Austrian Condo in Vail Village with Free Concierge, Breakfast, Parking

The development was conceived by the Austria Haus Development Group in the late 1990’s as a mixed use property consisting of a commercial retail unit, an independently owned boutique hotel and fractional ownership condominiums. Ownership of the eighteen condominiums (7-two bedroom, 5- three bedroom, and 6- three bedroom penthouse) would be divided into one-ninth shares, for a total of 162 owners, to operate as the Austria Haus Condominium Association.

Creating luxury fractional residences in a shared property with an elegant boutique hotel and retail properties was cutting edge at that time and the Austria Haus would become Vail’s original fractional residence club. It took years to identify the right location, assemble the project team, align resources, acquire permits, and over 18 months to complete construction of this luxury multi-use property in Vail Village. By the time the property opened during a December 1998 snowstorm, all 162 owner shares had been sold. Since that time, a number of other properties have tried to emulate the success of the Austria Haus Club and Hotel properties with mixed results.

Club members Marc and Cynthia Thornburgh led the original property development team, are original condo owners and continue as owners of the Austria Haus Hotel. The 25 room hotel is managed and operated by Vail Resorts Hospitality, while the fractional residences of the Austria Haus Condominium Association are privately managed and governed by a member elected Board of Directors. This unique arrangement is virtually invisible to guests and it provides both businesses with the ability to provide a higher level of services and amenities that both club members and hotel guests can enjoy.

If you want a very charming, spacious condo in the heart of the vail village, you will not find a better place! When I return to Vail village, this WILL be the place I stay. It was literally perfect!

This place exceeded our expectations! It’s perfect for families. You have plenty of space to spread out like in a standalone house, plus the convenience of the front desk/concierge/cleaning service and breakfast like you would have in a hotel. You cannot beat the location in the heart of vail village. We look forward to coming back.

What a great place to stay...pictures don't do it justice. We have a family of 5 and there was plenty of space. The living and dining room is very large with access to the balcony. There is a TV in every room (great with teenagers) and both bedrooms have a very nice and spacious bathroom. The kitchen offers modern appliances and everything you need if you decide to cook in the apartment. There is also a grill available that we personally didn't use. We love the view from the two balconies, with view of the mountains, town, pool and creek below. The hotel staff was extremely friendly, from the reception desk to the cleaning staff. The valet service and concierge were outstanding and very helpful with trips and directions. The location of the hotel is PERFECT with quick access to Vail town center and the highway to go visit other places. This is one of the best places we've stayed. I would give it 6-stars if it had the option....excellent!
