We stayed at the Stanley for one night – June 28th and we had a fabulous time! Our room (224) was clean, spacious enough for 2 people and the bed comfortable. There is no air conditioning but it wasn’t necessary. We opened the windows and turned on the fans – just like we do at home. Yes, the floors do... more

Went for weekend of hiking and relaxing. Hotel loves ghosts and is overkill. We we on the 2nd floor and often many people roaming hallways to see room 217 and wern't hotel guests. Although they hahve a sign they did not monitor on the busiest weekend of the year- not safe! The mattress felt as though it has never been... more

We stayed three nights at the Stanley over 4th of July weekend, and the first thing that you notice is that the hotel is really more of tourist attraction than a place to stay comfortably. Knowing all of the hokey Shining related marketing material, the hotel really takes it beyond necessary. Goods: Great location and views - you walk to... more

We stopped in Estes Park on a road trip across the country. We called around and all of the hotels/ motels in Estes Park are pretty expensive, and more than we were wanting to spend at that time. We called the Stanley just for laughs and they actually offered us a great last minute deal! It was less than it... more

We'd driven more than ten exhausting hours to the Stanley Hotel, and upon our arrival, we were told that our room in the hotel would not be available for us due to a key malfunction issue and that we would be accommodated at another site outside of the hotel. This was perturbing, to say the least. Our reservations had been... more

We only spent one night at the Stanley because it was a historic hotel plus the ghost stories just made it more attractive! The room as clean. It had a huge closet and its own bathroom. We had a ghost tour with Debbie who was excellent! So we heard the about the ghosts on the fourth floor before we stayed... more

We enjoyed the beauty of a very old hotel which is having its 100th anniversary this year. I was enticed that many famous people stayed here such as Stephen King and that it inspired him to write the Shining. The long hallways, the stairways and elevator just puts you in the mood for a ghost story. Would definitely stay again... more

We spent 3 nights at the Stanley. No, this is not a 5 star hotel, but as a 100 yr old hotel, there are pluses. The view, the history, the hotel tour (Patty was excellent), the older rooms were very enjoyable. The weather was cool when we were there the 2nd week of June, so the ceiling fan and open... more

My mom and I just returned from our stay at the Stanley hotel, however I do have to admit it was actually quite mediocre, only because of a few things. The hotel itself was wonderful. I feel fortunate, after reading other reviews, to have had such wonderful service. We prepaid for the ghost tour and upon check-in, inquired about when... more
