Alpine Skiing Co. (ASC) has closed on a property in Ketchum, Idaho, which will be developed as a new Limelight Hotel, modeled after the company’s existing property in Aspen. The property is located near Sun Valley’s River Run base of Bald Mountain.
ASC purchased the Limelight in Aspen, which features large guestrooms, an open lounge, and lobby restaurant, in 2010.
“We believe that the Limelight would be a great fit for this site and the community,” says Don Schuster, ASC’s vice president of hospitality. “We feel the timing is right to grow the Limelight brand and that this property in downtown Ketchum is an ideal location.”
Current entitlements include 119 hotel rooms and suites plus 11 free market residential units. ASC will ask the city for some minor modifications to the approved project to better reflect the Limelight brand, including a reconfiguration of the main floor.
