Steamboat Grand Resort Hotel

First Timers to USA

We decided to take advantage of the Aussie $ and ski in the USA. 

After much asking around and googling we settled on Steamboat. We got a great deal through Travelplan for the Steamboat Grand Hotel.  

Wonderful accommodation, wonderful resort, rotten snow cover! Nevermind, we still had fabulous time and were thrilled with the deal we got for our holiday.   

Would love to go back again.

Steamboat is Mostly Awesome

Stayed in Steamboat over New Years and 1st week on Jan.

It was fantastic despite poorest snow in 40 years ( still better than most resorts ).

Steamboat Grand is a great place to stay EXCEPT when the Texas Musicfest arrived mid 1st week of Jan. Then it becomes Texan drunkfest and I know how good Steamboat usually is, but not when the Texans INVADE and definately don''t stay at the Steamboat Grand because that is "party central" for the drunken Texans ( who can''t ski and don''t even bother to try ).

The ski school at Steamboat is the best anywhere in the world. Kids had a blast in ski school. Loved the town, the restaurants, the hot springs.

All great but my advice, make sure you avoid the Texans.

Steamboat Shines

If you are looking for resort that has facilities for all the family, then include Steamboat on your destination short-list. 

The Steamboat Grand is a fantastic property and exceptional value;  the apartment was large and the bathroom sparkled. On site facilities included a day spa; restaurant; pool/spa area; underground parking and an excellent ski storage service near the slopes. 

Varied terrain keeps the interest of all levels of skiers and the mountain staff managed to maintain the slopes, despite the below-average snowfalls this season.   

Looking forward to returning to enjoy the glade skiing when the snow is more abundant.
