Salt Lake Mountain Resorts Hotels

This is a complete facility for skiers (riders, too). It is extremely well-organized to support ski holidays. Storage, rental, repair, lift ticket, dressing room are all located on the same level, which is also the ski-out level. Ski-in is a bit trickier. When returning, you need to follow the signs on the slope to the restaurant (they want your lunch business), but those signs seem to send you onto the road. Persevere, there really is a path. Alternatively, you can ski in by skiing to the beginner's slope lift, which drops you right above the ski-out door of the hotel. There are long lines of tired kids and their parents at this lift. Some of my party used the Spa facility and were very pleased. We did not opt for the daily fee that allows use of the Spa at any time. The outdoor pool and hot tubs (3) were never over-crowded and worked quite well. The a la carte breakfast menu at the Atrium was good. There were plenty of choices including all the regulars (oatmeal, fresh fruit, pastries, coffee drinks), and enough staff to service all the early risers. We also ate at both the bar and restaurant in The Aerie (10th floor). Same menu. The bar service was a more relaxed meal. The daily sushi specials are quite exotic, especially for a ski resort. Best feature that you don't expect is complimentary shuttle service to all the Snowbird and Alta restaurants and stores. The municipal bus service between Snowbird and Alta runs on five different routes, 5-10 minute wait.

Staff couldn't be more helpful. Anytime we needed something someone was in our room in five minutes. View from the room was spectacular. Breakfast is included and is quite tasty. Can't speak about the skiing, as we prefer to ski at Brighton which is 4 minutes down the road.

Very "down to earth" place where the atmosphere was very friendly. You meet people from all over the world. Food was excellent and it was very convenient to not have to go any where else. The hot tub at the end of the day was heavenly.

Short ski trip to Snowbird, excellent mountain, great variety of runs and this hotel was warm and clean and nearby. No frills, nothing fancy or modern but perfectly clean with friendly staff to accommodate all our needs.

We came to town for a wedding, during perhaps the hottest weekend of the year. Solitude, on top of the mountain, was a perfect 25-30 degrees cooler than down in the valley. Beautiful cabin like feel, without the cheesiness. Great off season rate, free parking, amazing pool. We did stay in a condo and it would have been nice to have more frequent room service (only stays over 4 days get room service). The pool was only open until 10, and it would have been nice to have adult hours late night, but I do understand the liability issues with doing that. Saw 4 moose (off in the distance) and ate at a cute-sie little spot only a mile down the road (silver fork lodge I believe?) Will come here again! (and again and again)...

I LOVE this resort. For a great price, we got to enjoy the huge Rockies, have a fun picnic, sit in a hot tub, swim in a cool pool, sit in a fancy steam room, and have a great time. This was a great getaway!
