The Grand Lodge by Traverse Hospitality (No Resort Fees)

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful location in Mt Crested Butte for golden Aspen sightseeing. Room is big and clean. Has all amenities and utensils for some simple meal cooking. Self check in and checkout is smooth. Suggest to list more details on what’s offered in the kitchenette."

Nordic Inn

10/10 Excellent

"If we discount the walk up and down the flight of stairs, the Inn itself is beautiful, elegant and the room was worth the price. The common spaces were very well designed and had considerable space for some relaxed time. The breakfast was good, not great - pre-made burritos and sandwiches that one has to heat, but, with juices, milk and cereal."

The Plaza by Traverse Hospitality

8/10 Good

"Very comfortable unit which was very clean. Bedding was comfortable and nice view of the mountains. Host communication was exceptional and very helpful. Well equipped kitchen. Built in 1981 so a little dated especially the toilets which are more suited for shorter folks. Carpet was nice but could use some stain removal, but overall, a nice place to stay."
