Our stay at Estes Park Lodge was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Maxamillion, whose hospitality was truly over the top and set the tone for a wonderful visit. We stayed on the lower garden level, and to our delight, were greeted by an elk right outside our room—an unforgettable start to our mountain getaway! The location is ideal, just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park, which we visited three times during our stay. One of the standout experiences was the food. The on-site restaurant is a true gem. As a scratch kitchen, everything we had—from breakfast to lunch and dinner—was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Every meal exceeded our expectations. We absolutely loved our stay and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend this lodge for anyone looking for comfort, great food, and easy access to RMNP.

Beautiful hotel right on Estes Lake. The rooms were cozy with our own fireplace and the balcony lake view is worth the upgrade. The drinks, dinner and service at the Ember restaurant was amazing and everyone at the front desk was so welcome and friendly. We also enjoyed the little game room with all the different board games. We were bummed to learn there is no pool on site and told by the staff that Expedia needs to update their property details.

We have been here several times. Not so sure we will do it again. Given the price I wasn't thrilled by our accommodation - in the basement, with the only window looking out to dirt and the underside of the 1st floor decks. It was also very noisy and the person directly above us decided to walk around loudly from 5:30am. I was also told that there would only be room services (e.g. replacing stuff, making the bed etc.) on request. Not much parking close to the entrance. Restaurant food is still good but the music was super-loud and irritating (of course, I am not young!)

CO sensor went off in the room at 230 am. According to the front desk it’s a recurring problem for that room. Try going to sleep after the CO alarm goes off. Very polite but this should never happen.

Everything was amazing aside from the fact that our room did not have AC or even a fan that was functional so we had to leave the windows open. Which for the time of year was perfect but later in the summer will definitely be an issue.
