One night of fun!
We stayed only one night but will definitely be back! Had a great time in the lobby at night singing with the guitar playing staff and other guests. We even played a game of chess and walked through the whole lodge reading all the history. Looking forward to returning!

Winter in Estes Park in a wonderful lodge
The winter experience is very different than that of summer, and The Crags is a great way to enjoy it. Quiet, comfortable with very friendly staff, a few days staying at The Crags while enjoying daytime activities in Rocky Mt National Park and the surrounding area is idyllic. Evening s'mores or ice cream sundaes by the fire is a perfect way to end your day. And again, I must mention the friendly, helpful staff that added to the nice environment.

Family Excursion
I went to the Crags Lodge with my parents for a night. The site I reserved the hotel on only sent one of my reservations to the Lodge. The staff was great and upgraded me for free since it wasn't my fault. There is a new pool and hot tub, although I did not see them. The room was very clean, although the suite part of the room was furnished in outdated furniture. There was a new TV with cable. The bed was very comfortable and I had a great view from my room. It is near town and dinner was very enjoyable in their restaurant. I would definitely stay there again!

Sightseeing tip:
Short drive from hotel
If you're going to Rocky Mountain National Park go early. There is a tendency for afternoon thunderstorms. If you're in Estes for a number of days you can get a park pass that is valid for 7 days, so you can spread out your trip.

Horrible and disappointing
Room was extremely below average. Bed was the most uncomfortable bed I've ever slept in and every noise from the entire could be heard throughout the night, including when someone walked up the stairs. We have stayed in Estes Park many times. We would never consider this place again. Very disappointed.

One night stay
70$ studio for one night for my girlfriend an I, very clean room and bathroom. Mini fridge, small stove and microwave, newer TV and an alright bed. Great view of Estes and very short drive to Rocky Mountain National Park. Room was slightly warm but opened the windows and fans made it just fine. Will be my go to for stays in the area! Staff was very nice and helpful with directions.

Looks good, but....
At first glance this place seems quite the catch. It's in a good location (but Estes is pretty small), right across from the brewery! Hill top, among trees. Kind of hidden. Then there were problems: pool, hot tub, restaurant all closed. If you're not on the 'city side' of the hotel, then your view is of the parking lot. Some strange engine humming noise at night. Renovation was loud. Staff assistance?? Alarm clock was BRIGHT...I unplugged it. No food options and no directions to point to food options. This place seems to reek of corporate mis-management. It's all about the numbers and the quaintness and relaxation are gone. I came here to relax and get away. I left more tense than at arrival. Won't stay here again. While basically nice, it wasn't much different than a Comfort Inn or $50/night place

Simply Amazing
Boyfriend and I went up to hike at RMNP and they was doing a special on this hotel, so we booked it and were both ecstatic when we got there and saw it. I've stayed at a lot of hotels at around what I paid and I wasn't expecting anything spectacular, but when we got there, the staff and other guest were all really friendly, and the hotel was beautiful. We got up to our room, and it was nicer than some apartments I've stayed in. It had a kitchenette, 1.5 bathrooms, two TVs, tons of windows and a window seat. I can say that this was definitively one of the nicest hotels that I've stayed at, and my boyfriend (who grew up staying at 4/5 star hotels) agreed. The only point to note is that there didn't appear to be any AC in the room. It was beautiful out, so we opened the windows and felt great, but I don't know how nice it would be in the middle of summer.

Disappointing
Estes is beauiful, but this was not the best place to enjoy it. The room was incredibly hot and what few amenities were available were hard to find. No restaurant service and no staff until we were checking out. The rooms were old and did not smell good.
