Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and accommodating for my serious asthma issue, although a bit scatterbrained. The service was generally attentive, but some aspects like putting on ski boots were missed. The location was stunning but a bit far from other activities. The dining experience was just okay and quite expensive. Facilities were good overall.
My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were abundant with amenities, nicely furnished, and so well appointed. While the dining experience was a bit overpriced and the breakfast options were limited, the service was exceptional, and the location was superb for a relaxing mountain getaway.
Staying at this hotel was quite nice and comfortable, with excellent bedding quality and cozy features. However, the live band playing directly below the suite at 7 pm was unexpected and a bit disruptive. The service was extremely attentive, but there was a small issue with wrong information provided to titanium members. The location is fantastic for outdoor activities, especially hiking, but some disposable items used due to the abundance of children and pets may not suit everyone. The dining experience was good overall, although some items were a bit overpriced.
