The many times that I’ve stayed at a hotel or lodge or condominium near a lift or a trail, essentially “ski-in ski-out“, over the past 60 years, based on firsthand observation, the expectation on the part of many guests is that ski boots can be worn in and out of the room. Ski-in ski-out properties invariably charge a significant premium, part of that can easily go toward more frequent carpet replacement. Some properties have trays in the room specifically for boots and skis. At this hotel it’s very easy to wear ski boots in and out of the hotel through a side entrance and never wear ski boots in the lobby.

Lift tickets were often available in lodging facilities 20 and 30 years ago. Perhaps the shift from one-time use paper/plastic tickets to chip/scannable card tickets and now Bluetooth smart phone tickets rendered that unfeasible.
