BEAVER CREEK, CO (November 5, 2007) – Beaver Creek Lodge, Beaver Creek's prominent AAA Four-Diamond hotel and the village's only luxury all-suite boutique hotel, has just received the ranking of #39 out of the top 50 US Mainland Resorts in Condé Nast Traveler’s annual “Top 100 Reader’s Survey”.   This year, the property was also named to Condé Nast Traveler's prestigious Gold List and Travel and Leisure magazine's T+L 500 list.

 

“Being recognized by the readers of Condé Nast Traveler as one of the top 50 resorts in the U.S. is a wonderful honor,” says Beaver Creek Lodge General Manager Simon Chen.  “I believe this is a testament to our gorgeous natural setting along with our dedicated staff and our ongoing mission to provide our guests with a truly memorable experience.”

 

According to the magazine, this year marked the first time that the Reader’s Choice Survey was made available to all of the magazine’s readers, rather than just a select sample as in past years.  The final tabulations came from 28,104 responses.  The questionnaires contained lists of candidates and space was allowed for write-ins.  Only candidates that received a required minimum number of responses were deemed eligible by Condé Nast Traveler for an award.
 

Beaver Creek Lodge’s 72 one-bedroom guest suites feature a mountain chic décor comprised of oversized headboards, commissioned artwork by French artist Jean Claude Roy, cozy pillow-top mattresses, down comforters, a LCD flat screen TV, DVD/CD player, and Bose® Wave® CD radio.  The Beaver Creek Lodge also features the Grand Bohemian Gallery, 6,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, fitness center, outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna and steam room, concierge and valet parking. An array of outdoor and leisure activities are also available, including skiing, golf, mountain biking, kayaking and hiking.
