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.

The Sonnenalp is a true example of the very best in the hospitality industry. They always exceed expectations. Colorado is so fortunate to have them as a premier destination resort. The staff, accommodations, dining and facilities are the very best!

The room was comfortable and exceptionally clean. What truly made the experience special was the outstanding service. Every staff member we encountered was warm, welcoming, and genuinely eager to help. The breakfast was excellent, with a great selection of high-quality food and attentive service that made each morning enjoyable. From check-in to check-out, the entire team went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. If you’re looking for a hotel in Vail with exceptional hospitality, delicious breakfast, and friendly staff, I highly recommend this property.

We LOVE the Sonnenalp, we've been many times and my parents have been coming since it opened years ago. My personal favorite time to visit is the summer though anyone who loves to ski should try the winter as well. The resort is small enough to know you and feel intimate and not over crowded but large enough to offer all the things you want in a resort like pool, spa, multiple dinning options and more! It's quiet, beautiful, immaculately kept but truly, the staff is the crown jewel as many have worked there for almost a lifetime- which shows how the organization is taking good care of them so that they will take good care of their guests (and I can say they have since I was a child and now my children get the joy of their service!) Keep up the good work!
