Where should a family stay for a wedding at the Westin Trillium House?

Couples who marry at the Westin often hold a hotel room block, and plenty of guests will use it. A chalet serves a different kind of household. A family of six with two toddlers, a grandparent and a dog fits one house with a kitchen, laundry and separate bedrooms. Eight university friends share one chalet more easily than they coordinate four rooms.

A Blue View booking is independent. It does not count toward the Westin block or any package the hosts arranged, so ask the couple first if their block has a minimum they need to fill.

Road estimates to the Gord Canning Drive hotel approach are about 5 minutes from 104 Brooker Boulevard (1.6 km), about 5 from 44L in Tyrolean Village (2.5 km) and about 10 from Aqua Villa (4.7 km). Add parking or drop-off time and the walk to the ballroom or the Mill Pond Terrace.

Guests in the Brooker cluster may prefer to walk toward the Village rather than look for parking. Check the route in daylight, and keep a ride booked for anyone in heels, with children, or leaving late. Each chalet keeps four parking spaces, so the family car can stay put all weekend.

For one family of up to 10, The Vista has four bedrooms and three bathrooms in the Brooker cluster. For 12, The Stella has five bedrooms and a dry sauna. Two families travelling together can take a side-by-side pair such as Aurora and Vista, which sleeps 24 at the pool end of the row; the shared pool runs from May to mid-September.

The maximum covers everyone on the property, and day visitors are not allowed, so cousins staying at the hotel cannot come back for a late drink. The wedding guest accommodation answer explains how to group households.
