Great hotel. The room was very clean and the antique furniture was very nice and the bed was comfortable. Whenever we have a chance to visit Durango, we will stay here. We enjoyed the bar with piano music and the bartenders were very attentive.

Beautiful historical hotel. The entire hotel is in period furnishings and the staff is exceptional. They also provide an historian for a tour of the hotel. There’s several eating options on site. We ate in the Saloon and the food was delicious. We are so glad we stayed here
