A true Steamboat original, The Ptarmigan Inn has been refitted and reborn as a stylish basecamp for in-the-know adventurers. A free-spirited home base of social buzz and vibrant fun with comfy amenities and a bullseye location for summer activities such as off-road mountain biking, zip-lining, and white water rafting and more makes The Ptarmigan the only choice for hotels in Steamboat Springs.
We know you felt like the Ptarmigan Inn was great as it was. Classic, fashionable, consistent. We get it. Change can be tough, but trust us, you’ll love the changes we have implemented. All new rooms with fun, whimsical style, and social spaces that are sure to become the buzz of Steamboat. So mark your calendars and get ready for summer because the Ptarmigan is truly a new experience.
Buzzing with energy and excitement, there’s never a dull moment at The Ptarmigan. Get cozy with your neighbors on our lively outdoor pool and patio that is a social spot all year long. Unwind or wind up for a night of fun in our lobby living room where grab-and-go breakfasts and afternoon beers are always on the menu.
Situated on the base of the mountain adjacent to the Steamboat Ski Resort base we bring the slopes as close to your door as possible. Recharge and hang your hat in the stylish and comfortable confines of our guest rooms. Flexible with several unique configurations (including bunk beds) our rooms are perfect for families, groups, and friends traveling together.
The Ptarmigan comes alive during the summer months. Get your adrenaline going with thrill-seeking excitement like off-road mountain biking, zip-lining, and white water rafting. Relax and enjoy the sites on a scenic hike, hot air balloon ride, kayak, or horseback ride. Pamper yourself in the nearby natural hot springs. Spend the day on the golf course, or get in touch with your inner fisherman and spend a day on the water. The Ptarmigan proves that there is no such thing as an off-season in Steamboat Springs.
We like to call him Ptom (the “p” is silent, are you seeing the pattern?). This social, little grouse is common in the Colorado Rockies, though his snow-white winter feathers can make him hard to spot in the wild. Here at the inn, Ptom is your playtime guide - he'll mark the spot for mountain adventures and events.
