I love the grand scale of the hotel, the sharp Air Force influenced architecture and cool AF interior theme. The staff are so professional and very competent from the front desk to restaurant staff and spa. My salt therapy massage was top notch and the facility pristine, lovely and peaceful. Lounging in the after treatment area with a Prosecco in hand and a magnificent view of the mountains was worth the price of admission! A must experience. Even the pool was open on this cool November evening. On my last night I enjoyed delicious chicken wings and a cocktail at the stellar bar and then hung out by the central fire chatting with guests. The room’s are super well put together and comfortable. Fresh bright linens and quiet. I will stay again for sure.

Absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Polaris! Beginning with it being right off the highway, allowed easy and fast access to and from our destinations. The staff at the front desk were amazing and the room with the mountains view was breathtaking. The room and hotel are impeccably clean and offer a lot of amenities. We had brunch at Pamela’s, drinks and wings at the lobby “Thunderbird” bar and great sushi dinner at the Aviator Bar on the ninth floor. I would highly recommend and definitely return the Polaris
