The YukonHome/Where to stay/Kimberley/3-star hotels
3-star hotels in Kimberley
A shortlist of 13 three-star hotels and condos in Kimberley, from slope-side lodges on North Star Mountain to properties in the Bavarian-themed downtown and quieter Marysville. It is for skiers, families and couples who want a base for the Purcell Mountains.
Staying in Kimberley
Kimberley is known for its Bavarian-themed downtown, the Kimberley Alpine Resort ski area and outdoor recreation in the Purcell Mountains. The central Platzl puts shops and restaurants within walking distance, while North Star Mountain holds the lifts and trails of the ski resort. Most of these 3-star properties sit on the ski side of town, along Gerry Sorensen Way, Dogwood Drive, Stemwinder Drive and North Star Boulevard, all within 0.1 to 0.7 km of the centre, with one at 1.2 km and Western Lodge out at 3.3 km on Warren Avenue.
The mix suits different travellers. Skiers and boarders are best placed in the North Star Mountain addresses, while couples and short-break visitors can pick a condo or lodge close to the Platzl. Families have room to spread out in the multi-bedroom condos with kitchens and pools, and business travellers are covered by meeting rooms and business centres in the larger lodges. A car helps, especially for the ski hill and trailheads.
