Unbeatable location in Lionshead

This unit looked to be recently renovated with the back patio leading you right out to the Eagle Bahn lift. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Incredible Location / Unit

From check in to check out, service was incredible. We had a unit right on the lawn overseeing live music, restaurants, and the gondola. Housekeeping was great and worked around our schedule for daily cleanings. Highly recommend the East building. Will be back next summer.

Beautiful condo, exceptional location

What a lovely condo, spacious and well-appointed. We had everything we could want. The deck sits right over the base of the mountain, true ski in ski out, steps from all of Lionshead and great views. We can’t wait to go back.

Great property. Staff service mediocre.

Outstanding room, view, and location. Asking the staff (front desk, concierge, etc) for anything was a less than pleasant experience. This is the 3rd year we’ve stayed at Lionsquare lodge and our 6th year in Vail. By far our favorite room, but will evaluate other more service focused places next year.

Thank you very much for your review. It sounds like you really liked your condo. It’s definitely one of our nicest ones and very well appointed and decorated. I’m sorry our staff didn’t meet your expectations. Typically they receive very high marks and really go out of their way to help our guests in every way possible. We would love to see you back when you return to Vail. I’m sure we could win back your trust. I guarantee it.

LOVE, LOVE, and LOVED!

We had the best time. The location is great and especially when ski season starts- ski in and out! The place is awesome and looks just like it does online! Fully equipped with all you need and super, super clean! The service during the week is so nice; people work hard to make things clean and refreshed each day, which is like a hotel. The staff is very nice and helpful and everyone works hard to make it a nice stay! Would for sure stay here again and looking forward to it. Just a very nice place to stay and appreciate being able to rent this location. Beautiful view of the mountains and the town to the left. Just great spot! Thanks to all!

What a beauty!!!!!

We loved EVERYTHING!!!! This place is so beautifully decorated (especially the kitchen), the living space is gorgeous, the bedroom are prefect, etc., etc. We stayed four nights and both my wife and I agree - this was the best Vail/Lionshead trip ever. There is a restaurant close by called The Vail Chophouse. All four night we were there, a man played music and sang from 4 to 7:00. And this guy is GOOD!!!! We had a small mini concert every night. Back to the kitchen.... it is a DREAM KITCHEN!!! My wife and I marvelled on how beautiful it was. The woodwork is something and they have Thermador appliances. Whoever decorated this place should get a big massive blue ribbon.

Definitely recommend Lionsquare Lodge. This unit was really nice, with updated furniture. Only left 4 stars bc it does get noisy with people walking in the unit above this one. Needs some upgraded soundproofing between floors.

The Good and the Bad

The unit itself was very nice and well kept. However, the afternoon of my arrival the TV remote did not control the TV. I called the front desk and they said maintenance would come. They never showed up even 3 days later. Also there were no instruction on how to use the electric range and of course I didn't call maintenance. Final found instructions on YouTube

Fabulous unit East Lodge 207!

We were privileged to stay in the East Lodge unit 207 which we learned has been in the owners family since 1972! Upgrades over that period have created a truly outstanding unit interior with a location in the heart of Lionshead Village at Vail. Our stay in September was rewarded with beautiful weather, all shops and restaurants of note being open. For a winter time stay, don't look anywhere else. This unit is only steps away from the Eagle Bahn gondola and has an east facing porch to catch the morning sunrise. We'll ask for this unit again and again.

Morning sunshine, Aveda products, Festive gondola base

We go to Vail 3-4 times a year and have always admired Lions Square Lodge. It is just as fabulous as we thought it would be. This condo opens up to the gondola base with views of the ski mountain. Valuable condo amenities: spacious overall, well stocked and lovely kitchen (with super cool microwave drawer), morning sunshine (summer:), deck, Aveda products in the very clean bathrooms, ample closet space, and comfy beds. The property sits in a perfect spot with immediate access to the bike trail, shops, restaurants, (gondola), and hiking trails. The bedrooms are nice but do face the parking lot and don't give a lot of light. This issue, however, is fine with us because we are busy enjoying Vail and the rest of the condo anyway. We definitely hope to stay here in the future. (Just wish we could bring our dog.)

Great location!

The location was spectacular!! Walk right out to Lionshead Village and jump on the gondola! Everything was great except the entire building does not have central air conditioning and our condo was very hot. We had to open all the windows and use box fans and still were hot during the night. Overall we would stay here again in a heart beat! The condo was very clean and stylish! Our family loved it!

Thank you for your nice review and feedback. Managing the heat in the summer can be easy once you know how. It’s all about controlling the direct sunlight into your room. We also have a Refurbishing Coordinator that is working on installing ceiling fans in rooms that can warm up in the summer. Portable fans are always an option as each bedroom has one in the closet. It’s hard to predict the weather, but it’s easy to predict that you’ll have a great time here at Lion Square Lodge. Our dedicated staff is always here to help in any way they can.

If you enjoy the convenience of true ski in/ski out, then this is the place for you. Looking forward to seeing you at Lion Square Lodge for many years to come!! Bob Burgos Assistant General Manager
