One of my favorite hotel in the US. This place has great location access to Vail town. Everything is walking distance. Facility feels like I’m in the Disney Frozen movie. It’s warm, cozy, and comfortable. Their spa, pools, and library lounge are relaxing and well maintained. 10/10 would come back if I’m in the area.

Great location, very friendly staff. Lodgpole room’s balcony was over the vail village walkway, which had great views of the main street and mountains. Pillows are feather down which was not great for us. Upon checkout, we learned they have a foam one that you could request. Treff and Bully Ranch were onsite and good.
