Bear Creek Lodge by Alpine Lodging Telluride

This place is a dump. Furniture is worn to point where the finish is peeling off. Only one elevator in the whole complex. Staff has a “ I really don’t care “attitude. The facility needed a complete overhaul 10 years ago. Not worth the price. A very hodgepodge place, always going up or down stairs.

We have stayed Bear Creek Lodge numerous times over the last 10 years, Abe 3 times during 2023. We prefer this location rather than being below in the actual town of Telluride for many reasons but most of all for the serenity and the excellent views of the mountains. No parking issues, well equipped kitchen and gracious staff including a free van for guests to use if they prefer not to drive.

Clean rooms very friendly and helpful staff. General manager Tyler Newman and his staff went above and beyond to assist us. They even cleaned the snow from our car knowing we will be traveling that morning. We are very grateful.

When we arrived no one was at the front desk. After waiting a while someone showed who knew little English and checked us in. When we arrived to our room, we noticed that there was a hallway with a closet that connects to another room. The design allows noise intrusions from the people next to you. You can literally hear their conversations. Privacy concerns right there. Then around midnight, a group started to party at the ping-pong table. It was so loud no one was able to sleep and no one stopped them because there is no staff at night. We decided this place was so disappointing, we checked out early. I emailed the general manager Tyler Newman about the situation and he never even replied back to me.
