So far, this stay has not met our expectations of The St. Regis Aspen... 1/19/2024 — Friday • This is my 27th time here, though not every time to this hotel. Typical stay is five or six nights, usually six, so we do consider ourselves regulars. • Although we checked in at almost 3 AM on our first night, they were very clear that if we didn't show up they were going to charge our credit card about $1700 PLUS TAX for one night of missed stay, so we did something kind of stupid, which was to rent a car and drive over Vail Pass, the Eisenhower Tunnel, and Glenwood Canyon — which was treacherous and stressful, and took just under seven hours from Denver international airport. • And of course, you-know-who had to listen to a barrage of comments about my bad judgment. • In the end though, I was complimented with doing a safe and competent drive, although my body is stiff and I don't feel great. • That first night (1/17/24), even though the thermostat was set at 71°, heat just kept pumping out and it was 81°F in our room, very uncomfortable, so we asked for some repair...maintenance guys spent a couple of hours in our room with us yesterday and this morning when we got up it was 53°F in here and so cold that I had to turn on the shower and the bathtub hot water just to get a little heat into the room which promptly steamed up everything as one might imagine. Basically we went from heat that doesn't shut off to air-conditioning that doesn't shut off. • There also was an incessant chirping coming through the wall from the next room, 515, and it apparently was a smoke detector but constant chirping and not just every minute or so like happens at home when a battery is dead. • Our other complaint revolves around the newly imagined spa, because we are used to spending about 20 minutes just going into the Jacuzzi for 10 minutes and into the sauna for 10 minutes as a complimentary benefit, given our titanium elite status with Bonvoy and our previous Platinum status with Starwood. And we only do that maybe three of the six nights we stay. However, they will not accommodate our request and instead want to charge us $90 each to sit in a Jacuzzi for 10 minutes. And, there is a 22% mandatory gratuity on top of that. This is not well run! I think a lot of the problem is that they consider that a "day-pass", and 20 minutes does not constitute a day. • Also, the Saint Regis BUTLER at the airport needs to be empowered to herself go check the storage areas with the airlines, since there's no point in standing in line with a zillion other people to file a baggage complaint when the suitcase is right there behind a closed door. • Finally, one of the elevators is out and they have been working on it and were not able to fix it yesterday and people are definitely complaining. • On the flipside, prior to arrival we had multiple messages from the concierge and also to advise us about Butler service, and it seems to me that they've done a really good job of drumming up
