Excellent Stay!!!!
Can’t say enough of how accommodating The Galatyn Lodge was. Jodi, Josh, and Bridgett, could not have been any better. I would stay at the Galatyn Lodge again for sure. Super clean, spacious, and parking was excellent. Conveniently located! This place is a no brainer!

Will Stay Again
Highly recommend staying at the Galatyn Lodge. More private/less crowded than the other options yet still right in Vail Village. Heated pool is basically a huge hot tub, ski locker very convenient for storing gear, quick walk to Gondola One. Can walk everywhere from the lodge as it's directly in Vail Village near all the shops and restaurants - we didn't touch the car until we left which was stored safely and easily in the underground garage. Employees were super friendly and helpful - can not say enough about the staff. Room itself was cozy and the bed was extremely comfortable. We checked out Sunday morning but had plans to ski so the staff let us keep our car in the garage, our gear in the ski locker and even gave us a pass to go to an awesome spa/locker room to shower and clean up after skiing/before our drive home. If you like a large hotel feel with a big lobby that has a bar and lots of people, this is not for you, but if you prefer a more secluded, quiet, luxury, easy experience and value convenience and comfort over all else, the Galatyn Lodge is perfect for you. Might regret writing this review if the Galatyn gets more popular and is full all winter! Without a doubt will book Galatyn Lodge for my next trip to Vail.

Everything is perfect!
The Galatyn Lodge was simply the best place I have stayed at during a ski trip. The place is clean, very organized, and the location is perfect. It is almost ski-in/ski-out (within one block). Also, there is a bus stop right in front of the Lodge that runs every 3min and is one stop away from Golden Peak (if you don't want to walk that one block). The amenities are perfect. Ski lockers are in the lobby (so no walking up/down stairs), very clean and organized, and stocked daily with snacks, hand warmers, chapsticks, and sun screens. Finally, the service and staff are outstanding. On the 2nd night of our stay we had a leak in the bathroom. Within 10min of alerting the manager to the problem, he showed up with new sets of keys to another room and helped us relocate. I will definitely go back to this place on next trip to Vail.

Great find in Vail Village!
This was a great find! It was a clean and overall comfortable place to stay, with a location that is impossible to beat. Plus, it's dog friendly! The pool was beautiful and warm for a wonderful evening swim. Parking across the street was easy (the garage was full). Josh, the assistant property manager, was incredibly accommodating and helpful. My only complaints are that the bed is a serious rock and is very noisy. Also, the desk chair is ready for replacement. The room is also desperately in need of a mini fridge and a fan. But, overall, I'd recommend this property, and we do hope to stay here again!

The staff a Galattn is super friendly/helpful, and very welcoming to our dog. The room was well appointed, comfortable, and quiet. We appreciated the parking garage since over 30 inches of snow fell while we were there. The location is an easy walk to either the Golden Peak or Vail village lifts.

Best Hotel, Free Parking and affordable resort fee
The team at the Galatyn lodge when above and beyond to ensure I had a great stay at their hotel. They were very good about communication prior to arrival and proved to be excellent at ensuring I had a convenient check in process. The hotel was impeccably clean, all common areas, the room, the bathroom, the pool, everywhere! The staff was pleasant and sincerely happy to deal with every request. All staff members were personalable, professional, and offered PPE upon check in. They have a basket of free sanitizer, protective gloves, protective masks, and other supplies always available to you. The pool was 100+ degrees and outdoors, the best pool in the area! They also offer complimentary day passes to the nearby spa, free indoor garage parking on site which makes it very easy to come and go at any hour without waiting for valet! They had very affordable resort fees, when most nearby hotels charge $35-$65 in resort fees and still chsrge for parking! Josh, Brian, and the rest of the team were always available to assist with needs, printing emails, or offering advice. I will stay here everytime! You can tell when staff members care and the owners are proud of their eatablishment. This place is a gem! Pool area has heated floors while most neighboring hotels dont spent the money on quality!

Could not be happier. We extended our stay by three days at Galatyn. Josh Tenner is a wonderful host. Been to Vail over twenty times over the years, and never knew about this lodge on the east side of Vail Village. This is the side I've always preferred in the summertime.
