Looking at the reviews the ratings don't match the experience offered at Limelight. Even as a Marriott rewards member I went here instead of the Westin which sits just above here. First perks and value is greater here. Free breakfast, EV charging, bike rentals, 2 hour Audi Etron demo, peloton bikes in the gym ect. Just the V charging pays for the reasonable valet fee. I appreciate the parking fee is not an arm and a leg like some luxury places charge, just because they can. Reason two, this is the newest property come to mammoth, they offer more modern decor and the place is beautiful and chic, even at the standard room which is almost more like a suite. Who ever designed this place deserves an A+. I definitely want to stay at some of the other limelight hotels which are located mainly on other ski resort areas. One more thing if you have a dog, you'll love this place, a lot of people had dogs who stayed here. I think they are allowed every but the dinning room. Complimentary breakfast was a notch or two better than your free standard breakfast. Some more added perks to the breakfast were things like overnight oats, espresso machine that serves speciality drinks ect. Service was excellent if something doesn't go as planned or they fall short the staff is very accommodating and strive for a high level service. They treated me with a level of value and respect that you typically have to earn through being a loyal guest. If you're the type of person who notice the loose hinge on the toilet seat, then maybe you won't be impressed, but I think majority of people will enjoy this place. read more

Coming off a recent stay at another Chase Edit hotel that completely fell flat, our experience at the Limelight Hotel last season made me appreciate true hospitality all the more, which made me want to write this review. From top to bottom, the property is stunning, brand new, beautifully decorated, and impeccably maintained. But what really set this stay apart was the out-of-this-world service. Thoughtful Accommodations & Extra Perks: We booked a 4-bed bunk room because, for some reason, it was the cheapest option, even though there were only two of us. At check-in, the front desk manager asked if it would be alright to swap us into a standard 2-bed room since they had larger parties arriving and could really use the bunk rooms. I had zero issues with it, but the manager still threw in a $50 property credit for the "inconvenience". Such an over-the-top, much-appreciated gesture! Combined with the $100 Chase Edit credit, we had $150 to use toward a delightful dinner at the restaurant. Unbeatable Location: The hotel is conveniently located right across the street from the Village Gondola, making getting over to the slopes an absolute breeze. Next-Level Late Check-Out & Service: This completely sold me on the property. When checking in, we mentioned we were only staying a single night to board the next morning and would be driving out afterward. The manager totally understood the assignment: he immediately set a late check-out at 12:00 PM and even offered us access to the spa to freshen up if we got back later than that. The next morning, I stopped by the desk just to confirm the timing so housekeeping wouldn't clean our rooms before we returned, and the morning manager extended it to 1:00 PM! That extra cushion allowed us to board all morning, grab lunch, come back, shower, pack up, and head out completely stress-free. The entire staff was outstanding. The Valet Mix-Up (with a Silver Lining): This could have gone either way, but it ended with a laugh. When we arrived, valet grabbed our bags, told us to leave the keys in the car, and said they'd take care of it. I didn't think much of it until checkout when I realized I never got a valet ticket. When I mentioned it, the attendant explained they had forgotten to log the name for the car the night before, so they had no idea who it belonged to and just kept it up front for safekeeping. A little scary thinking our car was just sitting there (though it was a rental, so whatever!), but when I tried to pay for parking at checkout, the charge wasn't on our room. They just brushed it off and let us go without charging us for overnight parking. The Verdict: The rooms are modern, fresh, and exceptionally comfortable. Between the gorgeous new property, the incredible staff, and service that goes above and beyond, I will 100% be back this season! read more

This was my first time staying at this hotel, and I absolutely loved it. The location is fantastic. Just a short walk from Mammoth Village, making it very convenient for exploring the area. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our stay. One of the standout amenities was the complimentary shuttle service, which provided transportation to and from the airport as well as any area of the Mammoth ski resort we wanted to access. They even welcomed us with a bottle of wine, which was a thoughtful touch. The hotel is brand new, and the design is beautiful, modern, and aesthetically pleasing. The breakfast exceeded my expectations, and the gym was much larger and better equipped than I anticipated. After a long day of snowboarding, I especially appreciated the hot tub, pool, and the body care products available for guests to use. The only minor downside was the walk required to access some of the amenities, but it was a small inconvenience compared to an otherwise wonderful experience. I would happily stay here again on my next trip to Mammoth. read more

My wife and I recently did a short trip to Mammoth Lakes region and we stayed at Limelight Mammoth. First thing to say, I can't comment on the price, my wife booked it and I think using her AMEX card she was able to redeem some credit towards a stay. I probably didn't cover everything, but it certainly helped guide our decision making and it was a good experience. Limelight Mammoth seems to be a pretty high end resort, their hotel is also connected to residences where people stay long-term. The rooms are nice and spacious. I can't speak to some of their amentities (e.g. pool or fitness center), but they did have some features: - They had some sort of partnership with Therabody (the company that makes Theragun and other personal massage products), you can check those out for a couple hours at a time based on availability. We tried some of those products, especially after a longer day of hiking and that was nice. - When we were there, there was a promotion to be able to test drive an Audi SUV, you have to schedule a little in advance, so we didn't take them up on it. - They had breakfast included which was very well done and much more than a continental breakfast. - The property was very good friendly which was an important because our dog travels with us most of the time. Dogs couldn't be in the main dining area of the restaurant but dogs could be out on their patio area which had tables, chairs, couches, loung chairs and firepits. Their parking was all valet, there was a crew of people who always seemed busy dropping off or returning peoples' vehicles. One special benefit was they have EV charging onsite for no additonal charge. When EV charging was available, that really helped us as we drove all around the area without charging hesitancy. At different times of the day the valet can be busy, so be prepared for a wait at different times of the day. We tried their restaurant one evening, also because our reservation came with some credit to be used at the restaraunt. I tried of their fried chicken sandwiches and we had a couple glasses of wine.. good wine selection. We were there in late June, which seemed like an "offpeak" time of the year. There were people but the area didn't seem as super-busy and crowded as it might be during the winter time/ski or boarding season. Limelight seems in a good location for us to get around where we needed to by car, there were also different resort restaurant/shopping areas within walking distance which again didn't feel super busy in Late June and had some good places to watch a World Cup Match. This trip was our first time in the Mammoth Lakes area, and we seemed to like it better than Lake Tahoe in the summer. We did some hiking and exploring and only scratched the surface so maybe we'll come down again sometime and if we do, we'll see what's available at Limelight. read more

It was my first time visiting Mammoth, and I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. The hotel is new, clean, and in a great location. The heated pool and two hot tubs were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The complimentary breakfast was also good. The only downside is that the hotel only offers valet parking--there's no self-parking--and it costs $35 per night, which felt a bit expensive. Other than that, everything was great. Overall, I had a very nice stay and would definitely recommend this hotel. read more

Sooooo restful! Top notch, upscale hotel. Facility (lobby, patios, guest rooms) were new and spotless. All staff were very friendly and helpful, from valets, lobby staff and housekeepers. This is a definite recommend in the Mammoth area. Reasonable price for Fall. read more

Horrible experience. To start, they don't have any parking so if you're staying for a couple days you have to valet your vehicle $35.00 per day. The valet employees are nice to you depending on the car you drive. The hotel will then charge your card $500 for incidentals on top of the price of your stay. Did not ever inform us of that until check-in. Lastly, it's very upsetting that for the price you pay, they have the audacity to deny late check-outs because they "ran out" according to Kennedy at the front desk. No accommodations. They have no issue taking your money though. Will never come back. read more

I didn't stay at the hotel, so this is just a review of the Lounge/Bar/Restaurant area. Saturday nights the lounge is taken over by the melodic jams of Nomadic Practice, a local duo that mixes guitar and dj'ing to create a unique sound. They built a groovy and light atmosphere that truly embodies Mammoth as a place. The lounge staff was super accommodating to our medium sized group and was helpful with recommendations to us all to hadn't visited the Limelight yet. Their cocktails look nicely curated, albeit quite pricey, but you're also paying for ambiance and location. I didn't eat there, but their pizza and burger looked as advertised. I'm super happy I chanced in on a Saturday night, I definitely will be back and hope the vibes haven't changed. read more

We stayed at Limelight Mammoth from Jan 29-Feb 1, 2026. On our first night, the assigned room experienced a complete heating failure (thermostat fully inoperable, room temperature dropped to approximately 58°F overnight) along with widespread electrical outlet failure. We have children, who slept in winter clothing due to the cold. Maintenance indicated the electrical issue could require opening the wall. We were moved to a different room the following morning. Some restaurant charges were comped, which was appreciated. However, the first night's room charge and associated taxes were not adjusted, despite the room being uninhabitable overnight. We made multiple written attempts to resolve this. We escalated the matter through Limelight Hotels corporate and Aspen Hospitality, the parent organization under Aspen One, as well as to the Director of Operations at the property, but did not receive a response. We requested a refund of the first night only (approximately $502.87), which we believe is reasonable given the circumstances. Posting this here because direct corporate outreach has not resulted in a response. read more

Where do I start ?! Front desk super helpful and quick check in ( that's important because we came late)!

We were not happy with this hotel. -Housekeeping went into our room while we were at breakfast when we had the do not disturb sign on the door. An entire bottle of prescription medication was not there when we returned. -There is no self-parking, so you have to get the valet to bring your car up if you need something from your car. There is a $35/day charge for parking. -The resort fee varies depending on the vacancy of the town and the hotel. So, it might be $99/night, $45/night. It just depends on what they decide to charge you. -There were very limited items on the restaurant menu that could be made vegan. -The shower has a strange door that only goes about 1/3 of the way across the tub. It does not close and water gets all over the floor and is very dangerous. They even give multiple floor mats because of the extreme amount of water that gets on the floor. -The tub/show has an extremely tall and wide ledge that you must step over to get into the shower. It will be very hard for many people to get into the shower. The front desk said many people have complained about this. -Most people will not be able to reach the showerhead to adjust the direction of water because it is so high. -The glass walls on our balcony and around the pool area were absolutely filthy. read more

We stayed at the Limelight for almost a week and it exceeded my expectations. The hotel is brand new, well designed, and has nice amenities, including a well-stocked, updated gym, laundry facilities, pool/spa, etc. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast with the different options- loved the variety of fruit and coconut chia pudding. The front desk staff was also very helpful. This is a family-friendly hotel which offers activities for children. read more

First of all, wow it's a gorgeous and well designed property! Every detail was anticipated such as enough towel racks/hangers (most hotels miss this!) the pool and hot tub area is fantastic and beautiful and the hot tub is heated to perfection. Only weird thing is you have to go a weird way to access the pool, but once there it's beautiful! The gym is state of the art! The valet isn't my favorite as I prefer to park myself but the young man Gavin at the valet was very kind and patient while we got our stuff and even offered suggestions on where we can go nearby. It's right next to the ski Lyft and they offer ski storage. We came during summer so we enjoyed the pool. Restaurant is a bit pricey with most drinks around $19 each.. but that's to be expected in higher end hotels. OH! check in was a breeze and the front desk so helpful!! BRAVO read more

Funny how Limelight Mammoth has the same rating as Motel 6 down the street. We stayed at the end of February for the skiing trip and the obvious pros are that this hotel is brand new and VERY conveniently located. Amenities are nice and rooms are very spacious. Bed was super comfy too! That's why I give 3 stars. Cons... communication was difficult due to the staff's language barrier, service was extremely slow and unorganized. There were constant parking/vallet issues. Huge lines at the reception and restaurants. Only one coffee machine was working during breakfast time. I didn't feel like it's worth the price that we paid for this hotel. read more

We booked the Limelight Hotel Mammoth because it's the newest hotel in Mammoth. We usually stay at The Westin, but wanted to try something new. Because it's brand new, I would say it is currently the nicest hotel in Mammoth--though that of course comes at a premium. That said, it is not a 5-star, full-service hotel. There is no room service and no spa. I would describe it as a step up from a Marriott Courtyard: modern, clean, stylish, but not ultra-luxury. Mammoth overall has mostly dated apartments, condos, and houses near the ski resort, so Limelight definitely stands out. Valet parking is $35/day with in-and-out privileges. The hotel also offers complimentary rides (first come, first serve) in Ford Expeditions to restaurants and around town. They've partnered with Audi as well and have a few vehicles onsite that guests can borrow for up to two hours, with suggested scenic routes if you want to explore the area. We were there for a 3-day holiday ski weekend. There were three of us, and we booked the Limelight Suite (504 sq ft) instead of the Deluxe Queen Room (410 sq ft). The Limelight Suite was about $5,000 for three nights, but remind you this was during a holiday weekend. The Limelight Suite features a king bedroom and a spacious open-concept living area with a sleeper sofa, dining table, microwave, Lavazza coffee machine and SMEG fridge. Our room had a private balcony with amazing views. The bathroom included both a walk-in shower and a separate tub in a glassed in area. Storage was well thought out, with a dresser and hanging space. There were two 55-inch TVs, though oddly, when you turned one on in the bedroom, both TVs would turn on despite the separation wall. Breakfast is included and starts at 7am. The buffet offered cold cereals, oatmeal, fruit, pastries, toast/bagels, eggs, potatoes, bacon, sausage, and more. In the breakfast area there was tea, drip coffee, and two fully automatic Lavazza machines--there was usually a line for those. They did offer to-go cups so you could make a latte or cappuccino and bring it back to your room. Breakfast was fine, but not amazing. One day, friends who woke up later found that some items had run out. We didn't have that issue since we were up early to get to the ski resort when it opened. The hotel has a concierge, as well as a pool and hot tub. One downside is that to access the pool and hot tub from the room elevators, you have to walk past the bar and lobby seating areas. Most people do this in robes, which can feel a little awkward when others are dressed up for drinks or a night out. The lobby itself is very open and has multiple seating areas. On Saturday night there was a DJ, and the lobby was packed--it was really lively and crowded. This may have been amplified by the holiday weekend, but it did feel busy. There were also a lot of families staying at the hotel since school was out. Location-wise, Limelight is excellent. It's directly next door to The Westin and directly across the street from The Village and the Village Gondola. Limelight also has a ski valet room where you can store skis and boots (boots must be in a bag). You put your boots on there and grab your skis before heading out, though there is still a bit of walking involved to reach the gondola. From the Limelight, while carrying your skis and wearing ski boots, you have to walk down a long set of stairs, cross the street, then go up another set of stairs to reach the Village Gondola. The Village Gondola then takes you to Canyon Lodge, where the lifts are located. This is where the difference between Limelight and The Westin next door becomes noticeable. At The Westin, the ski valet is located directly under the Village Gondola, which allows you to walk from the hotel in regular shoes, go down the stairs, cross the street, put your boots on at the valet, and then carry your skis up to the gondola. When you return, you can drop everything right there below the gondola. With Limelight, you have to walk in ski boots and carry your skis up and down all of those stairs, both coming and going. This may not be a big deal for some, but it's something to seriously consider if you have children or simply don't enjoy hauling skis around. Overall, I do recommend the Limelight, it's a really nice, modern hotel with a great location, beautiful rooms, and a fun, lively atmosphere. Just go in knowing the trade-offs compared to The Westin, especially when it comes to ski access and value. Please see all my detailed pictures. read more

Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience during our stay. It was puzzling that when booking online there was no option to select a valley view versus a hillside view. That's fairly standard practice at most hotels. I noted a request for a valley view in the reservation comments (and would have happily paid more for it) but we were assigned a low-floor room facing the ground level of the Westin. The rooms themselves are decent but quite basic, so the view really matters. A better view would have made the stay much more enjoyable. For a new hotel, I was surprised to find small maintenance issues (a missing screw on the toilet seat and problems with the sink). These details feel avoidable. The lobby design is very cool and unlike anything else in Mammoth, that part was impressive. I would encourage Limelight to be more transparent about room selection options during booking. Clear choices (and pricing tiers) would make expectations much easier to manage. read more

Our stay at Limelight Hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. It was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully considered to create a comfortable and welcoming experience. The room was spotless, and we especially appreciated the amenities, including the humidifier, dryer, microwave, and steamer, which made our stay even more convenient. The staff was truly first-class. We are very particular about where we stay, and Limelight delivered a level of service that is increasingly rare to find. A special shout-out to Chef D'Angelo, who represents the very best of hospitality. Our son has a food allergy, and Chef D'Angelo went above and beyond to ensure his meals were prepared safely and free from cross-contamination. His attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care gave us complete peace of mind. To our family, that is the definition of first-class hospitality. Thank you to the entire Limelight team for an outstanding stay. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Mammoth Lakes. read more

We wanted to check out this new establishment in Mammoth. There is only valet parking. We drove into the valet and they wouldn't park our car because we were not staying at the hotel, despite the fact we had dinner reservations at Limelight Lounge. For the restaurant ambience: The restaurant spans the entire lobby. The pool is on the floor below and guests are going back and forth through the lobby to the pool in bathrobes and swimsuits. There were two medium-large dogs in the lobby while we were eating. Food: - Bluefin tuna crudo- 6 small pieces, tuna was fresh and well-prepared. - Minestrone soup- soup was tasty, huge serving. - "Market Greens -- $18 shaved vegetables, sun gold tomato, Italian vin, ricotta salata." Large serving, included a few pieces of shaved kohlrabi, 4-5 pieces of shaved carrot, and grated parmesan, no tomato, no ricotta. - Roasted mushrooms- woodsy and flavorful. - Funghi pizza- dough was a bit undercooked but overall taste was good. - Roasted King Salmon- Salmon was mostly raw so sent it back. Chef overcooked the same piece until the white protein oozed out and served it again. We knew it was the exact same piece because it was missing the first chunk we sampled. The grilled treviso and olive gremolata were well-executed. - Dry Aged Cheese Burger- Ordered medium and came out raw with pool of bloody juices soaking the bun so sent it back. Server brought the replacement out with a steak knife and asked me to cut it in front of her- medium rare with bloody juices but edible. I said I would keep it but server said she personally wouldn't eat it and took it back again. Refer to photo for the third burger with menu description. No onions, no pickle, I ate the fries for dinner. Service: Our server was attentive and the manager comped two entrees. Dinner for 4 cost $167 including tip (no alcohol) and excluding the comped entrees. Will not be returning for this pricepoint. read more

Had a wonderful stay at the limelight. The staff were all wonderful and accommodating. A quick walk to the village gondola. Two hot tubs and the gym was well stocked. My only gripe is the food. We had dinner there and the food wasn't the best. But the breakfast was really good. Maybe they need to work out the kinks on the food. Overall I would Definitely would stay there again. read more

I stayed up at the limelight during the past snow storm. Our room was $1600 a night (for basically 2 suites), we were there for a week. 3 families, none would stay there again. For the price, Id say I get to be picky...this wasn't a mid range hotel or a place to crash for skiing. The hotel was understaffed even though they knew it'd be fully booked (it's been open since December, months ago). The hotel restraunt, which is just tables in the lobby, stops taking taking reservations within 10min of opening, but half the tables are empty. They only had 2-3 servers the first night, and every night after; we were there 5 days. The first night people were getting sick off the coffee too (multiple people in our party and in the lobby). Easily half the people I talked to said it was their first day. And multiple made jokes about being afraid of the chef and how he'd close early. Haha that's funny...but the 4th time in 48 hrs someone says it, it's weird. And then room service (5-10pm) would be cancelled, or stop at 8pm. This is supposed to be a family oriented luxury hotel. You need to have food for kids available, especially during bad weather. One night the manager helped us out and got food from the kitchen for our family. The dinner was essentially out the window, totally unrealiable if you could get any. Also, the food was not that good (especially the breakfast). I get it, it's hotel food, in Mammoth. But for that price , it was the same food as any other hotel 2-3 tiers down. For luxury hotels, you get a full breakfast and dinner menu, multiple restraunts etc...we had pizza/burger/salad or egg/pancake/sausage and make your own oatmeal level food. Our room wasn't housekept 3 of the 5 days. No one provided sheets or bedding for the pull out bed for the kids for over 4 hours. I ended up just using the sheets/throw blanket from the adults beds. If housekeeping came , they did not refill towel on the ground, bath soap, or missing toilet paper roll. If you stayed here for 3 nights you'd be out $5000 dollars The TVs did not work. No Olympics, and the streaming channels also would freeze eg no disney. I was told it was a "hotel wide issue". We had 2 of 4 faucets handles break, one bath spout was a sink spout so you couldnt fill the bath in any reasonable way, and the shower wand in the other bath broke. Our bathroom hadn't been fully housekept, all the soap was empty. There's 4 kids plus adults, we go through soap. They don't refill it. We had a dirty cup in our room. Not like a spot, but weird brown goo on the bottom. There is nowhere to buy little amenities like toothpaste, advil etc The coffee and tea station was cleaned up after about 8pm. It's a snow storm, I put the kids to bed, I'd like tea. Nope. For this price hotels usually have evening snacks and 24/7 tea and coffee. For a luxury hotel, we were on our own for anything we needed. Ended up just walking to get food during the snowstorm most of the time as it want possible to reliably get food for kids. Plus the menu very small (again, for a high end hotel). The ATM is not an atm, it's converts cash to prepaid cards (why the heck would I want to do that). The entire hotel is cashless. Need money to tip valet or Ski instructors? Nope they can't help you. The ADA wheelchair door also didn't work, If you need that. The pool is technically heated...to 72 degrees. I get it's expensive to heat the pool, but just close it or don't have one if you can't afford to heat it properly for a ski lodge. I don't want to go to a tepid pool in the snow. Hotels in this price range in ski area have outdoor pools in the high &0s, so it feels good to get in. Not cool water. The valet guys and snow shovel team were great Yep, my post may sound whiny and I sound like a entitled. But this isn't motel 6. For the same price, I could stay in a luxury resort at any other mountain. Or rent an entire very nice home in mammoth. Or buy ski gear for every single person in my family *and* stay in budget place. This hotel is more than the Montage, more than Fairmont Gold, probably more than the St Regis my wife stayed at and it was the same as staying at $400 a night hotel. No ameneities, no luxuries, not even basic reliable services like food and housekeeping. Basically the hotel is a giant rip off. There is *no* reason to stay here. This is not to disparage the people who work there and *were* there. They cared and did their best. It's the people who *werent* there...admin, management...who can't staff a hotel properly, set up room service/housekeeping, have basic stuff for luxury visitors (chapstick? ATM/cash? Food? A bottle of soda? Refill toilet paper?) and have no interest in a luxury hotel. I'd never stay at a limelight *anywhere*. It's dollar for dollar the worst hotel I've ever visited. I emailed them after my terrible experience and they never even responded read more

Super unethical hotel operation. They overcharged me. I've called twice with no human response. Unbelievable. They are sweeping into Mammoth thinking the people won't hold them accountable. I would recommend booking at non-corporate places that demonstrate accountability and authenticity. I really wanted to like Limelight, and recommend to friends and family, but they let me down. Sucks. read more

Having a great stay here at Limelight Mammoth! Service has been amazing from the minute we dropped off our car at valet parking. Unfortunately, there were no balcony rooms available when we checked in at the front desk after skiing. However, Victoria who worked at the front desk was kind enough to remember us and called our room the next morning to request us an upgrade! We have stayed at many nice properties and that has never happened, so we appreciate that so much! The breakfast buffet was amazing and the lobby/outdoor area has so much seating. Room was very modern, cozy and clean. Definitely out new favorite hotel in Mammoth, we will be back next season! read more

I expected more for the price. The room is okay but it's really dirty and run down. That seems odd considering they haven't been open a year yet. They advertise shuttle and transportation services. I requested it 3 times and it wasn't available. I asked if they could arrange a taxi for me and they said, "they don't do that". I've never been to a hotel that has refused to call a taxi. The staff at the front desk were not very friendly either. I asked for a non dog room and I think they put me in a dog friendly room. I felt sick during my entire stay and there were a lot of stains on the carpet. The TV didn't work either. They waived the fee to watch movies but when the bill came I had to request a manager to actually remove the fees that they promised to waive. At one point the movies stopped working. Maintenance was really nice and did what they could the but the issues were out of their hands. I felt really bad they were dealing with such a mess. The pool area is very nice, they get 2 stars for that. . All of the large businesses coming into mammoth have really ruined what made mammoth so great and this place is no exception. I do not recommend staying here. It is not even close to worth it. read more

My teenage son and I stayed here 2/20/26 weekend and while the hotel is still working out some issues that I'm sure are common to new hotels, we were impressed. Special thanks to front desk manager Joy and valet Carter. There was an issue with our stay being on 2 different reservations (not the hotels fault) and unfortunately I had to move rooms (and would have appreciated assistance with this) but other than that I loved the lobby and pool/jacuzzis. the breakfast buffet was very nice also...and the bartenders were excellent. I had an attentive female bartender both nights and wish I remembered her name but she always made sure I had a fresh drink or food. Also would be better if they had a food menu during day hours too, not just after 3 or 4 pm. read more

What a perfect hotel. The customer service is top notch. Everything is clean and modern. Can't wait to come back!

Valet broke my car key off in the ignition and the night manager did absolutely nothing to help the situation!

Showed up and room was not ready, had to wait. Took 2 days to get a do not disturb sign. The fridge was not working, made 3 phone calls to try and get it fixed because I had dog food that was perishable. Ice machine was broken..finally got annoyed enough I then fixed the ice machine. Really wanted to like this place because yes it is pretty but no one in this place is in a hurry to actually do their job. The counter where the ice and water were covered in dirty towels. read more

I feel for the employees working because they were clearly understaffed. When I asked about dining in the building restaurant during check-in in order to use my $100 credit, they said there was only one waiter and long waits to come back. Naturally they didn't tell me the restaurant was closing in about 45 minutes. When I called down, they said the restaurant was closing in 5 minutes. I ran down and the bartender wouldn't take my order because the restaurant was closed. I went to the front desk and talked to the same person I had just called and they got the chef to agree to take my order. Food was mediocre so that was kind of a waste regardless. Oh, and be warned there's no self parking. All-in-all, obnoxious place to visit. read more

Had high hopes for this place as a homeowner on the mountain. We stopped by to have a drink at the bar and try the restaurant. After self parking in a large unoccupied lot (we had our dogs in the back) we saw a valet running our way. We told him our plans and he said that will be a $20 parking fee. We decided to get back into our car and go to tamarack restaurant. It has a much nicer vibe - and free parking. read more

Was very rudely told I could not grab a singular apple from the breakfast bar 2 minutes after they were supposed to have opened because they were still scrambling to get the hot food ready. read more

Very luxurious, but a lot of places are very luxurious. Limelight had some of the nicest staff I've encountered at a hotel, felt like a 6-star experience. read more

We had a wonderful stay at the Limelight Hotel in Mammoth Lakes. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming from start to finish. The outdoor pool was fabulously warm--perfect after a day on the mountain--and our room had beautiful sunset views overlooking Crowley Lake. The location is hard to beat: it's an easy walk across the street to The Village, and all town and mountain buses stop right outside the hotel, making it incredibly convenient to get around without a car. Families will love the kids' area, especially the Pac-Man and Mario Kart games, and it's a big plus that the hotel is dog-friendly as well. Comfortable, convenient, and welcoming--we'd happily stay here again read more

This review is for the Lounge and not the hotel itself, although we spoke to several people who have stayed and were not impressed. It's still very new so keep that in mind, but I don't think it's worth its price tag yet. Unfortunately, this place still has some issues with both service and food. The cheese plate was decent, but for the price, they could have included nuts or something. The burger had a strange fish egg taste, which seemed intentional, but it was a bit off-putting. My husband isn't picky but I couldn't eat it. I noticed the table next to us sent their food back, and were not offered anything else. They mentioned their burger was raw and the butter for was frozen. I could go on, but I'll spare you the details. It's worth checking out, but don't expect a 5-star experience. On the positive side, we had a fantastic server named Sydney. She's working with what the kitchen gives her, and she did a great job despite the shortcomings of the food. read more

Weird experience at the new limelight. First off my experience with the valet was a bad start. He wasn't very helpful and I ended up unloading all my bags myself. Then in the elevator he was telling me a story and his breath smelled a little like alcohol. Could be wrong... but not a good first impression. Valet not helpful on the way out either. The customer service otherwise was as best average with a few helpful people like Andrew at the front desk - The rest of the front desk.. not so much. I was told we could leave our room at noon for our checkout because we had a dog in the room (which is a small bonus of staying here) but when I got back to the hotel room after my half day of skiing, I got locked out and had to walk all the way back to the front desk to get a new card even after I had spoke to the woman. Overall it was a decent experience, but considering the price for a room you're better off in an air bnb. Other notes: Tiny fridge in room Great location Solid breakfast (lacks flavor but good options still) Cool area for kids either video games Feels clean read more
