Location
Sonnenalp is a dream destination in Vail for those who love great amenities and a perfect location. The hotel is located in the heart of Vail Village, right outside one of the shuttle stops that are free and take you between villages. The location is just right, a quick walk over to Lions Head and close to the village events, shops and restaurants. You can't beat the location being in central Vail and if you’re staying in Vail Village, this is the place to stay. The hotel location is prime and in the heart of Vail Village and the ambiance is perfect. Guests loved the views, spa and local shopping and the style of the resort is amazing. If you love Vail and live there part-time, Sonnenalp is the perfect place to experience everything the village has to offer.

Breakfast
Sonnenalp offers a variety of breakfast options including their outstanding Ludwig's breakfast restaurant. Guests highly recommend making a reservation for Ludwig's as the food and service are marvelous. However, be aware that Ludwig's may be closed for construction at times. While some guests found the breakfast restaurant to be pricey for what was offered, others found the breakfast to be beyond amazing and fantastic. Some guests preferred sit-down service over the buffet option, but those who tried the buffet at Ludwig's found it to be outstanding with a variety of tasty options including avocado toast and lox and bagel. Despite some mixed reviews, breakfast at Sonnenalp is definitely worth trying.

Dinner
Sonnenalp's dinner options have received mixed reviews from guests. While some were disappointed with the food selection and closure of the Swiss Chalette restaurant during the summer, others found the food delicious and enjoyed wonderful dinners at the Swiss Chalet and Bully Ranch. However, some guests mentioned long wait times and unhappy staff, which created a stoic vibe. Despite this, there were exceptional food and service experiences. Those with lactose intolerance may find the fondue-heavy menu at the Swiss Chalet challenging, but breakfast at Ludwig's and dinner at Bully Ranch were both good options.

Rooms
The Sonnenalp offers beautiful and spacious rooms with a refined rustic look and great views of the mountains. The property has a unique setting and there are lots of storage and hangers for clothes. The beds and linen are comfortable and the bathrooms are well-equipped with travertine tile floors, heated floors and massive tubs. However, some rooms may need refurbishing and updating such as USB plugs, tea-making facilities and better lighting. Some guests also note that some rooms can be a bit too dark. Additionally, some guests had negative experiences with the rooms with issues such as low ceilings, difficult-to-control thermostats and terrible views of the parking lot, but these instances seem to be rare. Overall, guests recommend booking the one-room suites as they provide added comfort and separation between living areas.

Beds
If you're looking for a comfortable stay at a hotel, Sonnenalp is a great option. Guests have raved about the quality of the rooms, linens and bath towels. The beds are comfortable and they're even turned down every night with slippers and robes laid out for you. While some have mentioned squeaky beds and dated furniture, overall the beds are described as comfy. The only downside is that some guests would have preferred plusher pillows, as feather pillows were provided. Despite the occasional mattress that felt too hard and old, the unique chimney in the room made up for it. So if you're after a good night's sleep, Sonnenalp's comfortable beds are definitely worth considering for your next stay.

Cleanliness
Sonnenalp is a hotel where cleanliness is taken seriously. Guests rave about the well-managed and well-maintained facilities, describing their experience as cozy, comfortable and beautiful. The housekeeping staff is commended as doing a really nice job in keeping the suites spacious and clean, providing guests with everything they need. The property is immaculately clean and the bathroom was very nice.

Don't miss out on the views, spa and local shopping during your stay at Sonnenalp.

Pool
Sonnenalp's pool area is phenomenal, much to the delight of its guests. It features three spas, two outdoor and one indoor, as well as an indoor-outdoor pool, hot tubs and bar service. Working from the pool and hot tub is a stress-free experience and the hotel even delivers lunch to the pool area. Although one guest found their $80 food order steep, it's clear that Sonnenalp provides excellent pool-side service. However, a few guests found the pool area to be dirty, disorganized and uncomfortable due to ongoing maintenance work. Despite these exceptions, the majority of guests appreciate Sonnenalp's beautiful pool area, making it a true highlight of the hotel.
