We spent 7 nights at Goldminer's, and it was just fantastic! The location can't be beaten, the staff is lovely and the food is very good. Everything is very convenient, from ski shop in site, ski lockers, spacious and comfortable rooms and the Saloon, where you can have a quick lunch in the quiet while watching the slopes and enjoy the après ski. Alta ski area is a dream, and needs no comments. It's our second time at Goldminer's Lodge, with more to come.

Perfect experience

Great Lodge.  Convenient to the Collins lift.  Friendly hotel staff.  Breakfast and Dinner was delicious and wait staff is friendly.  GMD is a throwback to the old fashion ski lodges.  Relax in the bar and the hot tubs while discussing your ski day with other guests.

Great Lodge at Alta Ski Resort.

A perfect place to call home for time on the mountain. The food is great and very plentiful with a lot of choices. The location can't be beat (after a few hours on the mountain it's easy to come down for something to eat, hang by the fireplace then head out for the afternoon and grab the last chair.) The snacks in the saloon were always welcome. The staff is super helpful. It's a skier's lodge so not for someone looking for the resort experience with shopping and luxury. Our room was comfy and perfect for our needs. 

Perfect for Alta skiers.

For many decades we stayed at Alta Lodge.  Goldminer’s  was regarded as a less desirable somewhat downscale alternative.  But  for this visit Alta Lodge was full.  We did not intend to stay in the absurdly expensive Rustler or new Snowpine—fine for the investment bankers but not for us.  We were thrilled with Goldminer’s.  My room , 301, was easily the equivalent of the East wing at.Alta Lodge.  Food was almost equivalent to Alta Lodge, perhaps because Goldminer’s hired the chef from Alta Lodge.  Service was amazing—helpful and interested.  Location is better than any lodge at Alta.  Wr will return!

Far exceeded expectations

GMD has been our go to for the past six years.  Despite reduced staff in restaurant due to COVID, I want to mention how hard the young men and women work to serve.  Several of them had returned from last year (Elizabeth, Berry and Cass).  Luke, George and Thomas.  Thank you for your kindness.  We wish you all the best in your next season adventure!

Repeat guests

I love the GMD.  Oiur ski group does an annual trip so I may be a little bias.  Great value, close to Collins chair.  Fine breakfast and dinner included.  It is an old time ski feel.  Friendly staff mostly young skiers.  Friendly guests willing to share good nugs about their ski days and powder finds.  

Another great stay at the GMD

First trip to Alta and was tipped off to this hotel by Alta reservations.  I nabbed a last minute room and the guide told me "it's close to the lifts".  Well, that was an understatement!  It is 25 yards, maximum to the Collins lift - the best one!  So good in fact, that we were able to put our skis in line at 7:00 and go back inside the hotel for breakfast and come back out later to take the 3rd chair up!  

Price seems high, but then you realize you get breakfast and dinner and all the amenities. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful.  The food was good and the vibe was retro - we will definitely be back!

Quirky stay...loved every minute of it!

Alta is one of the worlds premier ski destinations and the Gold Miners is as close as it gets. You can gauge the lift lines from your window or the coffee shop and make your call “first tracks and wait in the warmth?” And if the altitude is getting to you, that short walk is sweet. 
Breakfast and dinner included. Meals are simple and hearty.  Staff is friendly. 
Did I mention it is 25 ft from the lift?

25 feet from Collins Lift

Overall, I had an exceptional time at Goldminer's Daughter Lodge. The rates were very competitive, the room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast and dinners were delicious & plentiful, and most of the employees were kind and helpful.

I wish I could have given this stay 5 stars (it deserves it), but I must provide honest feedback about my grievances regarding EDDIE, the manager of this establishment. Although he remained professional throughout the interaction, he was uninterested in helping me with my blight of having an SUV stuck in 20 inches of fresh snow. His only solution was to tell me to "take a shovel and deal with it yourself. We're busy. If you don't finish, you can continue working on it after you get back from skiing at 4 PM." His response was very dismissive, rushed, and condescending. He didn't even extend the courtesy of asking someone from his team to help. After shoveling snow for 20 minutes, I see him sitting at reception, doing nothing. This is an absolutely UNACCEPTABLE attitude towards guests.

However, as a saving grace, the other employees at Goldminer's Daughter Lodge were PHENOMENAL. Two different employees noticed me struggling to shovel snow and immediately got a shovel and helped me. If not for these kind folks, I would have missed my flight.

Overall Phenomenal, except for manager EDDIE

Great location at a magnificent mountain. Family vibe is surviving C19. Best of Gold Miners is the Staff and the Dining. Could use some updating in furnishings and aesthetics but then again it’s part of the family charm. 
Shout out to George,Luke,and Berry in the Dining Room...Great service and great attitudes.
Highly recommended
