Detailed Reviews
Very nice lodge. The units are quite nice. If possible, get a unit on the highest floor possible and overlooking the valley. Outstanding views. It's a short walk to the ski hill, maybe 120m. The pool and hot tub are great. ResortQuest manages the front desk and again I would recommend them for better room quality and service. Secured ski storage. Underground parking is an additional $10cdn per 24-hour period. In the summer, free parking is available at select locations along Spearhead drive, near the entrance to the underground parking. Be careful about no parking zones, as in Whistler it's strickly enforced.

Dianne Kincaid and Mark Spangler made no effort to allow television and internet use in this apartment. Indicated I had not read the small print. No intention to fix for future. Telephone and phone messages went unanswered, or replied to after excessive delays. Misinformation about entry after 10:00 was not clarified, resulting in my staying in unnecessarily. Even prison has TV. I paid HomeAway over $3000 for nine days and was shocked at this treatment.
Avoid.

Just stayed at the Marquise for 6 nights. Our one bedroom was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was small and the front desk service a bit slow on the response time but overall we had an enjoyable experience. Getting to Whistler base via free shuttle service only takes a couple of minutes. Getting to the market place where the largest grocery store is located requires changing buses (also free) which is really no big deal. If you have a car there is a great grocery store just a few minutes away called Nesters with a selection of everything you could want. The hot tub and sauna at the Marquise are really nice. The bed was comfortable and the view outside of our 4th floor window facing Blackcomb was lovely. Also the fireplace in the living room really warmed things up. I also liked the layout of the kitchen and living room - one big open room. It costs $10/day to park your car. I wanted to review the Marquise b/c no one had in quite some time. So this gives those of you sitting at home some idea of what to expect. Seems like a safe bet.

Place was bad and dirty, no air conditioning or even a fan and during summer in whistler this is extremely uncomfortable. Shower curtain was broken. Bed sheets has stain and dirty. We really had a bad experience. Theres is no front desk on site and checking in is a complete hustle. Please stay away at this place or at the very least dont stay at room 303 cause you’ll definitely regret it. Lastly dont be fooled by there advertising there is no pool or jacuzzi on site available. I choose this place because it said that it has pool and jacuzzi available because other hotel have it closed because of covid but this place said it was open unfortunately thats a big lie..

Hands-down, the worst experience you can have at Whistler. A drunken idiot has been pounding on the door of the room below us for 45min screaming for someone to let him him, security hasn’t arrived, and when we arrived in our unit all of the linens were dirty, there was trash everywhere, and there were soaked towels on the floor. I’d rather sleep in a sleeping bag filled with angry badgers than stay here again.

I have had good stays in unit 212 and 508! The building is in a great location next to Blackcomb, and has a good pool and hot tub. The hot tub is under this cute glass igloo. The halls and entry look a bit dated, and the units I stayed in were renovated and really nice!

This building is not a hotel. They are all private condos. Some of the units are managed by vacation rental services to rent out to guests. While some people are having the time of their life in a different unit in this very SAME building, my wife and I had one of the worst experiences as far as we can remember. So the difference is in the choice of management company by the property owner. which happens to be Whistler Superior Properties for this unit. The only positive thing I would say about Superior is the courteous staff at the front desk.
The owner of this unit gives me the impression he/she is skimping on every possible dollar to maintain this property. I am quite certain that Superior Properties is probably the cheapest management company around that outsourced the “cleaning” to another low cost provider who does nothing more than change the towels.
Its outrageous that for $200 a night, you are expected to take out the trash and do the dishes before you leave or you get charged extra! No wonder there was a foul stench from the kitchenette upon entering the unit. How can a property management company expect the previous guests to ensure the cleanliness of the dishes and silverware, which were not even clean!!
The amenities of the unit were at least 30 yrs old. The furnishings and fixtures were all in serious need of maintenance, not to mention there is still a VCR and cassette player in the unit. Furthermore, the oven is broken and I suspect that it has been for years and the owner never bothered to pony up to fix it.
The outsourced “cleaning” company came multiple times at 10am on checkout morning, including one time with security guards… like we were squatters in the unit who are not supposed to be there. When we told them that we had already requested late checkout, they claimed to have received no such notification. What a way to make us feel welcome and want to return.
I have seriously regretted staying at a private condo instead of a hotel. Even though there are other positive reviews of private condos, because of this experience, I have huge reservations about staying in another private condo in whistler. I would much rather take my chances in a properly managed hotel.

accomodation itself was quite fine, however, no coffee or any extra toiletries(shampoo or soap) were provided. everyone, though, has to be aware of one very important issue; managment asks you to give them credit card imprint for so-called incidentals in case if something gets damaged. they assure you that if all inspections after you will have left is fine they would just destroy the slip. I did not trust them and how right i was. I insisted on destroying the slip signed by me by myself. When i saw this slip the amount of 500.00 was already entered in all appropriate lines. As a result any, even the most minute damage,( broken glass or stain on carpet, etc), would have been charged 500.00 regardless of the actual costs. So, insist upon your departure on destroying credit card slip immediately, otherwise your vacation might turn out to be very very expensive

This place is not a hotel and I was never under the impression that it was a hotel! I don't know what people are moaning about. It's basically people's own vacation homes. It's all self catering you are just hiring an apartment. Yes you have to make your own food, take out the garbage, make your bed, clean the dishes etc. Fair enough you can go and stay in the Hilton or whatever but if you're wanting to get in with the locals and just enjoy the holiday on a bit of a budget why not come here then spend your money on more experiences.
Whistler is crazy beautiful!!

Three snowboarders stayed in unit #104 - we are not high maintenance and do not require anything fancy in terms of amenities. We wanted something close to the Whistler Village and something with some space - neither of which occurred. This was by far the worst hotel I have stayed in, ever. For the following reasons:
1. This is not a "hotel" - this is a private condo rental. Meaning each unit is managed by one of seven different property management companies (if you are staying here - make sure you know which managaement property manages your unit, this will save you a migraine when the bus finally gets you up to the village. When we got to the village we were under the assumpton that we would check in at the front desk like every other hotel in the world, but instead our bus driver had to call 7 different offices to figure out which management company manged our unit).
2. There is nobody working the front desk. There is no room service. The vending machines don't work and beep continuously begging for someone to fix them (particularly troublesome considering that is the only option for a drink if you do not want to wait for a bus...).
3. Although you are within walking distance to one of the Blackcomb lifts, you are a 15-20 minute bus ride from EVERYTHING else (including a cup of coffee in the morning).
4. If you find yourself skiing Whistler and end up in the Creekside Village at the end of the day - there is no bus back to the Upper Village and it will be a $20+ cab ride back to the hotel.
5. They charge you $50/hr. to clean the unit upon departure - so you need to make sure everything is clean before departing (by now you should be starting to wonder what you are actually paying for....)
6. The office where you check-in/check-out is a 20-minute bus ride followed by a 20-minute walk away from the unit. (NOTE: in our experience, the check-out time was 10:00AM - so 2 of us navigated our way to the office to drop off the keys while the third guy stayed with the luggage. Our airport shuttle was to pick us up at the Marquise at 10:30AM. Before we even made it back to the room from dropping the keys off, housekeeping had showed up to clean the room and the front desk was calling to make sure we were leaving. This was the only time we heard from the property management company or saw a single employee of the hotel the entire time we were there. It kinda left me with the impression that they couldn't wait for us to leave.)
7. You are responsible to dispose of all of your own garbage, recycling, and do the dishes. We did all of this - except we could not find a dumpster anywhere in the unit to dispose of the trash so we left it in an oversized garbage can across the hall in the laundry room. We went to dinner, came back, and found all of our trash dumped in front of the door with a nasty note pointing us to the dumpster. Makes me wonder why they didn't just take the trash to the dumpster like any other hospitality company in the world.
8. The units are dated and could really use some maintenance.
9. They left us with 6 towels for three people over 5 nights - and ignored our requests for more.
10. The bed is terribly uncomfortable. The pull-out couch is tiny - not big enough for two people at all.
11. The hot tub is tiny and was always filled with children. The sauna is large enough for two people. That is hardly adequate accomodations considering the size of the hotel.
My advice to travelers would be to spend a little extra and stay in the proper Whistler Village (as opposed to the Upper Village) - everything will be within walking distance and you will not have to wait at a freezing bus stop to take a 20 minute bus anytime you want to grab a beer or cup of coffee.

If I remember correctly, I believe it was $16 per day for secured underground parking?!
However, there is free parking on the surrounding streets ! The latter info was not disclosed to us when we registered!
