The Stanley Hotel

8/10 Good

"I read a lot of reviews prior to booking ! I’ve visited the Stanley 10 years ago and then again this week. So here are my thoughts. We enjoyed it , the staff was excellent.. Stayed at the Lodge , small no frills room. But , so what .. It’s a historic hotel ,.. It’s charming.. Door stays unlocked , no security , people are free to come in and out .. It’s located next to the Main Hotel .. With that being said , Yes.. there’s a lot construction but it didn’t bother us .. The main hotel is different ( to me ) it’s kinda dirty .. stains on carpet etc the front of the hotel used to be all open .. Now , half of it is blocked with tables spilling over from the “ Wine Room “. The other side has futons. Most have stains etc .. The back of the Cascades use to have an open fire pit & a lot of area to walk around , plus a lot more buildings. This area is no longer .. it’s all closed .. There is limited space to sit or walk around There is a maze and a little patio area but no seats If you are going for the Vibe , Spooky Season etc you will enjoy. If your spending more time in your room then this may not be the place for you ."

The Estes Park Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Our favorite place we stayed hotel wise in a two week trip. The staff were all great. The water feature next to the coffee maker was such a handy thing to have. The location was beautiful. Our first morning I was woke from a bull elk right outside our room. The lake sparkled and was a gorgeous thing to listen to the elk as we looked across the water. Location was great. Would definitely stay here again. Coffee pods were even decent and the lotion provided was great."

Nicky's Resort

8/10 Good

"Rustic 2 bedroom cabin. It was clean. The bedrooms were comfortable. Bathroom adequate. Kitchen area was clean but poorly supplied example 1 cereal bowl, eating utensils were old and limited. Kitchen table scratched and had to be from the 1960's. Living area furniture was poor, the futon was so uncomfortable to sit on, can't image what it would be like to sleep on. The recliner chairs were so old the plastic on them crumbled on your clothes and on the floor. Despite this I would return, as the area was convenient and peaceful. Every morning a flock of turkeys would pass by. Also the restaurant is in walking distance from the cabin."

Dao House

8/10 Good

"We stayed for a couple nights while leaf-peeping in Estes Park. First, the good stuff. The lobby was certainly built to impress, with a huge 20 x 40 foot fireplace and big log construction. We stayed in the lodge. The rooms were adequate size, mattress was decent, and all was clean. I definitely recommend getting a room with a Long's Peak view, It was the best view of Long's Peak we've ever had (see photo), and we have stayed in Estes a lot. We had trouble opening the door to the outside deck - called down to the front desk and they were prompt and friendly taking care of it. The morning breakfast was coffee (which was fine) and grocery store muffins cut in half. Hot water was available and spring water for your water bottle. That's it. The property has lots of cabins which are pretty old looking. The dining hall/lounge was closed - it looked like permanently. Now the not so good - they advertise disconnecting to relax, and you must disconnect because the WiFi was so bad you could not even text message with it. Forget about an Internet web page with pictures on it. So if that's what you're expecting that's fine, but just know you won't be online there."
