The YukonHome/Where to stay/Whistler/3-star hotels
3-star hotels in Whistler
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Whistler, from pod-style rooms in the pedestrian village to condo suites and townhouses at the foot of the mountains. It is for travellers who want a rating of 4.2 or better out of 5 without moving up a hotel class.
Staying in Whistler
Whistler is built around a large ski resort, Whistler Blackcomb, and a pedestrian-friendly village where the lifts, dining and nightlife sit within walking distance. Winter brings the skiing and snowboarding season, summer the hiking, mountain biking and sightseeing, and the quieter spring and autumn weeks suit visitors who prefer fewer crowds. The resort hosted events during the 2010 Winter Olympics and holds the Whistler Film Festival.
Most hotels on this list have addresses in Whistler Village itself, including Village Green, Village Lane, Main Street, Sundial Place and Blackcomb Way, so the lifts and village amenities are close at hand. Others sit slightly out: Chateau Boulevard, Northlands Boulevard and Whistler Way lie just beyond the village core, while the Painted Cliff Road addresses are in the Upper Village at the base of Blackcomb Mountain. The mix suits couples on a short break, families needing family rooms or kitchens, and skiers who want to step out to the slopes.
