About the Hotel
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.

Reviews for Sonnenalp Hotel
Lovely Stay at Sonnenalp
Our stay at the Sonnenalp was exactly what we were looking for. Located in a premier spot in Vail Village with excellent walkability both within the Village and to Lionshead. Our suite was immaculate and very spacious. The service and care provided by the staff though is what truly sets the Sonnenalp apart. From the moment we arrived the staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable — including greeting our toddler with a coloring book immediately upon check in. The turndown service and nightly cookies were a wonderful touch as well. We will definitely be returning to the Sonnenalp our next time in Vail.

Great for weddings!
We used Sonnenalp for out wedding ceremony and dinner. Absolutely outstanding. I was at a loss trying to find other venues in/around Vail that would not break the bank for a party of 16. The venue was beautiful and made very scenic back-drop for our photos. The event sales and event manager Huthesia was so kind and extremely helpful throughout the process, she made us feel completely taken care of. The dinner had generous portions and was delicious. Staff were all kind and accommodating. My husband and I even got to enjoy the spa afterwards. We will absolutely be back for our anniversaries!

European flair with US luxuries
Stunning property truly a fabulous resort. Location, Room , service and breakfast was phenomenal . Front desk , concierge and breakfast at Ludwig made it a place we will come back annually . One suggestion for improvement is spa can be made bigger and more inviting .

Best of Vail Valley
After staying at all the major luxury hotels in Vail, I can confidently say that the Sonnenalp is my favorite. The service is unparalleled, the rooms are impeccably clean, and the restaurants are the best in Vail Village. Could not recommend enough!
