Ski challenge

Located in a valley surrounded by mountains, glaciers, and spectacular views of the ocean, this hotel gives luxury lodging all the year around for those who seek to be near nature. Its design perfectly amalgamates modern influences and native touches.

The hotel has 304 recently renovated rooms, a salt water pool, a hot tube, a gym and a spa. Moreover, it has easy access to walking trails, to practicing Nordic skiing, to snowshoeing or to riding on sleds pulled by dogs.

The Alyeska Resort skiing area is well known for its steep lines and abundant snowfall, which makes it into a challenge for proficient skiers. The north side of the mountain is used for the longest race in North America, classified as double black diamond which means it is one of the most complex ski slopes. Also, a beginners’ space has been adapted where classes are given individually or in a group.
