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.

Went here with my girlfriend a few times last winter, with Gustavo as our waiter each time. He was incredibly fun, kind, and welcoming. Went back the last time just to say hi to him again. Would go back.

The Sonnenalp always exceeds our expectations. We return again and again and already can’t wait till the next time. The staff makes the trip for us… Kmar at the front desk, Rosa and Smara at Ludwig’s, John, Jeff and Andy at valet…The staff truly stands out from all the other 5 star hotels we’ve visited.

What a great experience. Stayed in a Gore Creek 1BR suite. It’s private on all 4 sides, with great views through the elevated windows and the balcony. Had modern touches (pop up LED / electric shades). Hotel staff is attentive, acts with urgency, and is friendly. Restaurants are amazing with the best brunch we have had in Vail. Live music in the lobby area at night made for a great way to end the day. We have stayed at all of the higher end hotels in Vail. This is easily the best value of them all and while a different feel than the others, our favorite overall.

A breath of fresh air in Vail. European experience in the heart of the America. Everyone make you feel so welcome. Wonderful rooms. Attentive staff. Amazing food.

The Sonnenalp is an exceptional hotel with complete facilities for staying in Vail. We enjoyed walking the streets and going to the Betty Ford park, but we couldn't wait to get back to the hotel. The ambience and furnishings are so comforting.
