The Blackhawk Tavern & Grill had VERY LOUD music until midnight. Spoke with hotel staff who say they have complained & reported the noise issue to the police department (ordinances state outdoor music to end at 10pm) and to the city, but nothing is done. VERY unfortunate to have such a nice business jeopardized by another business who doesn’t follow the laws for the good of all. Don’t recommend staying here when outdoor music is being offered in the area.

Absolute superb place to stay while in PDC! Within walking distance to all the venues that my wife and I love, including St. Feriole Island and the Depot Bar and Grill. The Backwater Bar and Grill just puts the finishing touches on my review. We will definitely be back!
