    Visited June 2025 We only stayed one night...but Elevation Hotel & Spa made it count. From the second we pulled up, the team nailed it. The valets were friendly, the front desk was efficient and kind, and the crew at the lobby bar made us feel right at home (and yes, they pour a great drink). You can just feel when a place gets hospitality right. The hotel itself is beautiful--mountain lodge style, but elevated (pun fully intended). Think cozy meets classy, with wood, stone, and those Colorado touches that make you want to light a fire, sip some wine, and cancel your plans. Our room was pristine, quiet, and had the kind of bedding you write home about. The mattress was a little soft, which might not be for everyone, but with those luxe linens? I slept like I had no responsibilities. Bonus: the views from our window were nothing short of postcard-worthy. We're already talking about coming back for a longer stay. One night wasn't nearly enough.

    So this will be a lengthy review because I have quite a bit to say about this hotel and my stay. So getting there from Denver was super easy and the drive was absolutely stunning. Arriving and check in was NOT easy. I arrived and your GPS will take you to the lower level which is where you drive up and there is what looks like a check in desk. Well it's not and no where does it tell you that check in is somewhere else. It's so confusing. VERY confusing. So for anyone who reads this, check in is ON THE 2nd FLOOR. The lady could tell I was flustered and checked me in down there anyways. Check in process was super easy and the bell hop was super nice and took our luggage immediately to our room. Frustration number two was parking. So they thought my truck would be to tall for their parking garage so they suggested I go to the outside parking which has one sign but after that there is literally no clear signage on where hotel guest can park because most of the parking says either for this establishment or tow away zone. Mind you I drove 5 hours to get here so I was ready to get out of the truck and just go to my room and relax. So after circling for 5 mins and still no clear signage on where hotel parking was I said screw it I'll take the chance on the low clearance on their parking garage because at that point I was getting frustrated. Thank god my truck cleared the height. The parking garage is super tight but it worked. The lobby is super cute. They have a bar with live music and a Mexican restaurant, two outdoor hot tubs along with an indoor pool and an indoor hot tub, a ski shop and a spa that offers so much. They also have games you can play with your family. So I loved that. Cute hotel. Made it to my room, super out dated. Nothing modern but it was still a cute and very spacious and I mean spacious room. The tv was the oldest flat screen I've seen and the remote to get it to work you have to literally smash the buttons super hard to change the channel. Our room also came with a balcony that was a valley view. Loved that. Only suggestion I would suggest is have some chairs out there to enjoy the view. Our room also came with a couch and a kitchenette with minimal supplies but it does the job. Bathroom was very small but I loved the tub. Our toilet had clogged and it took 4 phone calls and an hour and half later before anyone showed up to fix it and the hotel was not busy. When I went to take a bath the plug wouldn't work so I had to use a wash cloth to clog it fill up the bath. I didn't dare call the front desk because I didn't feel like waiting another hour to get that fixed. When I kept asking for the manager the front desk kept telling me they would call me back they never did, only to find out there was no manager on duty so they kept lying and were just so unprofessional. The bed was a king and was super comfy and so was the pillows. They were perfect for me! I did end up eating at the hotel restaurant and 0/10. Food was horrible! I got shrimp tacos they were so chewy and had no flavor, chips and queso, chips were good but the queso was so thick and tasted off and I got the tres leches that was dry and nothing like what I'm use to having. Overall I paid 76 dollars for those three things and was not even worth $10 bucks. The staff at the restaurant were super nice though like super nice! Parking is $30 a day. So keep that in mind. Pros to my stay, bed was comfy, it was literally right behind the snow lift so you can walk to it in less than 2 mins, tons of little shops and some food spots and liquor and convince store and 2 min walk to the shuttle that takes you into town which is free and it runs every 15 mins. Besides the front desk people that weren't that great everyone else that works there is amazing. The day I checked out a manager did call me and she was super nice and made things right. She didn't charge me for my parking and took all the food charges off my account which was just that one. Overall I don't think I would stay here again. Just too many cons for me especially driving 5 hours and I paid $373 for one night. I'm okay with the price I just expect a finer experience. Had I known this I would of stayed with my original stay I had booked for $150 at one of their Inns in town that didn't look to shabby. Shout out though to the manager for making it right and getting back to me!!

    Nice big room with kitchenette

    5 Stars No Doubt! We LOVED staying here. We had stayed here in the summer before... but winter is PRIME. It's literally a step from the lift. You can't get any closer if you tried. It's definitely the best option in CB! The staff was incredible! Shout out to Alex at check in - he was amazing and said he had only been there for 6 weeks?! Would not have guessed - he was awesome! The bar José is open ALL DAY and they were just breaking ground on a lobby bar. It's a bit outdated - but honestly, it's so Crested Butte. It's not for the luxurious it's for the adventurous and that's what makes the town so amazing. I could care less if there was even a TV in the room - we were barely in there. Rooms are so spacious with balconies. We are already planning our next trip here!

    this place is a joke. I have never seen a more incompetent food and beverage program. It is all based on QR codes eliminating interaction between the customer and the waiter. Essentially a glorified McDonald's. You order from a picture on your phone and a delivery boy brings it, except no one has the same tables - the right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing. It took six waiters and 30 minutes to get one drink and the tables next to me has the same issue. You cant order a specific drink you can order Only what they have in their manifest on your phone. If you want something special you may get a waiter to take your order but somebody else might deliver it to a different table, which is what happened to me six waiters in a half an hour to get one drink - no kidding Room service is no better you have to go on your phone to order something and every time you have to put your credit card in despite the fact that they have it at the front desk. You can't tip anybody except with cash which is ironic since they trying to be so digital with the QR c idea but force you to use cash that nobody carries anymore The pool is the size of most resorts hot tubs and was so cold when I was there I could not go in it. The hot tub inside is stuck in a corner and wasn't working, the two outside overlook a parking lot iand are standard small four person hot tubs The balconies are horrible and a V-shaped which enhances conversation to the uncomfortable stage as it echo's around. They don't even put furniture out there - you have to drag your furniture from inside the room if you want to sit on the balcony they are so poorly run there was nobody at the bell stand because I saw our Bellman from check in painting the lobby. They can't hire a contractor? The lobby areas look like the Westin O'Hare very corporate yellow mustard and gold colors and no Sense of being in the mountains. No windows The rooms are nice and the front desk staff but I would suggest staying just about anywhere else

    Breakfast served by the hotel, for $5 and $300+ per night, you too can experience this!

    See all

    The best part of the hotel is it's location, right at the base of the mountain where the ski lift is.

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and rented out the Teocalli King Room. The sheets and bathrobes were nice, and the stand-in shower was excellent. It was quite cozy with plenty of room, storage space, and amenities to make it as comfortable of a stay as possible. Not to mention the direct access to the hot tub was a plus, which was a great addition. The host, Chris, is a superb cook and prepares a high-quality breakfast every morning of a variety of delicacies. I'm not even a fan of eggs but his Southwestern frittata has made me a believer now. He's very attentive to allergies as well and will always do his best to accommodate. My wife has a severe gluten allergy and he was always sure to supply a substitute. The only other thing he hosted regularly was beer tastings at 5, which we were unable to attend due to our plans, but he does have a nice selection of brews stored for it. The views from the B&B are great and it's located just a short walk from Elk Ave, where you'll find all the main shops and restaurants. Even closer is the bus stop that'll take you up the mountain. Overall, I cannot recommend Purple Mountain B&B for your stay. For the price point, the amenities, and level of service you're getting, it can't be beat. Definitely staying here again when we come back some day.

We stayed in the Crested Butte room which was cozy and reasonably priced; also took the cruiser bikes for a spin around town that are provided for our use. We LOVED our stay and absolutely will return the next time we head to Crested Butte.

So, not only did the master bedroom not have a door, essentially the master bathroom did not have a door either. Please look at the property pics that show the bathtub in the master bathroom. During the stay we requested that the door be installed and they agreed but never got it done. The door was in the closet but the hinge hardware was missing so we could not hang it ourselves. The property description needs to state clearly that the master bedroom (master bathtub room) does not have a door so that guests in the living room below can hear every whisper and can also walk up the stairs to sneak up on you bathing, sleeping, getting dressed, etc. as there is no door! I left a 4 star review on VRBO saying that the property would be a 5 star if only the master bedroom door was installed. Kathy Reid then left a retaliatory 3 star renter review. So, in summary the property is misrepresented and be careful leaving a critical review on VRBO as they will then leave a revenge rating.

And it's not just a limited amount of time... We have been trying to get hot water for many hours. Now there are a lot of other issues that I will list but a ski resort not having hot water is unacceptable. Let's look at some other things. Attached are pictures of the drawers. Would you put your clothes in here? We booked a place that's supposed to have kitchen facilities. The kitchen facilities consisted of a small refrigerator and a coffee maker. The layout prevents access from one side of the bed. Vacasa is also useless. Before we checked in on February 11th, they sent a million notifications with useless information and incorrect information. They have been useless in getting anything rectified. They keep saying the right tickets but I don't know what the tickets are for.. because there's never anything that happens from them. Not that this matters, but the decor is circa 1976. When we came in yesterday, the door to the closet was hanging loose. To their credit someone came immediately and fixed it. Perhaps I would have been better off in a hostel!
