If you're looking for a view from the top - well, almost the top - this hotel was the one for you. Check in at the base of the mountain, then take a gondola ride to the hotel. Multiple dining options, very friendly and helpful staff, and a great way to enjoy a ski resort - even it you don't ski.
Only a few MINOR downsides - view from the room looks unobstructed on their website, but in reality, if your room is on the front of the building, you are staring straight into a working chairlift... a minor detail unless you are there to sit on your hotel room's balcony to enjoy a view of the mountainside. Also, don't rely on taking great pictures from the gondola. The front window of car we rode in was so filthy you literally could not see anything through it and many of the cars looked like they hadn't been hosed down in years. I imagine it is hard to keep them perfectly clean but these were awful.
And a "funny" thing - if you want to hike, they provide free bear spray. We chose to sit, enjoy the cocktails and scenery, and let others hike with the bears :-)
