Whistler is a five star resort town with five star accommodations and amenities and accordingly, prices range from moderate to high to luxury rates at all properties, changing during seasons and special events to even higher rates.

With only 10,000 permanent residents, Whistler has more hotels, lodges, B&B's, motels, resorts and condos than most cities 10 times in size. 115 hotels, condos and B&B's to be exact and a whopping 53,00 rooms.

What's even more appealing about accommodations in Whistler, 75 % of these rooms are within 500 meters of a ski lift and the entire village is for pedestrians only. No traffic jams in the heart of Whistler. Good thing, because on an average winter day, 16,000 visitors mill about. Keep in mind, some of them are on the ski hills.
