Grand Teton National Park has some of America’s most spectacular mountain scenery. It’s got a number of beautiful alpine lakes and 12 of its rocky peaks have glaciers. Although somewhat overshadowed in fame by Yellowstone National Park, it’s by no means a second choice when it comes to beauty. If anything the fact that Yellowstone draws the crowds away is a plus as Grand Teton is far less busy. Like Yellowstone, Grand Teton is a haven for wildlife: expect to see moose, elk, bison, grouse, marmot and maybe even a bald eagle or a bear or two. Many of the best hotels near Grand Teton National Park are located in and around Jackson Hole which means that visitors also benefit from being able to access the ski resorts around there. The hotel scene here is of a high standard and there is plenty to choose from. Therefore, our Hotel Gurus have compiled a concise collection of their favourite properties in the area.
