“What I find particularly cool about this hotel is that Telluride doesn’t otherwise have many luxury options”
Huh? Telluride has two Auberge Collection hotels that frequently costs thousands per night in peak season.
This is absurd. Where are they going to find the staff? All these Colorado mountain hotels, especially full-service and luxury hotels, rely on either (a) American staff who are living in cars or camper vans because there's no place to live or (b) foreign guest worker staff who are sleeping in tenement-style housing.
Off topic I know, but Ben I'd love your thoughts on Senator Josh Hawley "grilling" the Frontier CEO. It's hilarious because it's quite clear Mr. Hawley doesn't understand how basic economy works haha. Check out the video posted on the CSPAN YouTube channel yesterday for a good laugh 😀
Telluride has a population of about 2,500 people. It’s now poised to have more high-end luxury hotels than Cincinnati, Kansas City, Indianapolis, Detroit, Cleveland, etc, So yeah, relatively speaking, I think most people would say that’s “many” (and is about on par with Vail and Jackson Hole, which are two resorts apparently considered by the author to have “many”).
Hotel residences are almost certainly rented out when not in use and probably include full hotel services and amenities. Private residences are probably never rented out by the hotel and may not include access to hotel services.
