Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch is really good. I have not stayed at the others. Have a great trip.

Thanks everybody!
Indeed I read about the crazy cancellation / late arrival charges at StR Aspen..

@CPRich - so for great skiing you would recommend Vail or Beaver Creek over Aspen I guess?

Westin Riverfront is pretty much my favorite hotel worldwide. RC Bachelor Gulch is nicer, but I’ve had more stays at the Westin. There is a gondola you can catch at the Westin that takes you part way up the mountain, and they have a shuttle you can take up to Beaver Village as well. Vail Village for me is kind of bleh, but mostly because it feels like a fake Swiss ski village, so I prefer the Westin and Beaver Creek personally.

Sitting in one of the infinity edge hot tubs at the Westin looking out on the Eagle River after a day of skiing with a drink is pretty nice.

Westin Steamboat is also nice as well. While not Bonvoy, there’s the Hilton GV Valdoro lodge I’ve been meaning to check out in Breckinridge.

if you want to consider Lake Tahoe (more beautiful IMHO but snow can be finicky), the Marriott Timber Lodge at Heavenly Village and RC Northstar are excellent choices as well. Northstar is my preferred ski destination, but isn’t quite as large a mountain as Vail or Beaver Creek. But, and this is an excellent but, if you stay at the Timber Lodge on South Shore Lake Tahoe you can pick up a multi-day Epic pass that gets you access to Heavenly, Northstar, and Kirkwood (which is excellent and typically devoid of the crowds that can descend on the Lake Tahoe ski slopes).

theres also the Westin at Mammoth Village which is an ok hotel on a gigantic mountain, but it’s isolated from major airports (10 hours from SFO, 6+ from LAX).

Lastly (sorry for the edits), but there’s the Equinox near Stowe in Vermont. Decent skiing, but not CO or CA equivalent, but a really, really cool historical hotel.

i think there is also a Marriott (or Marriott vacation club) in Park City, as well as the StR Deer Valley but I’ve got no personal experience at those hotels. One I have been looking at is the Hotel Park City, which looks pretty awesome (giant rooms, excellent hotel location) that’s part of Marriotts Autograph Collection.

no matter what, you should be in for an awesome trip.

Be very *very* *VERY* careful about cancellation and late arrival penalties at some ot the Colorado properties. There are horror stories from StR Aspen etc. and many seem to have the same management.
