Best for
This hotel suits travelers attending events at Colorado State University or in downtown Fort Collins, given its 0.5-mile proximity to campus and easy access to the city's museums and parks. It also works well for business travelers and groups needing meeting space, thanks to its 20 meeting rooms and business center, and for leisure guests who want pool and fitness access alongside nearby outdoor attractions like Horsetooth Reservoir and Lory State Park.
Travel tips
The hotel is a short 4.3-mile drive from Interstate 25, making it a convenient stop for road travelers, and it's close enough to Colorado State University (0.5 miles) to walk or bike depending on the exact building. Budget for separate parking charges, as self-parking is not included in the room rate. If visiting downtown attractions like the Gardens on Spring Creek or Gregory Allicar Museum of Art, both are within about half a kilometer to under a kilometer, making them easily walkable.
What guests say
Guest feedback frequently praises the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, the cleanliness of the rooms, and the appealing decor, along with appreciation for the Executive Lounge's complimentary drinks and snacks. Recurring complaints include inconsistent front-desk service, understaffing or training issues, and problems like lingering cigarette odors, delayed housekeeping response, and hot water outages in some rooms. Several reviewers also mention disruptive noise and crowding from large youth sports groups and events, including unsupervised children running through common areas and pools reaching capacity. Additionally, paid parking is a frequent point of frustration, with guests noting the added daily cost and strict enforcement.
