Franz Klammer Lodge Testimonials

We first bought in the Franz Klammer Lodge in 2005 due to the excellent representation of Janice Gerona.  After a couple of years we decided that we wanted to spend more time in Mountain Village and needed  something that we could use more frequently. Janice was able to sell our 3 BR in a few weeks and we moved on to another property. We eventually realized that we could not spend as much time in Mountain Village as we previously thought, thus we sold our other property. After a couple of years we really missed our trips of hiking and skiing, etc. I gave Janice a call to discuss our new plans which were to utilize the many reciprocal opportunities available through the Franz Klammer. Janice as usual made it happen and we were  owners again in less than three weeks. - Mr. & Mrs. Watts, Amelia Island, FL

We've been owners at the Franz Klammer for 7 years now and have loved every visit! The staff are incredibly friendly, you can't beat the beautiful views, and the skiing is perfect. We are from LA, so aren't used to the freezing weather, but with the option to check in your shoes at the bottom of the mountain, put your ski boots on, and get right on the lift makes the skiing process incredibly easy. Hot chocolate is waiting for you back at the lodge, and there are plenty of delicious food options in the village. There are comfortable campfires, movies and games to rent, and jacuzzis on almost every floor.  The rooms are large and feel like home. The beds are very comfortable and the living room makes for easy lounging and family time by the fire. The master bathrooms have large bath tubs, and the shower pressure is great.  We also almost always use their spa. You can make a massage appointment same day, so if you get sore from skiing, you can come back and make an appointment very easily. They have steam rooms and oxygen therapy if you are interested as well.  We come with friends, and everyone enjoys the relaxing stay. Some friends are skiers, some are snowboarders, and some are neither. There's something for everyone here. Beautiful hiking trails, unique shops in town, ski lessons, spa treatments, you name it.  Overall, the Franz Klammer is the best stay in mountain village. You can't beat the staff's smiles and willingness to make your stay even better than the last! - Doreen Gelfand

I have been an owner for about one year. In that time my family has had a tremendous experience. During the summer, we stayed at the Fairmont in Lake Louise, Banff, and Calgary. As President's Club members, we received upgrades to extremely luxurious suites and Gold Floor privileges. Franz Klammer member services was responsive and helpful, and always available to answer any question we had.  We also recently returned from a week stay at FKL over the holidays. Telluride is our favorite ski resort, and the FKL makes it even more special. The amenities, including proximity to the slopes, ski valet (which keeps hot cocoa on hand), the pool, spa and hot tub all enhanced our vacation. The staff members are all friendly and helpful. We have only good things to say about our experience. We are looking forward to staying at FKL this summer and enjoying the multitude of outdoor activities Telluride has to offer. - Nancy Lard

"our experience with the exchange program has been superb.    At the Savoy, in London, as we stepped out of the cab we were greeted by name and our luggage whisked away.   Our suite with complimentary champagne, fresh fruit and cookies had two large rooms, one and a half baths and overlooked the Thames.    Simon the butler, was very helpful and the concierge procured tickets to "sold out" shows.    Mr and Mrs. Singer

Franz Klammer lodge is the ultimate experience for the busy person who wants to relax and let someone else do the planning, reservation booking and generally meet your every need- even fix the TV for tech dummies like me. Great staff and beautiful place!  E. Yarrell

This is our first year as owners and staying at Franz Klammer over Christmas New Year. Fantastic location.  Staff excellent. Nothing ever a problem . Curious, efficient, friendly .  New ski valet closer to the slopes is exceptional . - Marc, Australia

My family has been coming to the Klammer for 12 years. In all that time the quality of the facilities and the services has remained outstanding. That, in addition to the amazing beauty and limitless activities in and around Telluride, is what keeps our family coming back year after year. - Ralph Carter

We have been owners at Fairmont Heritage Place Franz Klammer Lodge since 2002 and have never regretted our decision to buy. In fact, we love it so much we purchased an additional fractional share in 2012. FKL was still being run by the developer when we originally bought in and having the association with Fairmont has been an added benefit. We have only traded time once (we love coming to Telluride so much!), but when we did trade it was a great experience. We have taken advantage of the ALL Accor Liv Limitless benefits many, many times and always get a preferential rate AND usually get a great upgrade.  Telluride is such a special, welcoming place. The skiing is fabulous, as are the golf and hiking the rest of the year. But what really is exceptional is the level of service we as members receive from the staff at FKL. I have never seen a place where the concept of customer service is better understood and executed. We feel so welcomed there that even though it is a fractional ownership, we absolutely view the FKL as our second home. - The Weslings, Austin TX

While we love the Klammer and Telluride, we have especially enjoyed the opportunity to exchange Colorado stays for visits to Angkor Wat, Boston, Istanbul, London, Paris, Phnom Penh, Singapore, and Washington DC in Raffles and Fairmont hotels as well as Pender Island (British Columbia) and Cashiers (North Carolina) using The Registry Collection. Each of these off-site stays has been unique. Most recently we were at the Raffles in Istanbul where we not only had a very spacious suite but, more importantly, delightful interactions with all of the hotel staff, especially our floor butler, who introduced us to a new culture and cuisine and greatly enhanced our visit to their city. It was like being with the staff family at the Klammer. - Jeff Marsh

I have been a owner for almost 10 years Fkl staff is the best surely feel like family in every respect hats off thank you!  - owner from Boca Raton, FL
