Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
At the base of Peak 9, steps from the Quicksilver lift and five minutes from Main Street.
The rooms
Bedrooms keep things simple with fresh contemporary finishes. Double-king options give ski groups plenty of space for winter gear.
The hot tubs and gym
Two hot tubs sit on the fifth-floor courtyard under string lights, and the gym looks straight out at the mountains.
Bar
The Carter
Leather barstools and a shuffleboard table fill the lounge, warmed by brass chandeliers and a double-sided fireplace.
At the table
Edwin cooks over wood fire beside floor-to-ceiling mountain windows, and Canary mixes drinks behind a sliding panel.
How it began
The hotel started out in 1985 as The Great Divide Lodge, spending decades as a DoubleTree before a complete 2024 overhaul.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
