4 Seasons is on fairly the growth spree recently, as the luxurious lodge group has simply introduced the small print of its latest property. That is the second 4 Seasons ski resort in the USA that’s within the pipeline proper now.
Fundamentals of the 4 Seasons Telluride, Colorado
4 Seasons is partnering with developer Fort Companions and actual property improvement agency Merrimac Ventures on the opening of the 4 Seasons Resort and Residences Telluride. The property is being constructed on a 4.4-acre web site, and is the primary new luxurious luxurious improvement within the space in over 15 years.
The resort will function 52 visitor rooms, 43 lodge residences (that includes one to 4 bedrooms), and 26 personal residences (that includes two to 5 bedrooms), for these trying to name Telluride dwelling. Floor has already been damaged on the brand new undertaking, and it’s anticipated to open in 2028.

Extra luxurious ski accommodations are all the time a very good factor
For many who are 4 Seasons followers, that is an thrilling addition to the portfolio, as will probably be 4 Seasons’ fourth ski resort in the USA, after those in Jackson Gap, Vail, and Deer Valley (which is below building). Even for individuals who don’t plan to remain at this property, extra stock and competitors within the US luxurious ski market is all the time a very good factor, by way of reducing charges at different properties.
What I discover significantly cool about this lodge is that Telluride doesn’t in any other case have many luxurious choices, so it’s enjoyable to see a brand new improvement in a market like this. For my part it’s much more thrilling than a brand new property in Aspen, or Deer Valley, or Vail, for instance. Moreover, the design of the lodge appears actually cool, and I really like the way it’s fashionable whereas utilizing pure supplies.
That being mentioned, extra broadly talking, I’ve a tough time getting too enthusiastic about luxurious ski resorts in the USA. The service, eating places, and normal vibe, simply pale compared to the expertise in a lot of Europe. In the USA, you pay extra and get much less (not simply at accommodations, but additionally for ski passes and leases, and so forth.).
If redeeming factors, I’m glad to remain at some luxurious US ski properties, however I’d by no means pay the money fee for what many properties are charging in peak season. I’d a lot somewhat keep at one thing like Airelles Courchevel, the place you would possibly pay a ton, however you additionally get a ton, and have an unforgettable expertise. Nonetheless, in equity, the USA has nice snow, whereas some components of Europe battle with that.
On the plus facet, I discover that 4 Seasons in all probability does the perfect job with a constantly excessive service commonplace amongst lodge teams with massive properties. Good service might be actually laborious to execute at ski resorts in the USA, so I’m curious if 4 Seasons can pull it off.
Backside line
4 Seasons has introduced plans to open the 4 Seasons Telluride. Floor has already been damaged on the resort, and it’s anticipated to open in 2028. That is the primary new luxurious improvement in Telluride in a very long time, in order that’s enjoyable to see. I’m certain this place gained’t be low-cost, however hopefully it’ll be very nice.
