Several reviews and friends told us this was the best kept secret in Vail-we mostly agree, except about the secret part. Booking wasn't too bad for Jan ski season, but the lodge is often booked solid from September by regulars. Rates were not supercheap, but are still excellent for ski season in Vail village close to lifts. The room was... more

I wrote a review here after my stay in 2006, and I feel like management has read it. My stay then was enjoyable, but I did have some criticism, and it has been addressed. Then, I wrote that the tub was dirty and the water pressure lacking. This season, I found the bathroom totally redone, with a clean tub, excellent... more

You can't beat the Sitzmark location and value for your money in Vail Village. This was our fifth stay. Rooms are very clean, have coffee, tea, wine glasses, microwaves, ironing board and irons. Extra space for luggage storage out of your way as well as a safe for valuables. Laundry facilities are available in the basement. Pool area overlooks the... more

This is one of the best values for the dollar in the Vail Village. Clean, close to the lifts, in the center of the action, breakfast included, free parking, helpful front desk. We stayed Christmas week, I could not believe the number of people who come back to this same hotel every year. On second thought, yes, I can understand... more

We visited the Sitzmark right after Thanksgiving for a long weekend. For the low price we received from the Vail visitors website, we did not expect much, considering most vail lodges were hundreds of dollars more per night. We were pleasantly surprised ! we had door parking (there's a short garage underneath as well) and a wonderful clerk named Jake... more

We expected the Sitzmark to be similar to the Sherpa in Val Thorens where we stay for our winter ski-ing, and we were right with one major difference - the rooms a three times as big! Having never been to a US ski resort Vail was an interesting experience - especially the highly entertaining and confusing road system! It took... more

The Sitzmark Lodge is a small hotel on the south end of Vail Village, a mere block from the ski lift. I stayed in a non-smoking king-bed room and loved it. The entire hotel was impeccably clean. The bed was comfortable, and the room had an armchair, a small table with two chairs, a balcony, and an armoiur. In addition,... more

I've stayed at the Sitzmark every winter for eons, and it remains the same reliably friendly place that has always welcomed guests back year after year. In fact, it can be difficult to book a room unless you've stayed there before. The people are warm and courteous, the rooms are very comfortable, and it is unquestionably the best value in... more

Didn't actually stay there, but did talk to them on the phone. They were not helpful at all just wanted to stay they were full and tried to get me off of the phone. I asked 2 questions and was told I needed to make individual calls. If they don't have time to even talk to me on the phone... more
