Pangea Pod Hotel

Booked a last minute trip to Whistler at Pangea. Overall it was well worth it. The space was clean, though there were several co-Pod-people in my room, they were quiet and any ambient noise was easily drowned out by the in Pod fan, very thoughtful! My only slight disappointment was for my last 2 nights I moved to a lower level Pod because I fractured my shoulder mountain biking and couldn't climb the ladder to my top deck Pod. I appreciate moving bed comes at some cleaning cost to the hotel, but I was surprised that I was charged the full price to move, even as I explained with arm in sling why I needed to move! It wouldn't have cost much to earn some browny points there. Anyways I'd happily do it all again :)

This is one of the worst sleeping situations of any hostel I’ve stayed in. We were excited for the pod situation and looked forward to our stay, but check in was chaotic and we got almost no sleep. Pros: -clean -modern -decent food/drink offerings -friendly staff Cons: -nowhere secure to store your luggage or belongings. The options they provide are not secure at all, if someone actually wanted to steal something it would be easy. -automated check in, which told us our bed wasn’t ready yet, despite it being 7PM. -music blasting in the hallways, which you can definitely hear in the rooms. What kind of sleeping establishment blasts music in the hallways..? -bed were basically thin futons. fine as long as you’re a back sleeper, but if you’re a side sleeper good luck. -in the pod rooms, sound travels really well so you can hear every little thing happening. -doors into the pod rooms, the internal bathrooms, etc. don’t have soft-close so they’re slamming all night long every time someone uses the bathroom or comes/goes from the pod rooms. -no community hang out space, just a restaurant space. I think the amount of noise insides the pods from people talking all night could be avoided if there were a nice space to hang out elsewhere like most hostels have. -so hot in the pods and the “fans” are mostly just for white noise, because there’s almost no airflow from them. Overall, very overpriced.

Location is great as its in the centre of the village as well as it being easy to find! Although the rooms are private and a cool experience, I wouldn't recommend this for a solo traveller as there isn't much of a social side to it plus you do have to pay extra for appliances e.g hair dryer. I definitely think it's a great place if you are having a short stay but for a solo traveller/backpacker who's staying for a while I wouldn't recommend!

I’ve had horrible hostel experiences in europe and so I was quite curious about this place. Great experience! I would highly recommended staying here. My Pod was very clean and the details were thought through for utility and comfort. I also enjoyed the bar— it was cozy and had a really great view of the village. The location of Pangea cannot be beat. Great job and thanks so much!

Excellent hostel-vibe hotel. Bunks are comfortable and roomy for pod-style beds. The location can't be beaten - it's within a two minute walk to the Excelsior Gondola at the base of Whistler village. Great store for your ski gear, too. Save yourself a bit of money and don't get breakfast included - the food is better other places with better value. Totally would recommend and would stay again.
