VAYA Sölden

Location: Great location, close to a bus station, so it is easy to get around, the only downside is church not far away from the hotel, so sleeping with an open window might be challenging, unless you are an early bird and like waking up at 6 am. Room: Room was spacious and windows have good noise protection, morning 6 am bells are hard to hear. Activities: Hotel is not large, but offers nice little spa zone and in the evening the are different activities, like solving puzzles, playing board games. Food: Really enjoyed main courses for dinner - meat, fish and vegetarian options were tasty and interesting in flavor combinations. Service: Service team, especially Mathe, Ella and Adam, were super!

After spending a week at Vaya Sölden, we can look back on our stay with great satisfaction. The hotel is not too large, has rooms with varying views, and a restaurant on the ground floor used for both breakfast and dinner. It is furnished with care and equipped with every convenience. There is an underground parking garage with sufficiently spacious spots under the building, though with a limited number of spaces; other spaces are located around the building. Please note that Sölden is a busy place, so the noise from the main road is quite noticeable if the window or balcony door is slightly ajar, especially during rush hour. If you want absolute peace and quiet, another, somewhat more secluded location within the Vaya group might be a better choice. The friendly receptionist did her best to move us to a quieter side of the building, but given the high season, this was only possible for a couple of days. We left it at that, and ultimately, the view of the hustle and bustle was quite nice. Incidentally, the (contact) noise between the rooms is virtually absent, which was very pleasant. As in many places in Austria, the church bell rings from 6:00 AM; it takes some getting used to at first, but to be honest, it is part of the charm. The room was fine, as we have come to expect from Vaya: clean, a lovely bed, a Nespresso machine, a safe in the closet, everything working, nothing damaged, a lovely bathroom, and everything kept spotlessly clean by the friendly housekeeping lady. The staff were very friendly and helpful in general; Ella, Martin, and their colleagues made our stay very enjoyable. Thanks! In terms of food, you won't want for anything; an extensive breakfast buffet with something for everyone, actively replenished when necessary. The dinners included in our half-board booking were delicious. In the morning, you indicate your choice from three dishes, roughly divided into meat, fish, or vegetarian options. Anything else to mention? Yes, air conditioning would have been nice given the 30°+ we had that week. We were aware of its absence. A minor detail was the chain for the garage door, which hung too high for the average sports car driver.

Not a 4-star hotel. The staff were smoking in the room below our "deluxe" room and were constantly going in and out, without using the door handle, even late at night. Breakfast was completely uninspired and offered too little variety; everything tasted like it had been refrigerated, the sliced ​​vegetables were dried out, and there was only one fruit salad; otherwise, it was just a fruit basket and sliced ​​pineapple that was already brown. There was a decent selection of cereals, I must say, but otherwise, it felt like everything was lacking. The staff were friendly, but that didn't really improve things. They need to improve.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at VAYA. Very friendly and helpful staff. The reception, restaurant, and bar staff deserve high praise. The room and balcony are spacious, tastefully decorated, and clean. Excellent! Highly recommended 🤩

Simply the perfect hotel in Sölden – the location, the service, the friendliness – we had a wonderful time that will be remembered for a long time. The highlight is, of course, the spa area with its panoramic mountain views.

Beautiful hotel, lovely rooms. Service depends on the staff; I expected more courtesy, communication, and overall service. We constantly had to point things out and didn't get the feeling that they were hoping for repeat business. Specifically, we were sitting at the bar in the evening, and the staff's demeanor clearly signaled that they were ready to call it a day. There were few, if any, smiles. The spa area was nice, but we had to point out that there were no more glasses for water, which, of course, was also empty. Attention for electric car owners: the charging station provider charges an exorbitant price per kWh. This isn't mentioned at check-in and isn't displayed at the charging station itself.

The highlights: Hotel location is central. Rooms are okay, clean, and in good condition. Spa facilities are limited; the spa bar was only refilled after we asked. Staff – neither reception nor restaurant staff speak or understand German. Restaurant only opens for breakfast at 8:00 AM. Breakfast quality is average to poor. Electric vehicle: Beware of hidden costs! 1 kWh = €1.45 Would we stay there again: absolutely not; there are better accommodations in Sölden.

This was our first time at Hotel VAYA Sölden. The staff were incredibly friendly, polite, helpful, and professional! The waiters and kitchen staff were fantastic! The food was delicious, gourmet, and beautifully presented!

The Hungarian servers are very nice!

Overall, it's okay. The rooms are nice and spacious and clean. The service is good. The location is also okay, however, parking is extremely limited. Underground parking costs €16 per day. Parking spaces are assigned (with a sign that must be placed behind the windshield). Unfortunately, no one adheres to the assigned spaces. Even informing reception didn't improve the situation. The spa area is okay. Unfortunately, there's no pool. Therefore, I'm only giving this hotel 3 stars overall.

Great location between the two gondolas. The food is excellent (absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and the portion size is just right). The service is very friendly and attentive. I'd gladly come again.
