I took my daughter back to Colorado where we were posted at Ft Carson. We stayed here for 2 nights while we toured the many sights of Colorado Springs. Julie was fabulous. Our AC was broken (during a heat advisory)in 2 of 3 rooms. She wasted no time moving us. The food is amazing! Breakfast is a must. Valet is fantastic after driving through the mountains. All of the staff were kind and accommodating. We will be back!

It’s a very beautiful property with lots of potential, but it’s very poorly maintained. In the afternoon in the room as well over 90° in the staff will not do anything to fix this. The shower was either scolding, hot or freezing cold no in between. On the morning of checkout, we woke up to the Entire hotel smelling of sewage.

The Cliff House is a beautiful historic hotel whose staff goes out of their way to provide a care free enjoyable experience. They were all very accommodating and friendly and we recommend them highly for a nice week or weekend in the Manitou Springs area. Their morning buffet was hearty and tasty and their dinners were absolutely fabulous.

Historic and elegant
This is an old building but very well maintained and if you want to be in Manitou Springs it is wonderfully convenient. The entire staff was absolutely wonderful. The breakfast buffet is $15 and very good. So many hotels are charging crazy prices for breakfast this was refreshing. You can also order ala carte. We ate dinner here one night and the food was good and service elegant. We hated to leave.

I loved the aesthetics of the property; the furnishings were so comfortable and beautiful. The staff was very warm and welcoming. The valet parking was a plus. Even though there was an extra $15 per night, it was worth the convenience of not being concerned about getting a parking ticket on the street and the assurance of the car's safety in a garage. The restaurant's breakfast buffet was truly a delight and Tobey, our waitress was the absolute BEST. Such a relaxing way to start the day. We did try the evening meal in the restaurant and though the food was acceptable, the flavors were not as "gourmet" as we expected and did not wow us for the price. Our waiter, Ian, was a delight and very attentive. The alternative of having other restaurant options in the area within close walking distance kept this from being an issue. I will most definitely stay at The Cliff House if I ever find myself heading back to the Colorado Springs area.
