We were looking for a comfortable, reasonably priced hotel within an easy walk to the lift line, and the Lionshead Inn fit the bill beautifully. The room was a good size, clean and comfortable, parking on site, friendly staff. There was no restaurant, but we would have eaten elsewhere anyway...the Little Diner is across the street for breakfast, and all... More

I and my family have been going to the Lionshead Inn for many years. The staff are so friendly, happy to accomodate requests, and caring from the heart. The location is convenient for skiing, transportation, and great food. Vail CO at such a reasonable price is the perfect match. Exercise room, fuz ball, pool table, hot tub, and free hot... More

We have been staying here for about 10 years now. I don't think you'll find a better deal than this. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate throughout the day. Apples and granola bars in the a.m. and fresh cookies after skiing! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. You are not paying Marriot prices so don't expect those type of accommodations....

Room was ok, except the TV only worked for half of the stay. Hot Tub also was not working. In the words of the staff, "the bar is just for show," meaning no bar tender, no drinks of any kind. Hotel phone went unanswered when I requested help with the TV. When I went down to the front desk to... More

The hotel is quite a bit nicer than I expected based on some of the reviews and the location puts it in walking distance of the slopes and restaurants. The staff is super friendly and the hotel and rooms were nice enough - if a bit dated. Two things kept this from being a better experience. I'd strongly recommend a... More

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Lionshead Inn. The hotel management were friendly and helpful. While the building is older and not as hip as other places in Vail, it is clean and spacious and the location is fantastic. We were offered an upgrade to a slope-view room (well worth the $20). The hotel room was large... More

We have been coming to Vail for skiing vacation for many years. Every time we have been staying at the Lionshead Inn. Excellent location, only few minutes walking distance to the Gondola. Continental breakfast, and afternoon tea with freshly baked cookies are nice perks. The hotel is older, but rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is friendly and very... More

I stayed at Lionshead Inn with friends in late February for a ski vacation. We chose Lionshead Inn because of the price and location - at $300/night it was the cheapest and closest option we could find to Vail Mountain, within walking distance of the Gondola. The pictures online are all very accurate. It's an older hotel that is badly... More

The Lionshead Inn is the best value in Vail. The staff is very responsive, the rooms and common areas are clean, and the hot tub is always ready. It is not fancy and it certainly shows its age, but for real skiers who want to comfortable spot that is close to the lifts there is simply no better value. The... More
