VAIL does not have the charm of Telluride. Nor does it exude the glitz of Aspen. Even Breckenridge, arguably, has better night life. But the one thing that Vail does have is great snow: some 5,300 skiable acres with a seven-mile-long mountain face, 193 trails and not one but seven bowls. That hasn’t stopped Vail, the nation’s largest ski resort by area, from polishing its base village. As part of an upgrade, many of Vail’s boxy, 1970s-style facades and outdated streetscapes have been refreshed with a modern Bavarian look. This winter, skiers are checking into new boutique hotels with ski valets, getting pine-scented massages at Zen-channeling spas and warming themselves by outdoor fire pits.
