Its 42 trails encompass 430 acres of skiable terrain (35 percent are rated for beginners, 39 percent are more difficult, and 26 percent most difficult) accessible by nine lifts. Buttermilk is home to Aspen’s ski school and includes one half-pipe, a two-mile-long terrain park, and the Boardercross course.

The Sky hotel is supposed to be one of the best hotels in Aspen. The rooms are very small and dingy: not what you expect for a hotel this caliber. The lobby is very small and noisy and the pool area is very close to many rooms so you hear a lot of noise. The walls are also very thin. They try to make up for the rooms by having an "honor bar" and lame bedding with faux fur throws and very uncomfortable bathrobes. The room layout is similar to a Motel 6 with rooms on the outside. Some rooms you can only access by walking thru the pool area, getting soaked along the way. There was trash in the hallways that never got cleaned. Everything about this hotel is pretentious and overpriced. Customer service is non existent since the hotel is staffed with college stoner ski bums who could care less about your stay. Don't waste your money! Also construction is happening right across the street which makes the noise unbearable at times. If you are splurging to stay in Aspen anyway, just stay at the Nell or Hotel Jerome and avoid this pit. What a waste!

Reviewed by George of Los Angeles on Jul 27, 2009
Many of the elements of a boutique hotel are evident in the Kimpton Sky Hotel. The design features are fresh, colorful and coordinated, but the furniture arrangement is awkward and uncomfortable. One small problem was with the hair-dryer - the one in the room may have worked, but the fault interrupter had snapped, so it didn't. When someone brought me a second dryer, it blew only cold air. The desk person said that another would be sent, but it never arrived.

Reviewed by E. of Denver on Jul 24, 2009
The Sky Hotel was wonderful. The location couldn't have been better and the views were amazing. They are pet friendly and just a short walk away is a nice park to walk the dog. The pool is nice and relaxing, but at night it is hard to find a place to sit. It looks to be the local hangout after 4 pm. But you can always go on the balcony and enjoy their free wine hour and take in the views. The only negative is that they state they are eco-friendly but when we arrived they had all the lights on in our room, the tv and radio blaring. Each time they would clean our room they would leave all the lights on for us, which I found unnessary. It seems like such a waste, especially if they are leaving all the lights on in every room when they clean...with tv's and radios going. Otherwise it was a great stay.

Great location in Aspen, Co...Walking distance to all the best parts of this great town, however, we were given a room that is is open to the outside...kinda like a lower priced motel. Not what we expected given the premium price we paid. Great location, just not worth the extra $$$. We were very disappointed.

out of value="5""Not up to Kimpton standards"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jul 13, 2009
The staff was very courteous but the service was amateurish. Staff was willing but not 'at the ready' with solutions or suggestions. Smacks of little or no professional training in the hospitality industry. The hotel reminded me of a party hotel on a beach. Seems to attract young partiers who prefer the pool to nature ... not a bad thing but at odds with why most people come to the mountains. Having stayed at other Kimpton hotels and having met Bill Kimpton around the time he started the business, the Sky does not comport with his vision, in my view.

Service was exceptional. We couldn't say more about how good it was. Complimentary wine and hors d' oeuvres were much higher quality than other places and other Kimptons we've experienced. Parts of the hotel and some of the rooms are tired. High priced for what you get, but this was Aspen. Don't know if that's an "excuse".

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Aug 20, 2008
I have one minor complaint about the hotel but I will get to that later. The hotel was upscale without being stuffy and the staff was extremely accommodating. The room was on the smaller side but nicely decorated, clean and cozy, besides we were not there to spend all of our time in our room. We were walking distance to everything and the concierge, I wish I would have gotten her name (petite blond lady), knew her stuff. The crowd was mixed, families, business types, the majority 25-45 straight out of a "fashion magazine" types. I was there in summer and the pool was the place to be, the ambiance was great. My only complaint was that I was there earlier than check-in time, tired from travel, and I understood that they did not yet have all the rooms cleaned up so I could not check in earlier. However, by 4:30 I was still waiting. On the other hand, I think that if it would have been possible they would have checked me in sooner. Very minor complaint.
