The oldest hotel in Vail
completed a renovation of its
rooms, corridors and lobby
in November, about a month
ahead of schedule.
Vail Resorts did not release
the cost of the renovation of the
Lodge at Vail, a RockResort.
The latest renovation, how-
ever, was in addition to almost
$1 million it spent on a massive
pool renovation, which the ski
resort company unveiled in the
summer.
The 52-year-old hotel was
part of the agreement between
Earl Eaton and Peter Siebert
when they first opened Vail
Mountain for skiing.
The agreement called for a
hotel and the Lodge at Vail
opened in 1962, coinciding
with the opening of the ski
mountain.
The latest improvements to
the hotel were in time for the
Thanksgiving break, when Vail
received more than 30 inches
of snow.
“The Lodge at Vail is a favor-
ite spot among Vail visitors
for its location, just steps from
the new Gondola One, as well
as its alpine chalet charm
and impeccable service,” said
James O’Donnell, Vail Resorts
senior vice president of Lodg-
ing and Real Estate.
“This transformation will
bring the iconic boutique hotel
to the forefront of Vail’s evo-
lution, providing guests with
modern comfort and chic
alpine décor,” he added.
The Lodge at Vail’s Inter-
national Wing of hotel rooms
underwent renovations in
2008, and now the renovation
of the hotel’s remaining 56
hotel rooms, corridors, main
stairways and lobby complete
the hotel’s transformation.
NeoStudio, which designed
the Elway’s restaurant and the
pool renovation, were responsi-
ble for the architectural design,
and OZ Architecture handled
the interior design elements.
“Given The Lodge at Vail’s
prominence in the Vail market,
from both a historic and loca-
tion perspective, we needed to
balance the history and quirki-
ness of the iconic building with
the demands of today’s luxury
traveler,” said Michael Noda,
NeoStudio founding partner.
“That meant creating a
design concept that paid hom-
age to the existing historic
structure and integrating soft
alpine tones, natural materi-
als and modern technology,”
Noda said.
The renovation includes inte-
rior finishes, furnishings, soft
goods, lighting and the instal-
lation of air conditioning.
In addition to the guest rooms
The Lodge at Vail is the oldest hotel in the ski resort.
