“Outstanding five+ star”
An amazing hotel regardless of its faults

“I absolutely loved Deer valley and especially the hotel. The two pools were amazing the one designed for kids a special win - not to mention our well appointed two bedroom suite with a hot tub on the balcony - all in room amenities were high end from the neapreaso maker to the high end q tips. The landscaping all around was equally high end an impressive. Food and drink was extensive and well curated though service seemed a bit stretched. The biggest issues were turn down and a separate amenity deliver ly both going through our do not disturb - clearly not Forbes 5 star, I understand with the service lapses in the restaurant not gaining that distinction makes sense - but not sure how that hotel has 5 stars as the above mentioned and valet being hit or miss was a bit of a negative for me. All told two nights at almost $3500 for the room is a lot for service hiccups (and our ac in 103-2b was terrible) but I will be back - for the misses the hits were impressive and the hotel was beyond lovely - just not flawless.”

“Fantastic service from everyone at Stein Eriksen for our overnight as we were on a road trip through Utah. Our room was large and gorgeous. Patrick at the valet was great helping us get our motorcycle stored for the night. Sam (dinner) and Yen (breakcast) at the Glitretind Restaurant were also fantastic hosts. Highly recommend!!”
FABULOUS BRUNCH WITH FAMILY!!!

“We had a wonderful stay at the Stein Eriksen Residences. The staff was incredibly welcoming while also completely respecting our privacy. They kindly gave us a tour of the property, allowing us to explore the game room, the convenient ski-in/ski-out access, the ski lockers, and other fantastic amenities. The hotel was clean, had a great view, and was very quiet. It was the perfect vacation—peaceful and refreshingly uncrowded. The infinity pool was another wonderful highlight that made this hotel so exceptional. We would love to visit again!”

“Stein Eriksen Lodge in Deer Valley can not be beat! The staff is friendly and accommodating. The spa and the restaurants are world class. My family has been coming to Steins for decades. Steins feels like home our home away from home.”

“Our stay at Stein Eriksen Lodge in Deer Valley was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming & every staff member went out of their way to make us feel at home.
The ski-in/ski-out access is unbeatable, making it incredibly convenient to enjoy the slopes without any hassle. After a day of skiing, returning to the lodge for après-ski by the fire or a visit to the pool and hot tub was the perfect way to unwind.
Overall, Stein Eriksen Lodge delivers a truly luxurious and memorable experience. Whether you’re visiting for skiing, relaxation, or a special occasion, it’s a place that exceeds expectations in every way. We can’t wait to return.”
5+ Star stay - great job

“I followed up my stay at the Stein Eriksen Residences with a stay at the Stein Eriksen Lodge - what an incredible experience. I am a big fan of Deer Valley and have been lucky enough to experience all of the top tier lodging on the mountain. While the competitors are all impressive, they do not match the 5+ star hospitality that is consistently delivered at SEL. Location is the best, service from all of the SEL team members is the best and all of the various services offered from restaurants/apres ski/ski valet are as good as it gets. If AI was creating the demo of an iconic ski resort, they would copy the Stein Eriksen Lodge operation. While the grounds throughout are amazing, what impresses me most is how every single team member that I experience is on the top of their game. Kudos to Stein Erikson Lodge - see you next year.”
I think they’ve lost their touch

“I visited the Stein Erickson 15 years ago and had the cheese fondue in the afternoon with friends. I knew I wanted to stay there sometime in the future -well 15 years later-We stayed last week for three nights.
This year’s weather was not good for skiing as they had little snow this year. We only skied one day lift tickets are $380 a day per person plus $100 ski rental fees.
James was outstanding in the Stein Erickson rental department. He was so kind to help my husband as he never skied before.
Our room upon arrival I had lights that were not working a white cloth on the ground by the bed and only half a roll of toilet paper-for $1,500 a night you would think that everything would be perfect, but it wasn’t.
I informed the front desk and they did clean it up and fixed everything.
The front desk was OK for $1,500 a night. You would think that they would be more gracious and they were not. They kind of locked themselves behind the desk and we’re not overly friendly or kind or helpful..
We toured the property and they do have a small arcade that is free. You can play unlimited on a few machines..
The hot chocolate was good at night in the lobby and during the day they did have lemon fruit water, which was very nice.
The main restaurant was terrific or buffet or breakfast service was excellent and the Troll restaurant was very very good for lunch and dinner. We had the Voss still water because the regular tap water was not very good.
The chocolate fondue is one of the best. It really does serve 4 to 5 people. We ordered one night for the two of us and it was way too much.
Service was very good during the day and night at the Troll.
The free shuttle service was a little slower than you would like in fact, my husband and I wanted to go check out the St. Regis Hotel and Javier the shuttle bus driver took off without my husband in the van and I said wait a minute my husband’s coming he did not listen to me and I finally shouted stop and he pulled over and my husband was so upset running up to the van -we reported him.
The spa was very nice and I would recommend having the foot service by Wendy.
I wish I would’ve talked to the general manager of the Stein Erickson. They need to step it up a little bit, especially if there’s no snow. The only way I’d ever return is if there is tons of snow and I would call ahead to the general manager to make sure that everything will be taken care of before we checked in. stain was a phenomenal person. Everybody we talked to that had known him said he was a character. He was a wonderful man so people need to look up who Stein Erickson is. He was incredible.”
Phenomenal Stay at Stein Eriksen Lodge

“Overall: Amazing, stress-free stay. Perfect ski in/ski out location near Silver Lake Lodge. Taking the kids skiing by myself was easy thanks to the exceptional staff and facilities. Worth the price and already looking to book for Christmas.
Ski Concierge: Brilliant and proactive. They anticipated every need—no lugging equipment or skis for me or the kids.
The Room: Having a private hot tub in the room, ready to use, was a highlight. Housekeeping and turn-down service were flawless.
Dining: Breakfast at Glitretind buffet was high-quality with great variety.
Champion Club: We visited daily. The waitress remembered our order after day one and had drinks ready on arrival. Great food and atmosphere and no wait for the kids' games. Great fun watching the Super Bowl here.
Spa & Gym: Wonderful spa facilities and staff. Enjoyed the hot tub and cold plunge. Massage was nice. The oxygen therapy and leg compression treatment were a nice and relaxing way to reset after a day on the slopes. Only room for improvement: The gym only had one yoga mat.”

“Zac Howard when above and beyond I had an apparent problem with an American Express platinum card in a fraud he was able to fix it for me to the best of his ability to upgrade me and take care of me thank you Zach and thank you. This hotel went above and beyond that’s why they’ve been a five star for so long highly recommend recommended.”
