    Very cool adobe Style hotel...lots of water features, patios, stairways and hidden verandas to relax and get lost in..this was a very cool and unique place. Heated solar pool and hot tub. Four corners cafe onsite looked good, but we didn't eat there. Weekend nights they have live music on the rooftop bar. Highly recommended

    Kind of hippyish.  Definitely not my style.  I'm more of the Embassy Suites free happy hour type.  Man, did that hippy blanket on the bed stink.  I haven't smelled anything quite like that since I lived in Bellingham and smelled those Neo-Bohemians on a far too regular basis.  Chipeta's within walking distance to True Grit Café which makes it a little more passable.  My room had no AC but the portable fan and open window helped.  No TV either but to tell you the truth I didn't even miss it.  Nice that they provided deodorant and a razor.  Advice for hippy guest maybve?  Apparently, Chipeta is famous enough to make it into the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.

    This idyllic getaway in beautiful Ridgway is our new favorite place to relax.  The staff are so friendly and attentive, it is central for Telluride and Ouray outings and the spa is very tastefully planned and serene.  We visited in the low season, sat by the fireplace at night, enjoyed the solar heated atrium in the day and walked to Kate's Place each morning for breakfast.

    I found this place in the 5280 magazine and decided to head down there with my boyfriend. They have many different packages to choose from. We chose the one with lift tickets to Telluride and the hot springs. I wold definatly recommend staying here. The staff is friendly and very helpful.

    A spirit of generosity pervades this place and its lovely setting with the San Juan mountains as a back drop.  The staff were kind and helpful and our rooms were designed to please.  The spa, which is very comprehensive, and the outside hot tub with its beautiful view added to our sense of relaxation.  A nice complementary continental breakfast sent us on our way as we sadly left this place, named after the honorable and much revered Ute, Chipeta.

    I'm reviewing Chipeta's Four Corners Restaurant which we visited last week.  The rooftop views of Mt. Sneffels and the Cimmarons are fabulous, but the dining experience was quite disappointing.  Our waitress, who was quite nice, informed us that "we are out of chicken and out of salads."  This was at 7 pm!  Out of salads!  My husband and his friend ordered hamburgers and the waitress came back to tell us there was only one left.  My husband got the hamburger and asked for it medium rare - it came well done.  I ordered pasta with "roasted seasonal vegetables," and it came with four thin slices of sauteed (not roasted) zucchini and 4 cherry tomatoes.  This was $13 and did not come with a salad or anything else.  After dinner, our friend asked for a kaluha and cream, but the bartender said, "we're fresh out of kaluha."  So we sat around the fire ring nursing our glasses of wine, when a manager came to tell us they were closing and we had to leave!  Wow!  What a disappointing experience.  even our waitress felt embarrassed.  The lodge is lovely (I honeymooned there 5 years ago), but the restaurant definitely needs a new manager ASAP.
