Pemberton Valley Lodge

Great & clean hotel! Has a kitchen and a great bed! I give this hotel 4 Stars because we checked in last night around midnight and the receptionist wasn’t nice at all. Today in the morning the other receptionist was super nice!
If you don’t have a car, try to go during the day! The bus stop leaves you around 6 minutes walking but you have to do it just next to the road and it doesn’t have any or path.
The hotel has affordable prices for the rooms considering the high season. I would probably go again! Hoping I don’t meet the receptionist from last night! He should take a course for hospitality!

My gf and I stayed here for two nights during one of our snowboarding trips to Whistler/​Blackcomb. Prices right in the village are pretty ridiculous so we found Pemberton had very reasonable prices (3−4x cheaper!). Everyone was very friendly and the check in/​out process was very easy. They even had a heated garage underground which made it easy to bring snowboarding gear in/​out each day. Plus we didn’t have to get into a freezing cold car every morning.
Sadly the ski resort is about 30 minutes away with no traffic and plowed roads. Not too bad, but not the best. For the price, it was definitely worth it with Whistler Village pricing in the $ 400s per night. There’s a gas station, a McDonalds, and a few small restaurants within a block or two of the lodge too.
My complaints (which are minor) are that the wifi is very weak. I’m from the USA so my cell phone doesn’t get service in Canada. I rely on it for work and other things so when I’m constantly losing connectivity, it becomes quite frustrating. The shower/​tub faucet would not turn off completely until you used all your strength. I was afraid I would snap off the knob. And coffee in the main lobby actually cost a little over $ 2 or so. Usually hotels have complimentary coffee.

I went to this hotel with my girlfriend and 2 of her friends. Overall, we had a pretty food time in this lodge. The room was clean (but when my girlfriend and I first enter our room, the whole room smells like curry).The hot tub was enjoyable. The interior design and the furniture were kind old fashioned, but it was classy at the same time. I particularly like the bed, it was so cozy! However, when my girlfriend’s friends were taking shower, they did not put the shower certain in the shower tub, so the water were leaking, even went through downstairs, so the hotel management asked them to pay for the damage of the ceiling. Anyways, I guess when I go back to the hotel again, I need to be particularly careful with the water and the ground, just in case if it is easily go through to downstairs.

Stayed here for a Whistler vacation. Location is past Whistler (when driving from Vancouver), so is a little further out of the way, but we saved some good money compared to staying near the resort. The room was clean and to our satisfaction. Sheets were fresh. Parking for our car was underground and convenient to prevent from having to walk in the cold. Staff was friendly and professional.
No complimentary breakfast that we were aware of though, so that was a typical thing we missed. The room we had came with a kitchenette so we could have been making our own food. Good option for some people.
Would stay here again.
