Hi,
my boyfriend and I are looking into a trip to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons from the UK. I%26#39;ve got some really great information from this site with regard to which aiport to fly into, what to do etc.
BUT - while I%26#39;m a backpack and mountain girl my boyfriend is a 5+* hotel guy. We try to combine 10 days activity with 5 days chill out on our holidays. By chill out I mean stay somewhere nice, pool to relax by, few things to see and do and good restaurants. Has anyone got any suggestions where we could do that in combination with visiting the two parks?
Thanks in advance!

Does in need to be in that general area? How far might you be willing to travel to be able to chill?

We%26#39;re willing to travel to a certain degree (!) I think ideally we%26#39;d be either looking for somewhere either near the parks on somewhere that we can fly to/from Jackson Hole. I%26#39;ve found flights to Jackson Hole from Chicago and Las Vegas so far...not sure about Chicago and if we did Las Vegas then I%26#39;d have to do the Grand Canyon...so few vacation days, so many places to visit :-(
A friend did suggest we chill out in the parks but if I%26#39;m in the park I%26#39;d want to be hiking/biking/horse-riding!
Maybe Denver??? You could stay in the city, do shopping, restaurants, sports... PLUS... you could visit Boulder, which could combine great restaurants and a short hike!!!
Have fun planning.
If you could be in Denver on a weekend night, try the downtown Residence Inn. We found a great weekend rate there. It is right on the 16th street mall and it was rated #1 on the TA hotel reviews for Denver. I don%26#39;t think it is 5 star, but there are many great restuarants in the area and lots of shopping options.
Weeangel, you might also look at Salt Lake City as a chill out spot. There are some very nice hotels there, good restaurants, and interesting sightseeing in the downtown area.
