Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside | Best ski hotels in North America

"Set just yards from the Blackcomb Excalibur Gondola, the Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside is the older, slopeside sister of the Pan Pacific Whistler Village Centre. The all-suite hotel (all rooms have kitchens) boasts fantastic views of the Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, the best of which can be found in the upper-level suites. There are more splendid views outside, from the heated saltwater pool and two hot tubs. The hub of the hotel is the Dubh Linn Gate Irish Pub, famed for its signature steak and Guinness pie, and fish and chips. It has live music most evenings. " - Nicola Iseard
