What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Excellent stay every time! Staff is amazing! Shout out for front desk: Jette, Courtney and Danielle; Steven at breakfast and Ryan our server at The View for dinner. Everything is clean and fresh. Fantastic real food breakfast buffet; wonderful dinner and cocktails at the attached restaurant. Every detail is in order and top notch.”
“Great staff great food. Wished we stayed longer but we had another hotel booked for Saturday as we had a basketball tournament didnt wanna drive up early morning Saturday so we decided to come up a day early we got this hotel. After staying at both hotels wished our group chose this hotel. They had everything you need there other hotel didnt have everything told the coach next year we should definitely book here”
“This is a beautiful hotel with fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. The room was clean, the bed was extremely comfortable with plenty of pillows, the coffee was delicious & so was breakfast. I wish that I could’ve stayed longer!”
“Hotel views were beautiful, rooms were nicely sized and comfortable. I would just stay away from their shampoos and conditioners, I’m usually okay with whatever hotels supply but this shampoo left my hair horribly hard and frizzy. So they can definitely improve that, not a big deal I guess. Breakfast was the standard, but still good for the price at the hotel. Overall it was a good deal!”
