Cliff House at Pikes Peak

Interesting building history.

It was under construction so we heard lots of construction noise all day long. The front drive was being repaved which made sitting outside on the front porch very noisy with concrete dust flying in the air.

The staff was a particularly positive element of our stay. Very responsive, very easy to speak with. Especial note to Phil, the Operations lead, with whom I had particilarly pleasant converdations and banter.

The charm and the location

Would’ve loved to Of stayed longer

Gorgeous views

We arrived for 3 nights for a family special occasion. This is a historic property in a great location with a lot of charm. The staff was very friendly. Our suite room was large with a very large well lit bathroom. The bed and pillows were too soft for our preference. The main issues are with the ongoing and deferred maintenance here. The front driveway is under construction which is a loud eyesore for guests plus inconvenient for access and parking. Thankfully the friendly valet service was affordable and very helpful given the busy street/ hotel. The Interior spaces all have worn, stained carpets. Chair pads are worn and broken down. One elevator not working. However, It seems that there is some investment going on with painting the exterior and I am optimistic this special property can get to 4 stars or better once they finish the major work and then keep up with maintenance and strong guest service. I would return in the future if they improve the facilities.

My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our anniversary. This is a beautiful, historic hotel. The staff was nice and always there to answer questions we had and gave good tips for sightseeing around town. This hotel has valet parking for a reasonable fee and we were always able to get our car without a long wait. The room was spacious and clean. The hotel is undergoing some construction and renovations but that was outside from what I saw. While not the most aesthetically pleasing, I understand that it has to be done at some point and was pleased that it wasn’t noisy! There is also a great restaurant at this hotel. I recommend reservations to make sure you can eat when you want. Overall, great stay and I will definitely book again when we return.

Room was very small for the price we paid

Staff is friendly and helpful

Bar hours, close early
