The best lodge in the area for sure!

Incredible hotel with many amenities. We looked at staying at the other lodges in this area and once we arrived we we thrilled we stayed here. The location is amazing with an incredible scenery. It has a flowing river right next to it which adds to the ambiance. It also has a path that directly connects to the Snowbird Center where all of the activities are. Also, the pool and hot tub views are like no other!

Awesome location! We valeted for $20 a day but a free lot was offered too. They were awesome and super helpful with holding our luggage a few times. We were able to check in early which we were grateful for! The atrium was great, but it was closed at 5pm one evening and one afternoon around 12. Super bummed about that. The hot tub was shut down one night but seemed to resume normal operations the next day. Seventy one was cool. Got the vibe they’re very understaffed—unfortunately the service/food time reflected this. But as a previous server, I totally get it so all good. Overall a great hotel! Not a ton of food/bar options in Snowbird but it’s a small town. If you’re here to ski, this is the spot. Book early, they fill up!

The property was fine. The parking isn’t easy. The restaurants should stay open later then 10pm, especially the bar area should least stay open tell 1:00am. Overall it’s a great resort.

Amazing spa

I went for a solo staycation spa day and truly enjoyed the hotel and spa. Only downside was trying to sleep in and they were doing avalanche control at 6:45, that will wake you up quickly. And the maid knocked on the door every 20 minutes starting at 8:00 am. But, I highly recommend that spa to anyone!

We love coming up to Snowbird for a local's staycation but I don't know why we keep paying so much for really run down rooms. The furniture is old and outdated and many of the screws are loose, maybe housekeeping just carry a screw driver and tighten things up? Is that really too much to ask? But the real kicker was that the bathtub wouldn't drain so we didn't end up using the shower/tub at all because who wants to shower/bathe in gross water knee deep? When I told the front desk they didn't seem to care beyond "sorry." Really, that's it? We pay a lot for your rooms, and not only are they old but now we can't even bathe in it? Wow, turn me over and just steal my money...oh wait, you already did.

Quiet, spacious, beautifully situated property. Midweek in summer many activities not available though. Reservation policy for day passes to spa ridiculous, as were reservation requirements for the two restaurants on site with deposits that could be lost if changes made within 24 hours. The Oriental and Native American rugs decorating the atrium were also missing - hope they are just being cleaned. Updated rooms much appreciated! Front desk staff very helpful with check-in and late check-out. Atrium restaurant should have stayed open for lunch - no lunch options in the hotel during the week - and the trek to the Snowbird Center is not handicapped accessible for my mother. I had to walk over and bring sandwiches back (which were good - General Grits!) Handicapped parking convenient - much appreciated.

Stunningly terrible service, 0-10 stars, AVOID!

Absolutely awful stay at this supposed 4-star property. The property is beautiful and the massive atrium impressive, but that's about all the upscale benefit you will get. The room was spartan and cheap, worse there was no heat. The entire heating system (electric baseboard) was off. The room never got above 63 degrees, freezing the whole time. And we were awakened at 8:15 AM by housekeeping banging on the door and then barging into the room. Our group dinner at the pricey rooftop Aerie Restaurant was an unbelievable disaster. Despite there seeming to be adequate staff and the place only about half full, our group of 10 got a round of drinks, but then wasn't able to even get an appetizer or food order in for almost another hour the service was so awful. We then, after leaving our table to walk in to the adjacent bar to be able to get another round of drinks ourselves, waited another hour for food to start showing up, but the entrees were served in serial fashion a few at a time, with the last entree served so late that it was simply boxed up for the person to just take to the room after over 3 hours of waiting. We literally were getting ourselves water and cutlery and glasses and whatnot from the server's stations. If you are going to drop almost $400 per night per room and $150 or so for dinner and drinks don't even think about doing it here. Stay at Alta and come on down and sit in the super-cool atrium with a boxed lunch and a tall boy and save your money!
