Whistler Canada!
There are over 40,000 guest beds in Whistler Valley, but the biggest decision you'll make is whether to stay in or out of Whistler Village. Staying in the Village, you can forget your car for the duration of your visit and walk along cobblestone pathways from hotel to ski lift to restaurant to pub. Visitors from around the world stroll from shop to shop and sit at outdoor cafes. The Village is thus a lively place, but is never completely quiet. Staying outside the Village, you'll have a short drive to the lifts or restaurants (though many places offer shuttle service), but you'll also have a touch more of that mountain tranquility.

All the studios, condos, and hotel suites in the Village are top-quality. By the same token, there's little to choose from in terms of room quality between a midrange hotel like the Holiday Inn and a higher-end hotel like the Pan Pacific. In both you can expect a gas fireplace, kitchenette, small balcony, sofa bed, and one or two bedrooms. (The price difference normally pays for extra amenities: The Pan has a heated pool and hot tubs on a deck overlooking Whistler Mountain.) Outside the Village, there is a bit more variety, including a fine Austrian-style inn.
