“Bummer of a hotel”

I read lots of negative reviews of this hotel and I was intending not to book here. However, when I scheduled our rafting tour the woman on the phone promised me that she had stayed here with her mother who is picky and they thought it was fine. I tend to be pretty picky, but to keep the expenses of our 2 week trip under control we've stayed in lots of inexpensive but clean and nice hotels over the past week (thanks to tripavisor!) and this is the worst and most expensive hotel we have stayed in so far. I could do this all over again, I would plan on spending a little more for a better hotel.

“Pricey, but pleasant”

Room was pricey, but overlooked the Animas River. Room was tiny, but beds were comfortable. Staff was very nice.

I had expected the indifferent treatment we usually get in Breckenridge, but was pleasantly surprised that not everyone in Colorado dislikes Texans.

We rode the train and I highly recommend it! Ride up and take the bus back.

The hotel is okay….the sheets are clean but feel like sand paper and the rooms smelled old. The hotel is TOALLY over priced for what it is…is should be like $49.99 a night. There are much better options in Durango. Two great places to eat are: Ken & Sue’s for dinner and for breakfast Jean Pierre Bakery.

i stayed 7/8/07. the wireless internet didn't work. rooms looked like a ramada or days inn. rates for this hotel were to high. for what you got. i decided to stay over in durango an extra day after i checked out of the hampton, which was the same price. decor was several years old and no breakfast was served.

i'm going to write a letter to holiday inn and let them know i wasn't satisfied.

“Quiet, comfortable & Great Location”

Holiday Inn Durango

Save Review
3 of 5 stars
Nebraska

3/3 found this review helpful

Durango is not the small-town old-west place it once was - it is a fair-sized city now - not as charming as I had hoped - we stayed at the Holiday Inn for 2 nites and for the most part it was very quiet & comfortable-we got a room on the back-side facing the roaring river - very pretty. The Doubletree just down the road looked better, but it was full. We had read bad reviews on-line of the attached Applebee's - but we had helpful quick service & decent food for our take-out supper the first nite - it was pouring rain & we were tired & did not want to go back out into the storm. Odd set-up for the pool & hot-tub - it is in a separate building, so you have to go outside to enter or leave - on a cold & rainy evening that was not too inviting.

No sign of hobos or young men casing cars, as mentioned in previous reviews! The first nite it was pouring rain & nobody in their right mind was out. The second nite was nice - still the parking lot was fine. It does back up to a public-walkway along the river, so it has no way to be secured - but we found it to be safe & perfectly acceptable the nites we were there. If concerned for safety, I would park along the front facing the street .
