Great place to come to relax. The spa was perfect and the staff was friendly

Amazing service!

This property is luxurious and cozy. We spent a few days lounging between the spa facilities, in the room by the fireplace, and around the area of Vail. Room service was quick, staff was friendly and helpful, and the concierge was a great resource! Transportation around the city was simple too with a bus running so constantly!

Overall good experience. Some parts need updating. It appeared that construction was happening. There was a wedding reception that night while we were there. It seems like there always is a wedding at these nicer type hotels or a business conference.

We love the Sonnenalp and will be back. Everything was great. We were disappointed that Ludwig's was closed but understand. The service at the Swiss Chalet was a bit off we thought which was surprise given the very high level of service we have come to expect. Still an awesome respite for us.

Our favorite! Can’t wait to go back soon and enjoy this fine place!

A great hotel, nice location, and wonderful staff. Concierge gave great advice.

Wonderful and so accommodating--we love coming here

Heated bathroom floors, spacious rooms, this hotel is the definition of luxury!

Love the sonnenalp. Using the pool/spa facility is always enjoyable here. The rooms are a bit dated. Perfect place to stay in the off season, quite expensive during ski season

The best place in Vail. You feel at home here. Very relaxing experience with a wonderful staff. Simply put, this is an amazing property that will leave you feeling refreshed. This was my 4th stay here and I can't wait to return.

Beautiful hotel in Vail Village, everything about our stay was perfect. We travel quite frequently, and this hotel was easily at the top of our list of nicest hotels-5 out of 5 in every category. The grounds are just gorgeous, the spa is awesome, and the staff was so friendly and helpful! Stay here!!!

The Sonnenalp is a first-class hotel with all the amenities. The entire hotel is so well designed, with a great lobby, library, lounge (live music every night), and dining rooms... Our favorite was the casual Bully Ranch bar/restaurant. The Sonnenalp breakfast was fantastic, with an amazing variety of fresh fruits, meats, homemade breads & pastries. The hotel is about a five-minute walk to ski lifts, but the Sonnenalp has a ski concierge located right next to Gondola One, where you store your skis, poles, snowboard, and boots (with air dryers), and attentive staff. We were also very impressed that the owner, Johannes Faessler was a visible friendly presence, making sure that everyone was happy, and willing to chat and answer any questions. He has to be one of the top hoteliers in Vail & the Rockies!
