The Hythe, a Luxury Collection Resort, Vail

Family Friendly Atmosphere.

We loved our stay here. There is a free shuttle that will take you back and forth into vail village and surrounding stops as well. If you don’t want to wait for the shuttle (normally not longer than a 10 minute wait) there is a courtesy car that the hotel has that can take you where you want to go. Also free of charge. The staff was so amazing always asking if we wanted water bottles or little snacks. We had a rental car and because we came during off season we were able to leave our car in the Lionshead parking lot for free for the entire week. Or you can choose to pay for the valet at the hotel for $60 a day/night. We stayed in a deluxe king room where we had a balcony with a Mountain View and a fireplace. It was so perfect for the two of us. The room came with robes and slippers for us as well. Daily room service. The hotel is beautiful, our spa day was fantastic. If you schedule a service with the spa you have access to all of the amenities the spa offers for the entire day. I highly recommend staying here! 10/10 experience and we hope to be back!

Transportation

First time visiting Vail. This hotel is beautiful. Room was a a little small but manageable. Staff was very nice and interactive. Great breakfast and the bar on the second floor was also very nice. We will definitely make plans to return in the spring

Lovely and so convenient. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.

Loved this place. I know we where there between seasons, but the stains on the furniture and food left around trash can and then the yuck(clump of hair and bathroom garbage) we had to see every time we left and came back from our room was a let down.

I typically only use TripAdvisor to leave positive reviews because I find many travelers are quick to come to review sites to complain about small things. But unfortunately, our experience was such at this hotel that I feel compelled to share about it for those considering this property. While I want to note that the staff at this hotel were friendly and kind, I was incredibly disappointed in our stay, and it really didn't compare to other "Luxury Collection" hotel experiences. Given our Marriott status, we were "upgraded," but upon entering the room, it didn't look like the style/quality of the (smaller) suite we had originally booked, nor to the online images of the room to which we were supposedly "upgraded." I'm including both the actual picture of our room with screenshots from The Hythe's website. Also notable is how terribly designed the furniture in our bedroom was for the space. If you love absolutely destroying your shins every time you want to get in bed, then I suppose this must be the hotel for you. What's worse, our room had the most uncomfortable hotel bed I've probably slept in in a decade. Lumpy and sagging, and certainly nowhere near my expectations of a Luxury Collection property. We typically stay in other hotels in Vail, but I wanted to give a Marriott hotel a try over our go-tos, and candidly, I'm disappointed with myself that I did. My husband and I both couldn't wait to get home so we could actually get a good night's sleep. Lastly, and perhaps most alarmingly, many aspects of our room were unclean: Dirty spoons in the silverware drawer, hair all over the bathroom drawers, a stained shower. I used up a container of Clorox wipes as we tried to settle into our room. While I completely recognize that hotel rooms are upgraded and changed over time within a building, it was clear we were put in an outdated room, and our stay was disappointing as a result. Sadly, we'll be staying elsewhere next time we're in Vail.

Nice room at a fair price.

Upon check-in. We realize that the room we reserved was not the room we got when I went back down to the front desk they made all kinds of excuses, and tried to convince me that that was the room that I had booked, worst bait and switch of all time, the room was dirty, smelly, and extremely crusty. There was no way I was going to stay in that room for the price that I was paying. Management and the front desk were not helpful at all. The lobby and all of the amenities seemed very nice however somehow the “penthouse” that I booked was on the third floor. There is no way that I would ever stay there. I’m shocked that it is considered a luxury collection property do better Marriott
