Beautiful view of the mountains. Grocery store near by if you want to just chill on your balcony with a bottle of wine or you can enjoy their dining area with a view of mountains. Friendly staff, nice room.

I love this place the location is great to get in Rocky Mountain National Park within 10 minutes. Grand Lake is a nice small town in the Rockies. I go here at least 1 to 2 times a year for over 20 years. This Inn is the best in Grand Lake with great views.

Anytime I am in the area I will always choose Gateway! Love this hotel! Family owned! ❤️
