The Cloudveil, Autograph Collection

The Cloudveil opened in Jackson in 2021, three floors and 96 rooms close enough to Town Square that guests can make coffee from the in-room espresso machine, look out over the city, and be among the shops within minutes. That position, steps from the square and near the ski lifts, puts an easy walk between the room and the Jackson Hole and Greater Yellowstone Visitor Center, under a mile to Snow King Resort and the National Elk Refuge, plus a complimentary ski shuttle for the days a car feels like too much. Winter brings ski passes, a ski school and gear storage; the rest of the year, bike rental, fishing, hiking and a picnic area cover the valley beyond downtown. The outdoor pool and 24-hour fitness center handle the après-ski hours, and The Bistro, Gavin Fine and Roger Freedman's Parisian brasserie with an oyster bar and zinc bar, covers breakfast through dinner without needing to leave the building. Rooms carry cable television, free Wi-Fi and safes as standard, with fireplaces in several categories and balconies on the One Bedroom Suites that open onto a view of the town. A traveller arriving with a dog will find the hotel ready for it, deposit required; one hoping to talk the front desk into a late checkout past 11am will not. Concierge staff work in English, French and Spanish, useful in a town that pulls an international crowd toward its parks. Skiers who want a proper dinner reservation without driving for it will understand the appeal immediately; anyone picturing a rustic mountain cabin should look further up the valley. Three floors, 96 rooms, built in 2021 steps from Jackson's Town Square, with a ski shuttle to the lifts and Gavin Fine's Bistro downstairs. Suits skiers who want a proper dinner without driving; not those wanting a rustic cabin or a checkout past 11am.
