Wondering where to stay in Whistler? If you’re after luxury, it doesn’t get much better than Four Seasons Resort Whistler. It’s not exactly budget-friendly, but if you’re treating yourself, it offers a mix of elegance and access to everything the mountains have to offer.
Finding a good place to stay in Whistler can be a bit like trying to find a clean towel in a ski lodge after a long day on the slopes—difficult if you don’t know where to look.
But fear not, I’ve scoured the town for the best hotels that make you feel like royalty without you needing to auction off a kidney.
These aren’t the cheapest options, but they’re certainly the ones that’ll give you a solid experience.
Think of them as the high-end, yet relatable, places to crash after an epic day of skiing.
So, buckle up—because these hotels are the ones you want in your corner.
Four Seasons Resort Whistler
Four Seasons Whistler isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s an experience. Imagine a hotel so comfortable you might end up forgetting that you’re meant to leave and ski.
The rooms are spacious, with fireplaces (which, let’s face it, make you feel like you’re living in a luxury cabin), and there’s a heated outdoor pool and three hot tubs to bask in after a day on the slopes. The hotel is conveniently located in Upper Village, just a short walk from the base of Whistler Blackcomb. The on-site steakhouse, Sidecut Modern Steak + Bar, serves up mouth-watering seafood and a view you’ll want to brag about.
And when you’re done skiing, you can join the complimentary wine reception. After all, skiing is exhausting, and a glass of wine at the end of the day is practically a requirement. Click to view the images >>
Pinnacle Hotel Whistler
Pinnacle Hotel Whistler is the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re winning at life, even if you’re just there for a ski vacation. This hotel has a friendly, no-nonsense vibe that still manages to be stylish.
The outdoor pool and hot tub will have you relaxed in no time, and the rooms are so well-equipped, you might actually consider staying in one rather than exploring Whistler. The rooms come with kitchens, so you can avoid the ridiculous ski resort food prices if you’re feeling adventurous. (But seriously, who could resist trying out the Quattro Italian restaurant next door?)
And if you’re into convenience, you’ll love how close you are to Whistler Mountain’s base and everything else the village has to offer. Don’t forget about the shuttle service that whisks you away when you need a ride. Click to view the images >>
Adara Hotel
Adara Hotel is a boutique gem in the heart of Whistler Village. It’s small, but in a good way—like that charming café you always stop by.
The heated pool, hot tub, and mountain views will have you unwinding immediately after a day on the slopes, and the 50-inch TV in each room ensures you don’t have to miss your favorite show while you’re there.
Plus, I’ll be honest, the cookies they bake daily around 3 p.m. are so good, you’ll find yourself checking the time to make sure you’re there at the right moment. The hotel’s location is ideal for those who want to be near all the action, as it’s just steps away from the best restaurants and entertainment.
But, a word of caution: if you’re looking for peace and quiet, maybe ask for a room facing the mountains to avoid the village noise. Click to view the images >>
