We enjoyed the property. The restaurant was great and service outstanding. You can’t beat the view and the location is handy to hikes and tours. We had a small balcony, just right for two. The walls are a little thin but that’s the only negative.

Only hotel on the national park grounds. Sits right on top of the mesa and all rooms have a large balcony with a gorgeous view! I was surprised that there was no tv in the room, but I guess they’re going for the rustic feel. Room was nice, clean, good gift shop in the lobby. Shower and toilet was kid size, which could be a problem for a larger person.

You can’t beat the view, and the front desk staff are friendly and helpful. This was good because our room was lacking expected items (such as soap in any form, shampoo and sufficient towels and washcloths for two people for a two night stay) so we made more than one trip to the front desk to secure these items. Dinner on site is well done, but breakfast, which is a half mile away, left much to be desired.

Some of the food at the cafes and restaurant was excellent, some was only good. All of the food is overpriced for the quality received (it Is in a national park, after all, so not unexpected). The wifi and internet are spotty at best; I could only connect on the second day, and the internet speed was slow. There's no TV or microwave in the king bed room. There are very distant views, but appears pretty flat and featureless from this site. Next time I'll stay in Cortez and make the 90 minute trip to the archaeological sites.

We stayed a few days before Memorial Day weekend, and the end of their “off season.” Our room was fairly clean but the appliances (small fridge and coffee maker) did not work due to a bad outlet. Many of the sites were closed due to the off season and road repairs. The outside lights by the rooms were too bright for any sort of appreciation of their recognition as a Dark Sky Destination. Food in the Lodge was good but the bathrooms in the Lodge and Terrace needed some cleaning attention. Staff was friendly and helpful.

The room was very comfortable with a wonderful view. We would have liked there to be a microwave so we didn't have to go to the restaurant for a warm meal. Some of the dispensers didn't work for lotion and soap. A supplemental bar of soap and bottle of lotion would have been not. Staff was wonderful.

Liked the view - sunset from the room. Liked the food and service at dinner. Did not like that none of soap, shampoo or lotion dispensers worked. Room and roads seemed run down. Breakfast was at a different location and was disorganized. The manager on duty was very dedicated and doing a great job, but it seemed like she was stretched thin. We hope she will be able to turn things around there as the season continues, because Mesa verde is an amazing place!
