I have stayed in several different properties in Vail and other nearby resorts. The Sonnenalp is without question my favorite. Forget the Marriott, Four Seasons and Ritz -- this is where you want to stay. Pros: - Classic European styling down to every detail. Close your eyes and open them in the hotel. You would think you were in the... More

This hotel is right in Vail Village and steps from fine dining, shopping, entertainment and the mountain. The service was superb. The bell men were top notch, every need was attended to and the concierge recommendations were great. Our daughter loved the live music in the evening. The pianist/singer was very talented. The accommodations were roomy, elegant and comfortable. We... More

We stayed in a junior suite and were floored when we saw the bathroom. It was easily as large as some hotel rooms in major cities. The staff (everyone from the valet, front desk staff, concierge, to housekeeping) were friendly and accommodating. I called in advance to see if there was an HDMI hookup on the TV, and they had...

A wonderful stay, great service, delicious breakfast & morning coffee, comfortable spaces. I was there for a wedding and enjoyed having everything so close by. The entire space was really well-suited for for the wedding. It was perfect. Next time, I'll be sure to book a massage while I'm there, and perhaps just stay a few days longer. A friend... More

We were at the Sonnenalp for a wedding on Memorial Day weekend this year and were quite impressed with this mid-sized idyllic Vail mountain retreat. They have a beautiful pool area (indoor/outdoor) surrounded by Aspen and Evergreens, with Gore Creek running by the edge of the property. As a family on a budget, we were looking to keep our expenditures... More

My wife and I stayed at the Sonnenalp for a one-night break-away from our care-giving duties and had a wonderful time. Everything about the Sonnenalp was beyond our expectations and made us very homesick for Europe. The reception staff, bellmen, restaurant and just every staff member we encountered was friendly, professional and welcoming in the most sincere manner. The construction,... More

We have stayed at the Sonnenalp many times over the years and it never fails to please our entire family. The place is very well maintained and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in a mid-sized charming hotel in central Vail village. A couple of notes: 1. The larger suites are well suited for families. Many... More

This is a review that I forgot to write last year. I enjoyed my second stay at the Sonnenalp much more than the first. The breakfast was excellent, the staff friendly and accomodating, and the room very nice with a great view of the stream, pool and woods. I will be back!

Absolutely gorgeous property that has done an impeccable job of carrying its brand identity throughout the resort, from staff service to furnishings to cuisine to the tiniest details and fixings in the room. We never did get the radiant heating in the bathroom to work, and the elevators are comically slow. Otherwise, not a complaint.
