How to Pick the Perfect Luxury Ski Hotel


There is a wealth of available information about vacation properties, full of attractive photos, slick websites, and promotional deals. Trying to navigate it all to find the perfect luxury ski hotel for you can be overwhelming.

First, decide what you want out of your vacation: Do you want perfect and challenging ski conditions, excellent spa, great night-life entertainment, or ski-in and ski-out options? What type of property do you prefer, bed and breakfast, chalet, condo, or hotel? Keeping in mind what is important to you will help you immediately narrow your search. Of course, quality is always important for your luxury ski hotel, so make sure the property has at least four stars.



To help you gage pricing for an area and compare properties more easily, utilize a booking engine (such as Travelocity, Hotels.com, or Orbitz) to do your initial research. When you know the numbers and make your decision, reach out to the property directly to book your stay to see if this is indeed the best deal. While you are booking, it's a good idea to ask about a loyalty program. Find out what extras and benefits the hotel offers for frequent visitors.

Map the property, to make sure it is in the area you want. That way if you want to be on the mountain, you don't book a property in the next town over, even if it is an excellent place to stay.

When doing research on luxury ski hotels, don't forget to ask the less obvious questions. Is there a side of the property that has a better view or has less noise? Is public transportation available? What are all the amenities included with the room? Sometimes simply calling the property to ask can get the best answers to these.
