We made a quick Stop in Ft. Collin’s on a long car trip. We chose the Armstrong and I’m so glad we did. It was unique, clean, and perfect location. Staff (Kenzie) was very helpful.

Great place to stay for any occasion!

We were met by friendly and accommodating Front desk staff, Ed & Ransom on arrival. They were able to honor our room request and that always makes us happy. Both Gentlemen helped us with a couple of things. Our bed was comfortable, the hotel is quiet at night. We slept well and had a great shower. The amenities are nice. We’ll definitely stay at The Armstrong Hotel again. P.S. there may be a ghost, though. The elevator stopped on a floor and no one was there to enter. :) We love historical hotels.

This property is very historical and a pretty place. Down side is it is super loud and the walls are paper thin. It’s not somewhere you want to stay if you want to get a good nights sleep. You can hear everyone around you talking in normal voices in their rooms. When using the blow dryer the breaker went out. Had to call for maintenance to turn my lights back on in my room. I left a day early due to not being able to relax. Very noisy I can’t express that enough. Parking is extremely limited. I did not like that. They only have maybe 10 parking spots available for their guests. Staff was very friendly. Room was very clean. Bed was super soft and the bedding was soft. I won’t stay there again.

Very esthetically pleasing hotel. Staff was very nice, located in a great location and rooms are clean. But the room has a weird smell to it because of the bathroom. And since this hotel is right on a major road, the noise at night was so loud, mostly front the motorcycles.
