Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a cozy vibe, with small but charming European-style rooms that made us feel right at home. The service was efficient and friendly, making our stay truly enjoyable. Its unbeatable location, steps away from Gondola One and Vail Village's vibrant dining and nightlife scene, added to the overall experience. Although the dining options were tasty, the breakfast room experience was a bit crowded on one occasion. Overall, a delightful stay marred slightly by the bustling breakfast room.
The hotel felt like a cozy little home, with brand new mattresses and pillows that made it so comfortable. It was well-equipped and close to everything. The staff was very accommodating and pleasant, offering tons of local recommendations. The location couldn't have been better, near Vail Village and the Gondola. The dining was fabulous, although a bit light. Overall, a great value for money experience.
My stay at the hotel was quite nice overall. The rooms were very generous and comfortable, although they seemed a bit old and worn out. The service was extremely helpful and friendly, making me feel welcomed. The location was perfect, offering quick access to slopes and Vail Village, but there was a slight incident during breakfast one morning. The dining experience was adequate, with a good selection of items. The facilities met my expectations and added to the convenience of my stay.
