THE LODGE AT BRECKENRIDGE’S MAJOR RENOVATIONS

Enhancing The Experience

“The renovations further elevate this wonderful asset and allow us to deliver continued great hospitality to our guests. The services which we provide are built on our core competencies, and we are very excited completing this strategic project,” says Nico Foris, CEO.

“It also shows our commitment to our employees, our number one asset. Building employee housing was extremely important in such a highly competitive labor market, and attracting talent requires that we provide a great environment.”

“At the end of the day, we want to be proud of all our assets that we operate, especially those that we own. So, we wanted to refresh the rooms, the restaurant, the common area, the ballroom, and other areas to continue driving the value proposition for all of our guests,” says Mr. Foris.

2023 Grand Reopening Event

To celebrate the successful completion of the renovations, the Breckenridge team will host an event to feature their recent improvements.

Nestled on a forested cliff at 10,200 feet, The Lodge at Breckenridge offers rustic Colorado charm with spectacular million-dollar views of Boreas Pass, Breckenridge Ski Resort, and the Tenmile Range. Located 107 miles west of Denver in the Arapaho National Forest and only 5 miles from historic downtown Breckenridge, The Lodge is the idyllic setting for romance, outdoor adventure, an unforgettable family vacation, a mountain wedding, or a corporate retreat.

The Lodge Gets Renovated

Recently, The Lodge received renovations that introduced new guest rooms, new room types, facelifts to the ballroom and restaurant, and new employee housing.

Previously named The Lodge and Spa at Breckenridge, the spa wasn’t utilizing the space it was occupying as efficiently as it could, so it was removed altogether, and The Lodge was renamed.

“In addition to the Spa, we had a massive fitness center that was very underutilized. Between that and the spa, we had all this extra space that wasn’t really being used for anything. By converting it to more rooms, we’re increasing our profit gain,” says Rhonda Wilson, General Manager at The Lodge at Breckenridge.

The existing rooms were updated with “new carpets, paint, and fixtures. We also upgraded our bed linen and moved to bulk amenities.”

“It makes us much more competitive, not only because we have more rooms to sell, but because we have more room types. It brings us into a more modern aesthetic. The colors are a bit brighter and more exciting,” says Wilson.

“We’ll welcome local businesses, newspapers, and the Summit County Chamber to showcase the new rooms, the renovations in the restaurant and ballroom, the employee housing, and just the overall new look. It’s also about getting the word out that this is no longer ‘The Lodge and Spa at Breckenridge’ because the spa is gone,” says Wilson.
