Top Estes Park Hotel Reviews

Expedition Lodge Estes Park

8/10 Good

"Convenient to Rocky Mountain National Park."

Hotel Estes

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time at Hotel Estes. The room was clean, the view was great, and my kids loved the pool and hot tub! Breakfast included is not something you see in this area very often, and we were grateful for it. Selections are limited, but the hot oatmeal and hard boiled eggs gave us the protein and energy we needed for the Rockies! The kids loved the all day popcorn and the evening smores too. All staff we interacted with were so nice and helpful- they all really went above and beyond. Would definitely stay here again! Don’t skip out on eating at Antonio’s pizza around the corner- delicious!"

Discovery Lodge

8/10 Good

"Room was described as a standard queen balcony, but there was no balcony - only a walkway with chairs in front of each door and a 3 1/2 foot drop-off to the parking lot, with no railing. Room was ok for a one-night stay - no place at all to hang up clothes - and there was plenty of room along the back wall to add a clothes shelf/rack. Bathroom had a pedestal sink and very limited surface for toiletries. "Continental breakfast" at 7 am was inedible and could hardly be called breakfast - we ate at the Estes Egg."

Blue Door Inn

8/10 Good

"The facility could use a remodel. We encountered some issues with the drain, but it was quickly managed. The manager on site was very helpful and proactive in other aspects. The pool needs more frequent maintenance as it was dirty, and we couldn't use it. The breakfast was very good, but another meat protein option would help to respect dietary preferences."

Coyote Mountain Lodge

8/10 Good

"Coyote Mountain Lodge was a great place to stay. Don't let it's appearance fool you. It's a nice and comfortable place to stay. They have a decent breakfast and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed my stay there. The only complaint I have is the showerhead had weak water pressure, but really not a big deal. Our room had a great view and the property was peaceful and quiet. I would stay there again."

The Estes Park Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A true 4+ star hotel, and while pricey, I think the best place in Estes Park. I spent a week here in their best rooms and every aspect of the stay was so very well done. Rooms are definitely modern and well-maintained, beds are super comfortable, good amenities including a larger mini-fridge and microwave, good bathroom facilities and supplies. Views are incredible if you get a balcony on the lake side, there is nothing in Estes Park that even comes close. The front desk staff are incredible - during my stay, they repeatedly moved mountains to accommodate the numerous extensions to my stay, they were always a pleasure to deal with. I gotta say, I really appreciate the HDMI port on the wall with a nearby power outlet, first hotel I've ever come across where you can just easily plug in a Roku or any other streaming device and use it without having to get around to the back of the TV. Wifi is solid as well, and I was able to get work done on my laptop while sitting on the balcony with an unbelievable view of the Rocky mountains in the background. Seriously an all-time favorite place to stay and I will definitely return."
