Fodor's Expert Review Four Seasons Resort Vail

Rooms at the Four Seasons are large and attractive, in a contemporary alpine style (with warm hickory-wood and limestone accents); every room has at least one gas-burning fireplace and a balcony. Guests appreciate the 14,000-square-foot spa and a dedicated ski concierge located right at the Gondola One chairlift (they've got rental gear and maps, and can even hook you up with ski lessons). The refined restaurant, Flame, is noted for superb service and deftly prepared regional American cuisine.
