PB hotel design editorial

At the foot of Bald Mountain in Ketchum, Idaho, where Sun Valley's ski runs are visible from nearly every room, a four-story building clad in stacked stone and dark steel framing brings a contemporary urban register to a mountain town more accustomed to timber-heavy lodge vernacular. The Limelight Hotel Ketchum, which opened in 2016 as part of Aspen Skiing Company's expansion of its Limelight brand beyond Colorado, was designed to sit comfortably within the downtown street grid while still gesturing toward the landscape that defines the valley. The facade's layered stonework and floor-to-ceiling glazing — visible in both the winter aerial and the summer pool terrace images — strike a balance between civic weight and mountain lightness that most ski-town hotels fail to achieve. Inside, the interiors work a palette of warm blond oak, dove-grey upholstery, and acid-yellow accent pillows — a color combination that carries through the lobby bar, with its plum-upholstered tub chairs and chartreuse ottomans, into the guestrooms, where low-platform beds with fabric headboards and built-in window benches frame unobstructed views toward the slopes. The 99-room property keeps its spatial language deliberately clean: rooms rely on natural light and the mountain panorama beyond French doors rather than decorative layering to establish character. The outdoor pool terrace, anchored by a concrete fire pit and bordered by the building's stacked-stone base, extends that same restrained warmth into the high-altitude summer season.

"We had an amazing stay and will be back. This place isn’t run by a mega corporation and it shows! Wonderful staff and hospitality. We will be back!"

"This was my first experience with any Limelight hotel. The staff was fantastic! From the easy check in to planning some adventures with the concierge, they took great care of us. The free hotel shuttle was super useful; they picked up and dropped us at the airport, drove us around town, and even dropped everything to run us to the hospital when we had an emergency. I've never experienced such good service from any hotel in my life. If I return to Ketchum in the future, the Limelight will be my first pick of where to stay."

"Amazing. We got a 2 bedroom suite / full apartment that in any major market would be 5-7K a night. Amazing experience. New. Clean. Quiet. Wolf appliances etc. Awesome staff. Blows the Knobb Hill Inn out of the water. This is the place to stay in Sun Valley. Only complaint is they don’t really have a gym; just a room with like a treadmill but no real issue; just a 15 minute walk straight shot down the street to a nice YMCA, which has everything. And it’s a beautiful walk! Alternatively, you can take one of their Audi’s or their on-sight SUV/driver."

"Pleasantly surprised by the comfortable ambiance and accommodating service here. More comfortable than most super luxury properties and far beyond what I'd expected."

"The Limelight Ketchum, ID is one of our best hotel experiences that I have had in some time. The property is located in a fabulous location, the hotel itself is in superb condition, breakfast was 110% great, and all staff could not have been more helpful. Thanks to ALL, it is deeply appreciated. Jana Mar"
