Meals are expensive.

The ac was noisy and the bed was sagging. Both pools are enclosed, I felt like being in an aquarium. I expected better, I didn’t realize there was a difference between the lodge and the inn.

We liked everything about this resort. Staff were great, rooms were clean, and comfortable. Loved the restaurants in the lodge and villiage. Being able to use the free bus to get around was nice also. We'd definitely return and stay here in the future.

With sprawling green pastures, the drive is spectacular in late April. With snow melting off the majestic Bald Mountains, our stay at the Sun Valley Lodge was delightful and relaxing. Family-owned, the Sun Valley Lodge is the gold standard for warm hospitality, timeless elegance, and service excellence. Upscale modern pairs with traditional cowboy in every impeccable detail of architecture. The spacious living room, comfortable king bed, and well-designed bathroom made our stay in a king suite special. The piano player at the wood-paneled Duchin Lounge made our celebration dinner fun by playing tunes on request. Amos at the front desk and restaurant staff where we dined (intimate Gretchen’s and Austrian-inspired Konditore) went the extra mile to make our stay unforgettable. We were thrilled to discover Burns Cowboy Shop in the Village, a two-minute walk from the Lodge. Burns is a family-owned boutique specializing in made in America, custom hand-crafted western boots & hats for women and men. Jake, the store manager, patiently answered our many questions as he thoughtfully designed his and her boots that we would enjoy for many years. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our Sun Valley stay and can’t wait to return.

What a perfect place to spend some time!!

Food and drinks at lodge was 3 out of 5. We had a mouse in our room and staff frequently forgot orders. This was my third time staying and found this to be off base for how they typically operate. Hopefully in future it’s better.

Loved our stay at The Sun Valley Lodge. Only downside I would say is they do not extend or offer late checkout for even 30 minutes. I would think at a place this nice where people are expecting at least that for what they’re paying for, they would be able to do it. That is the only bad thing I would say.

Such a beautiful property in a beautiful setting. It's fun to stay in the village

Staff was stiff, no friendliness or feeling welcomed. Exception is the team at the Duchin lounge. They were amazing
-
Excellent as always!
