fries, which was just what we needed after a morning adventure.

Our attractive two-room suite featured an electric fireplace in the living area that lighted with the touch of a button creating both ambience and warmth, there was a large Zenith television in an armoire, a sofabed and two comfortable chairs flanking a large coffee table, and a small terrace reached from the French doors that overlooked the colorful Pedestrian Village and the ski slopes.
