Really beautiful hotel with quaint rooms. Room was clean and had charm. It was wonderful to be able to book the hot tub in advance so you could enjoy that time with just the person you are traveling with. The location is fantastic. Walking distance to everything in the downtown. You could hear the train that passes by during the day but it was a positive for us. We would definitely stay again. Price was reasonable and on par with other hotels in the area.

The stay was relaxing after a long distance of traveling. Room was beautiful but cramped. i loved the decor and furnishing of the room/. Grandchildren loved and laugh at the book. Disappointed not to finding portal or candy in hidden drawer. Bathroom was very clean and room was cozy.

The rooms are a little out dated. No refrigerator in the room. Very small. The bathroom was nice and big. Very clean! Beds arent the most comfortable, but ive been in worse staying a various hotels. The staff is excellent. The mahogny restaurant is awesome. Our server was the best. I cant remember his name but he was very professional but still fun and had us laughing. Thank you

A must stay in Durango

The hotel was amazing with much history. The furniture matched the era of the hotel. I loved that each room had a journal you filled out & left. Only had the opportunity to eat in the Saloon while we were there & food & service were excellent. Hotel staff also very knowledgeable, courteous & kind.
