Whistler, king of the British Columbia ski resorts, is undoubtedly one of the best destinations to ski in the world – and it’s not a bad place to stay either!

6 of the best places to stay in whistler

Whistler is the ultimate skiing playground - score two massive mountains, a mile of vertical descent, 8,000 acres of stunning terrain, huge snow, an Olympic pedigree, a long season and a village with a vibe to rival anything on the planet.

One of the leading tour operators to Whistler is tailor-made ski specialists Ski Independence,  one of the UK’s leading independent ski tour operators. Part of a family-owned and run travel firm established more than 50 years ago, it offers a broad range of bespoke ski holiday options.

And Whistler has been a key destination for them for many years. As product manager Nick Laver says: ‘I’ve skied over 100 resorts worldwide and nothing else comes close to Whistler Blackcomb.’ 

And when it comes to finding a place to stay, Whistler boasts some of the best and coolest lodgings around, from budget to peerless luxury.

Here are six of the best and you can view them all on the Ski Independence website.
