Thanks rfletche - you are the first person I have found who as actually stayed there so appreicate hearing that it isn't as good as the internet and travel agent made it sound! We had thhought it might be like Hotel Jerome in Aspen which we quite like.

We did think about staying slopeside but as 17 nights is such a long stay we thought better to be in a town if we want to take a day or 2 off from skiing.

jja34-1 - care to share any of those best restuaruants in town?

Thanks again everyone!
