Operations

Stein Collection is dedicated to honoring the Forbes standards and maintaining our culture of excellence to create an unforgettable guest experience. Our legacy began with the completion of the first luxury lodging establishment in Deer Valley, the iconic Stein Eriksen Lodge. Thirty-five years later, Stein Collection has grown to include three additional luxury properties, The Chateaux Deer Valley, The Residences at The Chateaux Deer Valley, and the new Stein Eriksen Residences. All team members across all properties are trained in the same intensive Stein Way training in order to guarantee consistent high standards and service throughout our Collection.

Sales & Marketing

​The Stein Collection approach to direct sales combines friendly sales calls with third-party lead generation relationships to expand our networking abilities by market segment. Our team works closely with each hotel to develop, implement, and monitor property-specific action plans which include direct sales, familiarization trips, and marketing initiatives, all designed to leverage the strength of the brand and the specific niches held by any one hotel. We have success in targeting specific opportunities for revenue growth and index penetration by identifying these demand times early. Progress is monitored through traditional matrices while remaining agile in our execution to ensure every opportunity is exploited.
