What is Travellers’ Choice?
Tripadvisor gives a Travellers’ Choice award to accommodations, attractions and restaurants that consistently earn great reviews from travellers and are ranked within the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor.
Imagine you could stay in a boutique hotel but only pay for the part of it you actually use. At Pangea, that’s what we created – designer pod accommodation that’s affordable, central, and social. It’s a hub where guests can meet like-minded travelers, but still have their own personal space at the end of the day. Best of all, we put it right in the heart of Whistler’s iconic village.
This summary was created by AI, based on 63 recent English reviews.

The Pangea Pod Hotel, according to many travelers, is known for its cozy, unique atmosphere and prime location, perfect for exploring Whistler. Guests commend the cleanliness of the rooms and hotel, and the friendly, professional service. The sleeping pods come with built-in fans providing white noise, although some guests warn of potential noise from the bar.
Many travelers deem it value for money, but a few mention possible hidden charges and seasonal price fluctuations. Some guests have expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of certain amenities and the room lockout during cleaning hours.

I booked breakfast for eight days in writing, agreed and paid the price shown, but when i queried why it didn’t appear in my confirmation email I got the strangest of replies as to why it wasn’t included and that the matter was closed 'Yes, your original email asked for breakfast, but since the original reservation did not include breakfast, nor was the credit sufficient enough to cover even the base accommodation portion, it wasn't included.'...

The dining area is a great set up that allows for as much social interaction as you’re comfortable with... There was excellent coffee, drinks and food on demand... The hotel is placed in a convenient location for access to the chairlifts and a fairly central area to the village... On a positive note, the space felt like a cozy cave that was dark and quiet with just enough privacy... The toilets were separated from the showers and changing rooms to allow space to get dressed... There were lavatory sinks as well for brushing teeth, washing hands etc... There’s just enough amenities to be comfortably minimal... I’m embarrassed to say, but comfort is more of a priority than cost...

...A 3 minute walk from grocery store, gondola, pharmacy, and plenty of restaurants around. There is an info booth run by whistler volunteers who can help with wayfinding and what else to do in whistler village right in the main intersection... Right across the street, there is a fantastic bakery... The pods linens are comfortable and the pillows are nice and fluffy... There is an outlet with two USB inputs to charge and 2 regular plugs... The curtain is quite good to keep the light out so if you like it dark, it's quite good... If you ever need more towels or more garbage bags for your pod, the main desk will provide... When you are staying at the pod hotel, the lounge is free to use for you... You can also ask for hot water if you want to make some cup ramen... There are also 2 bathrooms at the end of the lounge if your room is inaccessible at the time due to their 13:00-16:00 cleaning hours... 2 for locking up your alpine equipment (locker + cable) and 1 for the room (locker for suitcase and other stuff)... 3 bathrooms and 3 showers (shampoo and body wash included in the showers)... There are also multiple sinks and mirrors around thee rooms... Garbage bins and 2 change rooms are also in each room...

Great experience, the pods are spacious and comfortable and the facilities are very clean. I enjoyed having an apres drink after a days skiing and the bar was a great place to meet people to do things in the evening... Pangea is in a perfect location and everything is within easy reach...

...I booked breakfast for eight days in writing, agreed and paid the price shown, but when i queried why it didn’t appear in my confirmation email I got the strangest of replies as to why it wasn’t included and that the matter was closed 'Yes, your original email asked for breakfast, but since the original reservation did not include breakfast, nor was the credit sufficient enough to cover even the base accommodation portion, it wasn't included.'... So you can have a hot POD or a slightly cooler one filled with the hum of fans... The good Cheap accommodation, cheap food and beer, convenient for the Whistler Gondolas, bars restaurants and bus stops... The mattress was OK and pillows were OK...

First time staying in a PODS hotel in Whistler Vancouver, the experience is amazing… (better than Japan capsule PODS) friendly, one stop shop for breakfast, happy hour drinks, location is the best, 3mins walk to gondola) big compliment to a lady called katharina she’s helpful, friendly, nothing was too much for her, always wear a beautiful smile on her face. This is one of the most memorable ski trip for me so thank you for your hospitality... Many bar and restaurants around including ski hire &rental...

The staff are very helpful and friendly, if arriving prior check in, bags could be kept in storage room. Showers, washrooms and pod room are kept clean on a daily basis... The bed in the pod is very comfortable and the doona keeps you really warm...

Pangea Pod Hotels is in the perfect location and is great valued for money... But the pod is cool, cosy and creates a perfect hybrid sense of privacy in a shared space...

...Location was right in the center of the village and easily walkable to any where else... Had drinks both nights in the "living room" area which overlooked the village and had a great time chatting with the friendly staff... Bed was very comfortable for both of us, and privacy was not an issue with all other guests being respectful of individual pods... Great experience at a solid price, will come again if I travel through!...

An incredibly stupid concept to save a few bucks. Privacy entirely dependent on your pod mates—and way too many of those. You can’t stand up in your pod. My experience is you have to go downstairs to 1) change your clothes, 2) wash, 3) go to the bathroom. IMHO, a good old fashioned cash grab. The good things—clean, organized. Oh, and they provide a towel.

Cozy pod, room temp perfect and staff are awesome and chill. Looking forward to my next visit. Parking was easy but could use some EV chargers or an electrical outlet to plug in one’s own charging cable!

Pillows were comfy, bed was comfy, felt very cozy. My only complaint is I found it a bit hot when I went to bed and it was quite empty yet they put me next to two other people… not sure why you wouldn’t spread people out a bit of it’s possible.

Hi Rachel, Thanks for staying with us for a night, and for your comments. Our system does automatically assign pods – there's no human involvement – though your suggestion is an excellent one!

And if we are fortunate enough to welcome you back, please don't forget to book direct at pangeapod.com/bookings for the best rates guaranteed (if you ever see a better rate we'll beat it!) and a complimentary drink from the bar.

Needed a quick and cheap spot to lay my head for the night, being an impromptu stay in Whistler away from family to get some R+R. This was kind of perfect -- unique, friendly atmosphere, and right in the middle of the village. I was going to be out and about most of my time, so really just needed a place to sleep. Bed was cozy, I wasn't bothered with any noise, and staff were friendly. I'd definitely consider it again if I was travelling solo. I think there's a hefty surcharge for couples sharing a pod, so might not make sense to do it with my partner if I'm back.

I’ve always wanted to stay here, & was not disappointed. You can’t beat the location, staff are all super friendly & helpful, the cafe / bar is great, rooms are extremely clean & the pods themselves are perfectly sized & have the essentials. Will definitely be staying here again!

Great place to go! My wife and I felt welcomed and comfortable. Besides that, it is a great cost-benefit. We received a free-beverage coupon each after the check-in. There is a parking lot too for their guests.

Stayed here for one night- first time at pod hotel. Check in was easy even without reservation. If you book directly with them you get a free drink 🍻. Area with pods , including the washroom and showers was clean. ( shower was clogged and almost flooded the area). Sleeping in the pod was ok - everything you need is there. For one night stay I m happy with the value and experience. I'm not sure what this place looks like in the busy season,winter boots, wet dirty floors , ... Advice: bring 2 locks, check in is 16:00 check out 10:00( no flexibility even during the dead season), bring slippers , ear plugs.

Comfortable bed and clean environment. Quite upstairs. Downstairs they have nice common space as well and cheap drinks. I suggest getting the bigger pods if you travel with a suitcase. Otherwise the smaller ones totally do
