"Perfect hotel for exploring Estes and RMNP"

10.0

Perfect location just minutes walk from downtown Estes and close to the entrance to RMNP. Cozy and clean rooms. Amazing price for the value provided. Office staff were friendly and had great recommendations for local food and activities. The pool was clean and well maintained. Breakfast could have included some hot items but was decent.

"Beautiful area. 2 minute drive from the heart of Estes Park. Quiet. Older but comfortable."

7.0

Staff were so friendly, and it had everything we needed. There was free coffee all day + free popcorn in the evenings.

Our room was great but the bathroom (not the room) reeked of cigarette smoke. It's a no smoking property but it seems like a past guest tried to get around that by maybe smoking in the bathroom with the fan on? It was just my room though. The other two rooms we booked did not have that issue at all.

Loved the river!!

Door into where our room was located was hard to open set times. Too many stairs for going to breakfast.

"Very relaxing, quiet place to stay in Estes Park."

10.0

Murphyโ€™s Lodge in Estes Park, CO is a charming place to stay right along the river. Our room was spotless and very comfortable. Our patio faced the river and we had a great view of some elk.
