Everything was so easy from check in to arrival and check out in the morning. The property is gorgeous and they thought of everything you could possibly need - from glasses of water to a sound machine and top notch bedding and toiletries! Location is also wonderful and it's easy to walk to so many restaurants and shops! This will be our go-to stop anytime we are in Durango!

This hotel was one of the best historic hotels I’ve stayed in. The bartender was the BEST! Great cocktails and conversation. The rooms have been modernized, so they are very comfortable and don’t have that old, musty smell you find in other older hotels. I will definitely stay there again next time I head to Durango!!
