Both properties have a condo feel; spacious, with full kitchens and generous storage space, and boast hot tub amenities, to unwind after action-packed days.

The enclosed fire pit area is a central communal space; in winter it is licensed for apres-ski socializing. Guests can also enjoy dining at the Lüft Café & Bar, which is quickly becoming a local hotspot.
Regent Hotel
The Regent is one of the oldest family-owned hotels in Canada and the oldest family-owned business in Revelstoke. A historic name in the community, and once deeply entwined with the railway industry, today the hotel is a charming place to stay for an unforgettable Revelstoke experience.
