If you are a skier or snowboarder and have never experienced Whistler Blackcomb, you owe it to yourself to do it as soon as possible! If you want to enjoy staying at Canada’s #1 Ski Hotel, you will want to stay at Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside – but book your stay NOW as there is extra great demand these days due to amazing snow conditions.
Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside is the most conveniently located hotel in all of Whistler Blackcomb and can be found right next to the gondolas for both mountains. You can literally check in, have your car taken to the garage and walk outside a few steps and be on the snow in minutes.
Once on the hill, you can ski or board to your heart’s content, enjoying over 8,000 acres of luscious snow and amazing mountain views that just won’t quit. While there are plenty of expert runs and backwood opportunities on the hill, there are also plenty of visitors to Whistler Blackcomb who are enjoying snow sports for the first time. There is a world-class ski and snowboard school, with instructors from all over the world – they even offer lessons taught in different languages if desired. Many, many people learn to ski at Whistler and come back frequently to enjoy all that the Mountain and the Village have to provide.
After hitting the slopes, guests at Pan Pacific Mountainside can choose to walk for Après-ski at one of many Village bars and restaurants, or simply ski right up to the hotel and hit the heated saltwater pool and two whirlpools on the deck overlooking the base of the slopes. You will be the envy of everyone finishing their runs for the day.
The rooms at the Pan Pacific Mountainside are very comfortable and are all suites and include full kitchens, cozy fireplaces and flat screen televisions. Each suite has its own private balcony and many rooms have exquisite views of the mountain.
If you don’t want to make a nice romantic dinner in your room, you can get room service from the Dubh Linn Gate Irish Pub or just take the elevator down at eat at this very festive Pub. You might even enjoy dining on the out patio next to the fire pit, while enjoying the scenery.
Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside has the distinct advantage of the best location in all of the Village. Once your car is parked, you won’t be needing it again until you leave for home. Everything is within a short stroll and once you have enjoyed all the hotel has to offer, you may choose to explore more of what Whistler Village has to offer. World class dining and shopping awaits!
One of the best dining experiences in North America is offered at the Bearfoot Bistro – try the Chef’s five course-tasting menu or go for vodka tasting in their world famous Belvedere Ice Room. This room is kept at a constant -25 degrees (F) and is the world’s coldest vodka tasting room. Wear Canada Goose arctic parkas and taste four different vodkas for $50 and have a story to tell your friends. Make sure to take lots of pictures!
If you are not in the mood for fine dining or vodka tasting, there are plenty of other options for food like the Old Spaghetti Factory and Fat Tony’s Pizza – you absolutely must try their famous Beef and Blue Cheese Pizza. Bet you can’t eat just one slice …
After dinner, stroll through the Village or just head back to your room at the Pan Pacific Mountainside to enjoy your fireplace and a movie. You’ll need to rest up so you have as much energy as possible for hitting the slopes tomorrow.
Even with the many dining choices and all there is to do in the Village, almost everyone goes to Whistler Blackcomb in the winter to enjoy the snow. Whether you are a skier or a snowboarder, its important to take advantage of as much snow time as you can during your stay. This is a trip of a lifetime – especially when you stay at the Pan Pacific Whistler. You will never forget it.
