Marriott Vail Resort & Spa

Vail, Colorado

Virgin rating

The hotel

A fabulous mountain resort with excellent ski and spa facilities. European in style, the Vail Marriott exudes charm and personality. Everything’s in walking distance including the gondola to whisk you off to ski runs galore. The hotels Golden Leaf Spa offers a range of treatments – the perfect antidote to an action-packed day on the slopes! There is also fabulous dining in Vail but First Chair Cafe probably does the best buffet breakfast in town - the choice is extensive. Come sundown, Avalanche Pub is an après ski hot spot; soak up the atmosphere awhile before feasting on American fare over at the cosy, laid-back 7one5.

My significant other and I celebrated our two year anniversary at the Hythe in January and had the most wonderful experience! Shout outs to Rowan and Leslie at check-in and to Chris and Charlie at the concierge …. You made our stay magical! From the moment we arrived at ballet through to check in, the amazing suite, and the whole hotel experience we were in awe. Being in the Jacuzzi outdoors in the freezing cold weather was the cherry on top of an already amazing stay. Retiring to our room and sitting in front of the fireplace was even better! Thank you so much for being such a special part of our anniversary trip! Read less

Staying at this hotel was amazing - the hotel itself is beautiful, the rooms are great and the location is ideal, especially if you are planning to ski! The thing though that sets it apart is their staff - they were all gracious, helpful and did everything they could to make our stay outstanding! We look forward to returning again soon!!

My husband and I decided to stay at the Hythe Luxury Collection during the holiday season. The location of this hotel is fantastic, and the staff provide exceptionally friendly service. What makes our stays even more delightful is seeing our old friends working at the bar, Nick from Illinois and Alex from Macedonia. Over the years, we have come to know these staff members well, and it is an extra treat to be recognized and engage in pleasant conversations with them. The hotel offers a wonderful breakfast buffet, along with top-notch restaurants, bars, and a market. The quality of the food is superb, and while the prices are on the higher end, it is expected given the location and the effort to source fresh ingredients. Seating could be a bit chaotic especially on weekends. Marriott Bonvoy elite members can opt in for breakfast, and I highly recommend it over 1000 Bonvoy points. The amenities are excellent. The hotel conveniently takes our skis to Lionshead, saving us the hassle, even though it is only a short five-minute walk. The gym is well-equipped with various options, and there are refreshments like fruits and bottled water available. Valet parking, luggage services, and the check-in/check-out processes are all very streamlined and efficient. We had a little problem in using an Amex gift card. Julia, the front-desk manager has been instrumental in communication even after the checkout. Overall, our experience at the Hythe Luxury Collection was outstanding, and we will definitely return over and over again. Read less

When I stay in Vail, this is my go to hotel a short walk to the Eagle Bahn gondola in lionshead you can walk across the street and go to the little diner, which is one of the best breakfasts you can get in Vail great pool, hot tub, and spa! There is a free shuttle stop directly in front of the hotel to get you anywhere you need to go in Vail plus a first come first serve driver shuttle. If you’re parking a car, you don’t really need it if you want an incentive not to have a car $60 of parking would be it in addition to $60 per night resort fee. What you’re my only gripes about this hotel. The rooms are sizable plenty of places to stow your gear if you need it I do recommend using the mountainside ski valet way easier. If you have status, the breakfast is great not sure that I would pay for it but my go to happens to be the little diner. The resort staff are excellent. Read less
