Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside

One of two Whistler Pan Pacifics, the Mountainside wins for its slope-hugging views of the skiers swishing down to the base of Whistler Mountain. Rooms are apartment-style and on the cusp of luxury. Bank on full kitchens, fireplaces, bathrobes and balconies, but for many the (heated) outdoor swimming pool, with its surrounding vista of snow-capped peaks, is the key lure.
