SPORTS GROUP TRAVEL

Game Ready Stays for Sports Groups

From tournaments to championship weekends, The Josie is the perfect home base for traveling teams. With spacious guest rooms, team-friendly dining, and a central location in the Kootenays, we make it easy to focus on the big game while we take care of the rest. Whether you’re traveling for hockey, skiing, soccer, or any competitive sport, our group accommodations and meeting spaces are designed to keep your team comfortable, energized, and ready to win.

Youth Hockey Team on ice

Stay just minutes from the Trail Smoke Eaters’ home ice, with easy access to games against the Beaver Valley Nighthawks, Castlegar Rebels, and even cross-border competition with the Spokane Chiefs.

We’re proud to welcome youth teams traveling for tournaments and match-ups. With gear-friendly storage, complimentary parking, and a dedicated hospitality room for team downtime (based on availability), The Josie makes life on the road easier for players, coaches, and parents alike.

Between games, it’s easy to recharge. Hit the fitness facility, relax in the cedar barrel saunas, or unwind with patio and indoor games—while valet services for skis and bikes keep equipment out of the way. When it’s time to gather, share a meal at The Velvet Restaurant & Lounge, where vibrant menus are served indoors and out. And with every stay, you’ll also enjoy the chance to earn and redeem Marriott Bonvoy points.

At The Josie, every road trip feels like a home game.

Accommodations for Teams

Spacious rooms, double-queen layouts, and the comfort every athlete (and coach) needs after a long day on the road or on the ice. Group blocks are available to keep your team together and make coordinating simple.
