The Viking Lodge - Downtown Winter Park Colorado

Centrally located with easy access to amenities and activities. Clean, cozy rooms with great staff providing exceptional service. Ideal for travelers seeking convenience and comfort.

Viking Lodge is a perfect name for this property, as it oozes "hygge": Super friendly, cozy and fun. It is the Winter Park equivalent of a small European family lodge. We had a party of 4 in one of their loft rooms. It is small and vertical--with a new staircase for son/nephew to get to their bed upstairs. Everything works and is functional--nothing more or less than what you need. Sink is outside the bathroom (toilet/shower), so a bit dorm-room'ish. Owners (appears to be a couple and grown daughter) are around, but try to be as efficient as possible (cleaning, office work, etc.), so check-in/check-out can be fairly self-service (which I like). Common area feels like a living room--fireplace, turntable w/ records, sometimes a wonderful 3-legged German Shepherd--and is a great place to relax, with Celestial Seasonings tea, coffee, and some occasional snacks available all the time--with local baked goods put out (first come, first serve) in the morning. Parking is included and just out back. Location couldn't be better--many restaurants, bars, and shops nearby--and you're on the main bus line--and first/last stop before Winter Park resort. If you're looking for luxury, this ain't it--but if that's what you want, you're probably not going to Winter Park anyway. Instead, if you want cozy, great location, and affordable...Viking Lodge is for you!

Horrible customer service! I have been trying to cancel an upcoming reservation for days, through email and by calling, and it still hasn’t happened! I have received zero responses to my emails and the charge on my card has not been reversed! Beware if you decide to make a reservation here!
