Cons
Located 37 miles from Eagle County Regional Airport
Children under 16 have restricted access to certain spa facilities
“Here's my take: this hotel recreates a charming alpine village atmosphere in Vail, complete with luxury suites that families would find especially comfortable. I noticed they focus on traditional European hospitality, right down to the authentic Swiss dining. Beyond the prime ski access, the hotel's holistic spa and riverside pools really caught my eye.”
