Luxury ski-in/ski-out resort at the base of Vail Mountain

Location & First Impressions

Lodge At Vail sits 200 metres from Gondola One, the main ski lift into Vail Mountain, and is placed directly within Vail Village. The hotel, built as Vail's first property, offers a ski pass sales point, ski storage, and a ski valet that takes equipment to the gondola each morning. Guests reach shops, restaurants, and the Roosevelt National Forest for outdoor activities directly from the lobby.

Rooms & Suites

The 165 rooms and suites use mahogany and marble accents, with some units offering a spa bath, balcony, or patio. Panoramic mountain and village views are standard, and each room includes a flat-screen TV, bathrobes, and slippers. Select rooms feature a seating area, and the property provides complimentary high-speed internet throughout.

Dining Options

Elway's Restaurant serves award-winning hand-cut prime steaks, Colorado lamb, and fresh fish, backed by a wine list of over 350 selections. Cucina offers mountain-comfort cuisine, and Pool One Bar & Grill operates during summer months. Two restaurants and a bar are on-site, with happy hour and wine/champagne available.

Spa & Wellness

The full-service spa offers couples massage, body treatments, facials, and steam room sessions, plus a spa lounge and relaxation area. An outdoor heated pool and multiple hot tubs are open year-round, and a 24-hour fitness centre provides top-of-the-line equipment. Guests can also use the sauna, spa/wellness packages, and waxing services.

Ski & Family Activities

Skiing is accessible directly from the hotel via Gondola One, with ski school and ski storage on-site. Families can use board games, babysitting/child services, and a kid-friendly buffet. The hotel also offers horse riding nearby, and daily complimentary treats are available in the lobby.

“The Lodge at Vail strikes an engaging balance between elevated comfort and a genuine Alpine lodge atmosphere, evident in touches like the thoughtful afternoon treats and the inviting lobby fireplace. Its village-central location is a distinct advantage, particularly for ski access, though proximity to the lifts means embracing the Vail parking reality. While minor room upkeep is noted, the overall sentiment points to a property that prioritizes a warm guest welcome and a convenient, appealing stay.”
