Overpriced Stay with Poor Amenities and Unsafe Hot

I travel frequently for work and stay at hotels across the U.S., but after this stay, I wouldn’t return. While the lack of AC wasn’t an issue for me, the room was uncomfortably hot upon arrival and had no fan available. The in-room phone didn’t work, so I couldn’t contact the front desk. The room had a patio, but there was no furniture to enjoy it. For the price—$300 per night—I was surprised there was no complimentary breakfast or even coffee provided. Parking was an additional $30, which would be fine if it were valet or fully covered, but it was neither. The biggest disappointment was the outdoor hot tub. After a long day, I went to relax in it, but the chemical levels were so strong they burned my eyes. When I got back to my room and showered, I noticed a rash on my knee and thigh, which I believe was caused by excessive chlorine or bromine.

Mountain View's and great service!

The stay experience and hotel were really good. The carpet and furniture were a little old and needed an update. But they had late night music in the lobby and were really helpful in booking an extra day!

So-so

Decent room, comfy bed and pillows. Patio dirty, no chairs. Nice gym. Everything comes with a fee, even the coffee in AM was $3/cup and we weren’t told that - and there are resort plus parking fees additionally. Our room didn’t get cleaned then we learned you have to request it or nothing is freshened or replaced. Also not informed of that. Little surprises like that aren’t so nice. Surrounding area is beautiful, and the trails are wonderful, but the hotel is pricey for what you get.

Skip and Go To Steamboat

This is a poor value for the money. It's old, dark and gloomy for its rate. Then they hit you with a $30 resort fee and resort fee tax of almost 30% plus $30 per night to park in the garage. Not much was open in the "resort" area and the service in those two places was terrible. One patron even refusee to tip it was so bad.

The staff were absolutely amazing and made our experience the best it could have been. The hotel is very nice. We found a few dust bunnies in our room so I would have liked to see that be better. Also, we would love to have more options of food in the restaurant. I understand the hotel is going through some renovations soon so that may clear up some of these little issues.

It was fine, needs renovations and maintenance

Crested Butte doesn't really have any great hotel options so you kind of go there with lower expectations. The hotel is older and definitely in need of renovations on the exterior and interior. Everything feels very dated, older yellows, browns, orange. The furniture in the room is worn and the bed is too firm for my liking. It was a spacious room and pretty clean. There is no AC and it can get really warm. You need to keep the windows open at night and there were several loud groups outside throughout the night and it made it difficult to sleep. The second night we turned on the loud fan to drown out the loud people that were yelling at 4 am outside the hotel. Also the smoke from the wildfires is a factor when leaving windows open. The hot tubs were dated and Luke warm. With the $30 per night resort fee it would be nice to have updated hot tubs and pools and complimentary coffee and water in the lobby!! There is also a $30 parking fee per day, they shouldn't have both! $30 max total. The employees were extremely nice and the service was great. They had live music playing in the lounge which was very nice. The location is good especially if you are skiing in the winter. All in all it was fine and again not many other hotel choices in CB.
