Last fall we stayed at the Dillon for two nights while we toured the area. This fall we were just driving through Colorado Springs and we preferred to stay at the Dillon in Manitou Springs again just because it was good and fun. It is an older but nicely kept up motel but they have a few newer rooms and... More

Thank you so much for your stay. We try very hard to please our guests and make them welcome. My grandparents built our cabin units in 1947 and we keep them very clean and try to preserve a little history. We also have new very large luxury rooms. We are centrally located to most attractions, shops and restaurants. Glad you... More

Loved staying at this motel. The owners are friendly and helpful about finding places to eat and how to get to various attractions. The gentleman who owns the motel told us that his grandfather built this hotel in 1947! Deer visit almost daily, very early in the morning and sometimes in the evening. The rooms are in a "U" shaped... More

Clean! Clean! Did I mention it's clean? Don't expect anything fancy. It's plain, old, and clean. I actually saw the owner washing the bedspreads! You know, the nastiest thing in most hotels? I saw him washing em in the washing machine! This place is clean... Not real nice. The location is lame, busy road, kinda loud. It's clean! The deer... More

Micro and small fridgeAlthough pool is heated it was a bit cold for my liking...might be because it rained some nights. Owners are GREAT people, very friendly and helpful.

Classic, old school motel, rooms are almost cabin-like with a front and back "room" (there was a wall with an open doorway between the bedrooms), clean and comfortable with a small kitchenette area with a fridge and microwave--always appreciated. The owners are very nice and live onsite, Joann is from Pittsburgh which is a plus! And all at a very... More

The Dillon is one of many motels at the eastern end of Manitou Springs and a mile or more away from the downtown of Manitou Springs where you find the shops and restaurants. I am sure there were many more than a dozen such motels. Most were older with a few newer ones interspersed among the older ones. The Dillon... More

My husband and I booked online because the price was good and the hotel had some favorable reviews and nice photos on the web site. When we entered the room we were met with a strange strong smell, we think cheap deoderizer. The room wasn't terrible but was quite run down. The bathroom, however, was terrible with stained toilet sitting... More

Great place to stay, rooms are clean and comfortable. George and Joann are great hosts, friendly and very helpful. Sitting on the porch is so relaxing. Great fun watching the deer come for the treats. Centrally located to all attractions. We will stay here again.
