The location of the inn was great! Staff was awesome. It had its own pool or you could use all the amenities at the sun valley lodge as well. I thought I had booked the lodge. That was a little confusing and I was a little disappointed about that but after staying at the inn it was great. The only thing that wasn’t awesome was the bed. It was a bit firm for us. The parking to our room was close so that was great. I’d stay here again for sure.

Summer at the Sun Valley Resort is almost magical. My daughter and I traveled from the East Coast to see the Sun Valley on Ice show, particularly to see Ilia Malinin who was the featured guest skater that weekend, We both had a wonderful time at the show and also enjoyed the selection of dining experiences, the beautiful ambiance, and simply relaxing by the pool. We stayed at the Inn because there was no availability at the Lodge when I made the reservation almost three months beforehand. The accommodation was comfortable, although the walk to our room from the single elevator was surprisingly long, involving multiple hallways. Other than that, it was a lovely experience. July 2026

The staff was very friendly and helpful when we arrived at the front of the hotel until check-in. The room was very nice with a fireplace in between the den and bedroom. Beautiful view of the skating ring and mountains in the distance. The lobby was beautifully decorated with ample space and a large fireplace. The bar and food service were superb. Excellent gym. Throughout our stay all staff was very helpful and friendly. Great location to walk the Village and shop.

It would be nice for them to specify if these rooms are at the Inn or Lodge. They are close walking distance, but the lodge has better amenities. It is purely out of convenience because you can still use lodge facility if staying at the Inn. Beautiful area, great pool/hot tub, food is average, and excited to go back when kids are a little older for some fun on the beautiful mountains.

Public spaces, bar, restaurant and surroundings are beautiful. The pool and hot tub at the Lodge were highlights. Rooms are absolutely fine but decor is dated. Staff varied from charming and proactive (door man, bar tender and wait staff) to curt and unhelpful (both times the person at the front desk).

The Sun Valley Lodge was beautiful. Our room had a nice deck with view of Mt Baldy and the skating rink. The only thing better would have been to see skaters in action or a show but sadly we came after the ice shows ended. We enjoyed golfing at the Sun Valley Golf Club and loved the Trail Creek course.
