The Alta Peruvian Lodge offers a rich combination of traditional ski lodge accommodations and fine dining to which our guests return year after year. Since 1948, we have welcomed visitors with an old-world atmosphere full of character and rustic charm. Located at the base of the world-renowned Alta Ski Area in Utah, the Peruvian offers easy access to the exceptional ski conditions Alta is known for- light, fluffy powder with an average annual snowfall of over 500 inches. The morning starts with a full breakfast buffet to get you going, followed by a day of skiing amidst the amazing terrain of the Alta Ski Area. Once back at the lodge you can enjoy apres-ski treats by the fire in our warm, spacious lobby and trade stories of the adventures of the day. Then you can head for the outdoor heated pool and two hot tubs to relax your muscles and watch the sun set behind Mount Superior. You may also choose to unwind in our bar, munching on popcorn and chatting with local skiers. Later, you can join other guests for dinner- family style seating- choosing from many masterfully prepared entrees each night, or enjoying the Grand Buffet on Saturday nights. You may complete the evening by catching a movie on our wide screen HDTV in the Alf Engen Room, or lounging by the fire in the main lobby, which is stocked with games, puzzles and books. Table tennis or foosball is also available in our game room. In short, every day is a full day at the Peruvian. Extra Person Fee- USD 109.00 to be collected at check-in Located in Salt Lake County, Utah, Alta is a ski resort, which draws 500,000 visitors annually. Here, skiers can enjoy its infamous powder and snowboard-free mountain.

3 reviews for Alta Peruvian Lodge, Alta
Great Lodge
By Captain Amazing, 01/07/09
First things first, let's get this straight - this is not some frou frou ski resort. Don't expect whirlpool bathtubs and marble counter tops. The Peruvian is a no-frills, utilitarian lodge with a friendly, helpful staff, and some pretty good food. They run two shuttles to take skiers back and forth from the slopes, and the drivers couldn't be nicer. They were constantly recommending the best slopes that they thought would have the best snow and smallest crowds. The dining room staff also offer similar recommendations. Everybody at the Peruvian is passionate about skiing, and the want to make sure the guests enjoy themselves as much as possible. There's a reason that the guests of the Peruvian have all been coming back year after year for 10+ years. You can't beat the price, and I've never met a friendlier staff.

this lodge is way past its prime
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/24/06
Years ago the Peruvian was quite nice but it has definitely changed for the worse. The parking lot has huge lagoon-sized potholes. A discarded mattress adorns the yard and spoils the view from the front guest rooms. The decor and level of maintenance are more akin to a fraternity house than a hotel. The waiters unapologetically announce shortages of wine, bread and beer (as in none). The prior guest's refuse greeted me in the wastebasket in my tiny, tiny room. Bathroon tiles and thresholds are cracked and missing. Carpets are frayed and not frequently vacuumed. The pool and lounge areas are gathering places for heavy drinking and loud behaviour by both guest groups and locals, who apparently have unrestricted access to amenities that guests pay dearly for. The lobby furniture is not straightened; newpapers and playing cards are scattered around and seldom cleaned up. The list goes on. I would say the Peruvian is more a youth hostel than a lodge, and is it is way overpriced.

The Peruvian is great!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/30/04
Such a friendly comfortable place with great food, outdoor pool and hot tub. Easy and convenient. Nice bar, in house ski shop, and store. Everybody keeps coming back year after year.
