The Stanley is one of my favorite hotels: I've stayed there before, and before I would have given it 5 stars for sure. However, my visit last week was a little lacking. While the hotel has all kinds of historic charm and creaks in the floor boards that remind you pleasantly of its age, there are also items that remind... More

Brought an out of state friend to Estes and stayed at the Stanley. We had a lovely time. All the staff we dealt with were professional and friendly. We went on the Stanley tour and it made the stay that much more enjoyable. I knew going that the Hotel did not have a/c and did not seem concerned because it... More

Stayed at the Stanley for the Beyond Reality Event. The staff was great even though they were swamped for the weekend with people attending the convention. Our room was clean and comfortable. We even won a silent auction to stay in Room 1402 and thta was beautiful. It was big and comfortable. For a historical hotel it is well maintained.... More

Always enjoyable get-a-way hotel. As an historic hotel, everything seems to stay the same with an excellent staff. Our stay corresponded with Mother's Day, so the Cascade restaurant was very busy all day long. No problem. Our room was at the back of the hotel, so we had extra windows and a little view. We had to wait a long... More

Just stayed here one night because of a tight schedule but it was worth the drive from Denver. One of a kind, they don't make these big old hotels like this any more so it is a treat to spend a night in one. The history, the elegance and the wonderful staff make it easy to enjoy.

This past weekend May 2-5 was my third visit to The Stanley Hotel. The occasion was the first ever Stanley Film Festival. The hotel was just as wonderful as my previous visits (the first being in Sept '09 for my brother's wedding on the premises). Even without the terrific film festival, the atmosphere is electric. Nestled in the valley the... More

We hope to see you next for our bigger and better event! Thank you... More

I have lived in Colorado for over 15 years & never been to The Stanley. It is definitely a must see & stay! We chose to stay in "The Lodge", because it is more newly remodeled. We had a room on the 1st floor(very important, since there in no air conditioning & it was a very warm weekend for May).... More

The Lodge is definitely a gem, and my favorite place to stay! Midge does an amazing job entertaining our guests during the morning breakfast hours. It is definitely much more quiet (and intended) staying in the Lodge. I am happy you finally made the visit, and we look forward to your return! More

Stayed one night over the beautiful Easter weekend and had a lovely experience.
