Check your plane ticket: Sonnenalp Hotel is located just outside of Vail Village, but the décor may make you think you landed in Germany instead. The four-generations-old ski lodge excels at creating a cozy, comfortable environment for guests returning from a day on the slopes (the lodge enjoys exclusive access to the ski concierge at Gondola 1) – rooms are decked out in old-school plaid, with custom-made Bavarian furniture, gas log fireplaces, and heated marble floors. Biomat can be added to a range of massage treatments to soothe sore muscles with far infrared heat and prepare the body for the next day's fresh powder.

Our visit somehow immediately felt like home and we were only there one night. The coziness of the Sonnenalp paired with the absolutely welcoming and friendly service was truly comforting and will be forever memorable. We loved all the ammenities: a tasty breakfast in a gorgeous sunroom, lounging by the pool/river, hanging by the fire in the library, relaxing on our gorgeous patio. The location couldn't have bene more convenient for walking through town and to the Ford Ampitheatre. It was a sensational visit from check in to check out with extreme hospitality shared along the way.

We have been visiting the Sonnenalp Vail for many years and we will continue to do so. They provide approachable luxury which I appreciate so much when traveling with children.

Summertime in Vail is magical. Staying at the beautiful Sonnenlap is always a treat- great staff and the best location in Vail Village. Pool time surrounded by mountains is an added pleasure.

The Sonnenalp is remarkable on every level. We have been coming back for over 30 years because of the beautiful ambiance, incredible level of service, wonderful amenities, and over-the-top breakfast buffet. It is in perfect & beautiful location in Vail right on Gore Creek that is convenient to all things in the Vail valley. I also brought several conference groups here in the past, and it was a great site for that as well. You'll never regret arranging a stay for business, weddings, or just the ultimate escape for pleasure.

We had a rehearsal dinner and everything went perfectly! The Ludwig was beautiful and the employees were friendly, kind, professional and accommodating. The chef did an excellent job in serving us with a meal of a 5 star restaurant. The apps and desserts were fabulous. Kasha Dunne helped us coordinate the event & worked on every detail! She was incredible! I would highly recommend this resort!
