The Vintage Hotel

This review is relatively objective - stayed for one night solo in July during a 47 night/25 property USA road trip. Easily found alongside the highway with plenty of parking. Friendly staff. It’s a large modernish hotel (as per the photographs) somewhat lacking in any atmosphere during the summer. Guess in the winter it would be better. As to be expected, a large, clean, comfortable and well equipped room. No functioning restaurant/breakfast. Convenient for the eateries/activities in the nearby ‘entertainment’ area. Did the job of providing a clean bed for the night as nearby Grand Lake was ‘full’ with a festival/concert. Average value for this type of property.

My husband found a great deal to stay in this hotel or we may have missed it. We had 3 adults and 3 dogs in one room, and we sometimes have trouble finding hotels that allow dogs, so allowing 3 in the room was a must and they didn't even pause before saying yes. This is a very nice hotel, comfortable, great location, friendly staff, clean, well kept property. AND, I would say they are not only dog FRIENDLY but they are dog LOVING! The staff were all friendly with our dogs, there's a treat jar on the front desk, lots of grass close to the building for pottying, poop bags and trash cans at every entrance and a roll of paper towels in the room! When we checked in, each dog received a bag with 2 tennis balls, a large, locally made dog treat, a sign for the outside of the door that a fur family was staying there (great in case rescuers were needed, like in a fire) and a sheet to throw over the bed (to help cut down on housekeeping). The only sort of down side we could see is they don't have housekeeping during the stay, but they were great about changing out towels and emptying trash on request. We will def be back!

I liked this place a lot but I'm going to start with a negative. It has a poor appearance as you approach. A sign says it was established in 1986 but the façade looks like 1960s or 70s. Brown and orange. The rooms are excellent with added amenities like a fireplace (not working off season), a full kitchen, a real coffee maker with real coffee and real mugs. Not the paper cups and fake coffee like most hotels. There are extra pillows, bedding and towels in the closet along with a humidifier, a fan (no AC) and ironing board. The swimming pool and hot tub are both nice. I recommend this pet friendly hotel that is close to the ski village. It even has a gondola from the parking area to the ski lift gondola.

We loved the slow pace of the vintage hotel and the kitchenette was super convenient. The cabriolet was fun to take to the village every day and especially with fresh snowfall. Some reviews stated that the hotel was outdated but it’s perfect for a ski resort, it isn’t like you spend a lot of time in your room here anyway. The staff was extremely helpful and nice.

We had a great stay at the Vintage Hotel, loved the pool and hot tub, the cabriolet into the village was fun to take. Our room was large and well equiped with a little kitchen and fireplace, very spacious, yet with a cozy vibe. The housekeeping staff was always prompt with our requests and everything was perfect. We will definitely stay here again when we are in Winter Park.

If I could give this hotel a zero, I would. It was est. in 1986 and it hasn’t been updated since 1986. No room service of any kind during the stay. The place smelled like old and air freshener. Very disappointing for close to $300/night. Would definitely not recommend. Pictures speak for themselves. Winter park resort was great though.

Check In - average. Staff not really customer service oriented so much as completing their "chores" in a moderately efficient manner. They certainly don't go out of their way to make you feel at home or valued. Parking - Excellent Room - Extremely disappointing. Very very very dated, worn out, dirty - not from neglect but from time between updates, smells like an overdose of Fabreze and odors from 50 years of close quarters cooking. If you get one with a loft don't forget the only bathroom is downstairs. Common areas - worn out and in tremendous need of a complete update and makeover. This hotel is NOT in the village. It's only a few minute, mini-gondola ride away but you still won't get that "vibe" and the conveniences won't be that convenient. Overall, I guess the "value" isn't all that bad, but in the same way that a Motel 6's value isn't bad. Think about it...

Planned just have a day trip to Winter Park Resort but rental car had a flat tire and needed a place to stay overnight. I arrived at night and the front desk staff were very understanding and were able to save the day. The room was very clean and had a nice view of the pool and mountains. Thank you!

I’m only knocking off a point because the place could use some updating but otherwise, we were really happy with our one night stay here. Location can’t be beat and the fact that it includes parking is HUGE. We drove up from Denver early in the morning and were able to stop in and get a free parking pass, stay one night and ski the following day all for $263. If you are a season pass holder make sure to ask for the season pass discount. It knocked off about $50 off our bill. All of that aside, the room was spacious and had ample room for ski gear for our family of four (two college age kids). Beds were surprisingly comfortable and so was the bedding and pillows. I think we slept a solid 10 hours! Room also had a microwave and mini fridge. Shower had plenty of hot water and good pressure. Hubby went to the hot tub after skiing and said it was great. We didn’t bring our pet but apparently you can do so for just $35/night. Will def stay here again if only coming up for a night or two. Any longer stay might require a condo and more space. 5 stars for value.
