Stayed at El Palomino for two days in June 2013. This is an older, 1950s motel which has clearly been refurbished. Room was large with king size bed, large flat screen tv mounted on wall, all furniture was in good shape. Room was cooled by room size AC, which was sorely needed in 100 degree heat. Room and bathroom were... More

I stayed here in August 2012 and I should have done this review a long time ago. I apologize for that. This is an older hotel that is managed by a couple. It has great curb appeal. It's clean on the outside, the pool is well maintained, it's nicely painted. It all looks great until you start breaking things down... More

The rooms were clean, it's family owned and they were super friendly and helped us find excellent food in the area and even had a wine bottle opener and opened our wine from Colorado wine country so we could enjoy it!! Quiet area. Awesome water pressure. I would definitely stay here every time I'm in Grand Junction!!!!

We stayed one night here and it was a very pleasant experience in June. It is older, but very clean and well maintained. We did use the pool and it was immaculate. The pool had not warmed up quite yet, but it still was nice to cool off in. We met some nice people, just hanging out. The bed (king... More

Went with TA reviews and chose to stay here on our trip to Grand Junction. There are so many options in this town! The couple that owns El Palomino have given their heart and souls to run this business and it shows. Everything is very clean and tidy and the rooms are a fine size. Yes, there is a bot... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in May 2013. It's definitely an older motel, but very clean and well maintained. The pool looked immaculate, although we didn't use it because of the weather. Owner was very friendly and more than accommodating with requests for information. Lots of options for breakfast. With a pedestal sink there's no spreading out in the... More

My family stayed here overnight on our way to Utah. The room was dated but it was very clean. The staff was friendly even when we pulled up to the hotel at midnight. The breakfast was the usual continental breakfast you get most anywhere. The value for your dollar is great. We will stay here again when we are looking... More

We took the advice of other TripAdvisor reviewers and stayed here for one night for $60 with a AAA discount. If I were in Grand Junction again I'd spend a little more and try somewhere else. Our room was clean but too small for the furniture crammed into it. It would have worked OK for one person but was difficult... More

Great value. Immaculate rooms in quiet hotel. This Mom and Pop does a great job. The location is a bit hard to get to in an older part of town, but it is well worth going to. My room had been completely renovated and was quite comfortable.

The good reviews were true! We love to find a bargain, especially when we just need a room for a night when passing through. The El Palomino was great. Nice clean remodeled room. Good breakfast. Close to lots of eateries. The pool was still closed but was large for the type of motel this was. It was a classic oldie... More
