“Pretty Decent”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2012

Unit 203 provided everything I'd expect for a one-bedroom condo, but nothing to impress. Adequate small kitchen. Plenty of space and closets. Room was too hot for me. I was given a phone number on checkin but there was no telephone in the unit; a call from my cellphone to the front desk had a phone delivered right away though. Short walk across the street to a skate-worthy path to the Blackcomb base. That path, and also the ski-in path, may be missing snow at some times of year, in which case it's a 5 minute walk to the slopes. A long walk (15min) to Whistler Village proper, but there's a convenient free shuttle bus that stops just outside. Front desk vacant, needed to check in at Blackcomb Lodge in the village. Unit and property very clean.

“Great location BUT room 402 needs an update”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012

We stayed for 3 nights from Dec 27-30th. The location is great But I am not sure if the whole building is like this but our room was in need of an update in a bad way especially for the money we spent (300/night). The room was to hot and the thermostat didn't work. Also the bedroom had a TV but it wasn't hooked up so unusable. The bed was in very poor condition with a big sag and in need of replacement. We will not likely be staying here again. We also had to check in across the street as there is no on site front desk. We did have a good time despite the room and the basic area is great for ski in ski out.

“OK, but better available in Whistler for same price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

We stayed in the Marquise for two nights recently. It was OK but certainly not anywhere near as nice as many of the other places we have stayed at Whistler. The main thing is how dated the entire property is - I think it was one of the earliest ones in the Benchlands and it is showing it - hallways are drab, whole place just seems run down. Kind of a sad common rec area next to pool and hot tub. Our one bedroom unit was OK - clean enough, lots of towels which was nice, beds were so so. Only the TV in the main area worked - the one in the bedroom did not. The kitchen was small but adequate though everywhere else we stay has at least a salt and pepper shaker. Location was ok - you could walk to the Aspens (5 min) and onto the ski hill. Overall, I would stay there again if my favorite places were booked but would not recommend. Shame as with a bit of updating of the whole premises and consistency in the units (as from the reviews others have found it ok) it could be a nice property.

“great location - but the hot tub is NEVER hot enough!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2011

Love staying here, but every time I visit the hot tub it is not very hot! There is no front desk to mention this to. Could someone turn it up a few degrees?

Stayed November 2011, travelled as a couple

“AVOID SUITE 506”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This is our second time using Whistler Premier to book a unit at the Marquise - two bedrooms, two bathrooms. Our last visit in 2008 was great (different unit). This time, the complete opposite.

Unit 506 is in desperate need of repair - especially the kitchen. The doors on the fridge and dishwasher need to be adjusted and then slammed in order to close. Even doing that, the fridge door didn't always stay closed. The clothes dryer does not blow hot air. The burners on the stove do not work properly. The suite is also advertised as having 2 bathrooms, one with shower only. It should be noted that the other bathroom is with tub only (no shower). We were 4 adults trying to share 1 shower. The guys ended up using the downstairs shower where the pool and spa facilities where located. Otherwise, the location, cleanliness and common areas were great.

I accept the fact that each unit is individually owned and that maintenance and updating is the owners responsibility. But, in order to be part of a rental pool, Whistler Premier should enforce a minimum standard for the unit owners.

I would stay at the Marquise again and I would use Whistler Premier again. I would also have a written guarantee ahead of time as to the condition of the unit being rented.

We at Whistler Premier want to thank you for taking the time to post this review. Since your visit in February 2011 Whistler Premier is under new ownership and management. One of the changes in how we operate is we now have a 'house manager' who ensures our standards for cleanliness and quality of units are met. They also do pre-arrival inspections to make sure all appliances and facilities are operating as they should.
