YMCA of The Rockies Estes Park

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice property. Great value. I would go back if in the area."

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Fort Collins

8/10 Good

"Overall, the hotel stay was good; although it was a little dated, the bed was comfortable and the sheets were nice. 🏨🛏️✨"

Blue Door Inn

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and comfortable. Sink had a slow drain and the handle fell off. Breakfast was good- had some variety."

Dao House

8/10 Good

"Parking was inconvenient if you get a room numbered in the 200s. Access to these rooms require entry through a door from outside. The general door is locked in the evening preventing you coming in from the outdoors and yr room key will not work for this door. It is pitch black with no lights when you try to find yr way to yr room from outside-creepy. No elevator, 2 steep flight of stairs-not good for seniors/disabled to lug yr luggage."

Coyote Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Our time in Estes was not long enough but our stay at Coyote Mountain lodge was great! The staff was very friendly and their breakfast was more than we expected during our stay. The views are beautiful and we had some Elk visitors to greet us upon arrival! Definitely recommend this lodge!"

Expedition Lodge Estes Park

8/10 Good

"I wasnt too keen with the choice of colors in the room, the paint was a bright chartruesse which didnt really compliment the enviroment nor matched the room furniture. Other than that everything was great, I would recommend and would stay again."

The Stanley Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was nice. Had the top one of the corner rooms. There was no air conditioning so one had too be brought up."

Holiday Inn Estes Park by IHG

8/10 Good

"The only drawbacks to the property during our stay were that one of the elevator banks wasn’t working and the air conditioner vent in the bathroom had so much dust and lint on it that it appeared it had not been cleaned in a long time. Looked unhealthy and just nasty to look at. Otherwise, the staff was helpful and our room was clean."

Riverside Colorado

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely time at the Riverside Cabins. The tiny home we stayed in was plenty spacious for 4 adults, the property itself was gorgeous, and all the staff we encountered were lovely. We’d most definitely stay here again!"
