Came for a last minute girls trip, and was so pleasantly surprised by both our room (family suite) and the property. We enjoyed the pool and outdoor hot tub in the snow and spent the rest of our time going to some of our favorite spots in Estes. Will most definitely be returning:)

Room wasn’t great, but also wasn’t terrible. Central air didn’t work. So they had installed window units that didn’t fit and almost fell in once the wind picked up. Pieces of boards were stuck in where gaps were but the wind blew them right in. Something about it just wasn’t right. Staff was friendly and it was Christmas so instead of saying anything to create work for someone who was probably just wanting to go home to their family wasn’t on my to-do list. Definitely needs some work but those things could easily be fixed. BUT ALL THAT BEING SAID, I got what I paid for. It was a cheap room for a family vacation.

The inn was clean and located very close to downtown Estes Park and RMNP. But the room we stayed in, Building C, is not ideal to have a quiet time. When we stayed at Appenzell Inn, the third floor was occupied and we could hear all the footsteps, door sliding, and loud conversations. Albeit all of that stopped at 10 PM/quiet time. My advice to future guests, if you decide to stay at this Inn, do not stay on Building C.

Loved staying at the Appenzell Inn. The room was super clean, had a kitchenette that had everything you needed to cook your own meals, the fireplace kept the room warm to where you didn't need the regular heater, and the staff running the check-in office were very friendly, efficient, and set up a great continental breakfast. The inn is just far away enough from Estes Park to have a peaceful stay. I highly recommend using this inn for any visits.
