Manor Vail Lodge

My husband and I celebrated our 45th anniversary this past weekend at Manor Vail. Everything was perfect…the service, the location and all the many amenities. Our trip was a visit 45 years from when we lived there as a newly married couple. Vail is still fabulous and our trip was magical. Thank you Manor Vail for the great memories.

We stayed last year in August and returned this July. While the location is beautiful and convenient, the rooms are in serious need of updates - especially considering the price point. There is no air conditioning, and with no ceiling fans either, the rooms get uncomfortably hot, especially in the summer. Being on the first floor, we couldn’t leave the windows open for airflow, which made it feel like we were baking inside. The plug-in fan provided was so loud it made it hard to sleep, turning what was meant to be a relaxing weekend into a hot and noisy one. July is also a much busier time; the resort was full of families and kids, which made things a bit loud at all hours. If you’re looking for a quieter, more peaceful stay, late August is a better time to go. Additionally, the room felt dated and not very clean, there were visible carpet stains, and the pillows were overly firm and bulky, making them uncomfortable to sleep on. This place has potential, but they really need to invest in some basic upgrades to meet the expectations of summer guests.

Beautiful grounds, great location, lovely room and view, excellent staff. I plan on going back. Every part of our stay was exceptional.
