So we stayed in a king room for 5 nights. Super clean and even had a fireplace. Nice view of the lake. Had a laundry facility in the building which helped bringing less dirty clothes home. We really enjoyed our stay here. Saw so many elk by this area too. So close to the town less than 5 mins drive. We lived the lake and path. The staff are all friendly. We had Karen check us in great service and so informative on the hotel. The area is well kept too. Max also helped us at the desk he has great customer service so pleasant. Everyone we dealt with was really helpful. Def old stay here again.

We stayed on the lakeside and had the most fantastic views of the lake and mountains, including a breathtaking sunset. We dined in Ember restaurant 2 nights in a row and enjoyed the food, drinks, and view. Our days were spent hiking in the mountains and enjoying the National Park and the town of Estes. This will be a place we happily return to in the future.

Our stay at Estes Park Lodge was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Maxamillion, whose hospitality was truly over the top and set the tone for a wonderful visit. We stayed on the lower garden level, and to our delight, were greeted by an elk right outside our room—an unforgettable start to our mountain getaway! The location is ideal, just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park, which we visited three times during our stay. One of the standout experiences was the food. The on-site restaurant is a true gem. As a scratch kitchen, everything we had—from breakfast to lunch and dinner—was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Every meal exceeded our expectations. We absolutely loved our stay and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend this lodge for anyone looking for comfort, great food, and easy access to RMNP.

Great location and the room was very clean and updated. Unfortunately, we upgraded to a room with a view of the lake and paid $100 to do so. When we checked in, they could not find our reservation. Thereafter, we were given room 222.Right across from the elevator and close to the check-in desk. At first we figured we would roll with it. Our nights sleep was very bad in that the coming and going of people and people right above us were very loud. We seek compensation for the $100 we paid. Thank you.

Fantastic hotel. Staff are very nice and welcoming. The restaurant onsite is pricy for the amount of food you get and the waiters are rude. The hotel was very clean and the rooms are amazing! The view from the balcony was beyond words!
