Visitor Reviews of Portillo

Greg -
On July 11th we were at 180cm of snow for a storm that eventually left 225cm. That provided a great base for the 130cm that we just got in last two days. The skiing is phenomonal, some of the best in recent memory for most people here. Tuesday and Wednesday are supposed to be big snow days again. As for work, the hotel is full of great folks from all over the world and as long as its not puking snow we have plenty of work and we're not going anywhere. To those one their way, we look forward to having you here and you should be excited.
