Ville de Mont-Tremblant - For the fifth consecutive year, Tremblant has been voted the #1 ski resort in Eastern North America by the readers of the prestigious American publication SKI Magazine. This is a remarkable achievement considering it has taken Intrawest only ten years to transform this jewel of the Laurentians into a veritable winter haven of international renown.

"Being #1 is obviously wonderful, but being able to maintain this status for five years in a row is extraordinary! It is important to underline the contribution of employees, hoteliers and business people on-site, without which we could not have achieved this honour," said Bryce Fraser, Vice-President of Mountain Operations at Tremblant. Patrick Maheux, co-owner of Café Ryan, is of the same opinion: "Such an honour can only be achieved through incredible teamwork. This is excellent news for all business owners."

Lodging at Tremblant
According to readers of SKI Magazine, Tremblant offers the best quality lodging in North America. For the third year running, Tremblant has won in this category. More than 1600 well-equipped units, located in a number of slopeside hotel complexes, are available to our guests to ensure a memorable stay. The latest news has delighted Denis Lagueux, Vice-President of Lodging for Les Suites Tremblant, and Pierre Plamondon, General Manager of the Fairmont Tremblant, who agree that, "It is a great comfort to know that our efforts have been rewarded. The credit is due to the entire accommodations team at Tremblant."

It was to be expected
Tremblant has come out on top among the resorts of Eastern North America once more this year, with the readers of Ski Magazine awarding Tremblant the gold medal for 9 out of the 16 categories. Besides lodging, Tremblant also deservedly won the public's favour in the following categories: service, après-ski, restaurants, lifts, family programs, food available on the mountain, quality-price ratio as well as activities off the mountain.
