There is no shortage of Fernie hotels and other Fernie accommodations available. The biggest decision will be whether to stay on-mountain at Fernie Alpine Resort or in the town of Fernie which is 5km (3 miles) away. For those without a car, there are shuttles or taxis to get between the town and the ski area.

Accommodation Fernie Alpine Resort

The slope-side mountain village at Fernie Alpine Resort continues to develop, but it’s still mainly residential with only limited dining, drinking and shopping opportunities. Families and others who want to be close to the slopes generally prefer to stay at Fernie Alpine Resort. The village has various ski-in ski-out condos and hotel style accommodation.

A stand out Fernie hotel is the award-winning Lizard Creek Lodge. This accommodation is not over-the-top opulent, but provides deluxe lodgings that are conveniently ski-in ski-out and arguably located in the best spot on the hill. Accommodations include hotel style suites in the actual lodge, or there are a range of condos adjacent to the lodge building. This fabulous property has great facilities including a lip-smacking fine dining restaurant, an upscale bar, day spa, pool and other trimmings. See our Lizard Creek Lodge review for more information.

An economical option is Griz Inn. The lodge rooms have a private bathroom and very simple décor and bedding. There are also 1 bedroom units with a kitchen. The inn is ski-in and a 2 minute walk out to the lifts.

Fernie Hotels and Other Accommodations in Town

The other option for Fernie accommodation is in town, which has the advantage of better access to a range of dining and nightlife options. The town definitely has historic buildings although it’s perhaps not quite as charming as other turn-of-the-century BC towns.

The town of Fernie has various hotels. A great choice is the Best Western Fernie Mountain Lodge. This hotel has a wide choice of accommodations including one-bedroom suites, executive suites and deluxe suites with Jacuzzi.

For well priced Fernie accommodation try the Fernie Fox Hotel, located on the ski hill side of town. The shuttle between the Fernie ski resort and town has a stop here.

For the budget oriented there are also two hostels in town, The Raging Elk and the SameSun Hostel.
