Staying in Steamboat Springs

Steamboat Springs is known for its Champagne Powder snow, geothermal hot springs and Western heritage, and it has produced many Winter Olympians. Winter brings skiing and snowboarding at Steamboat Ski Resort, while summer draws hikers, bikers, fly-fishers and rafters to the Yampa River and the surrounding national forest. The Steamboat Springs Winter Carnival runs in February and the Pro Rodeo Series in summer.

Most of these hotels sit close to the Steamboat Ski Resort Base Area at the foot of Mount Werner, several on Ski Time Square Drive and Mount Werner Circle within 0.7 km of the centre, with others a little further out such as Moraine 1588 on Mid Valley Dr at 2.1 km and Governors Penthouse 401 on 5Th St at 3.9 km. Because nearly every property is a condo or resort residence with kitchens and fireplaces, the list suits couples and families on a ski or summer break who want space and self-catering, and skiers who want to be near the lifts.
