We really enjoyed the property and had an amazing time celebrating our anniversary here. Wish the staff had better attitudes and were friendlier to the guests, felt like an inconvenience when needing their attention. I was not pleased to see they charged me multiple times over the month of April due to incorrect billing without any notice and didn’t seem to care when I called to get an explanation of why they charged me again 3 weeks after my stay. It was really unfortunate and not sure I will be staying again.

McKayla, I sincerely apologize for the miscommunication regarding the second charge on your account. I have confirmed that it was due to being undercharged at the time the reservation was made, and our staff should have corrected and communicated this at the time of check-in. I apologize that this did not happen. I am happy to hear that you otherwise enjoyed your stay, and hope to see you again soon!

We needed an extra bed for our son and the property manager went out of his way to accommodate us. He was professional and courteous in every way and introduced us to the staff in case we needed additional service. The property is getting additional investment to update the furnishings and external features which will make the facility even more inviting. Ridgway is a great little town with some great food options. We were especially taken with a little place called the 66 Eatery.

Not a resort
Loved the room and the hottub on the private balcony. I did not care for all the construction and remodeling of the whole property. I understand charging a resort fee when you have resort amenities. But, i did not appreciate paying a resort fee when the spa is closed for remodeling. The restaurant is on limited hours with limited menu. I feel like they shouldnt be charging a resort fee until they have everything opened.

Let down for the money
Not sure why we had to pay full price since the big pool wasn't open. that was a bit deceiving and not mentioned on the website. Also our room was advertised to be on a higher floor, but we were on the bottom and our view was a couple of storage containers and a dumpster. For the price we paid for that room I would've expected much more.

The Rooms are extremely clean and dining was wonderful, but no where was it listed that there would be construction due to new ownership. Hot tub off balcony did not work, continental breakfast was very simple. And the phone number listed did not work, and made it hard to contact the lodge. We were supposed to be comped one nights stay due to all the unknowns, but no one ever got back to us after several attempts of reaching out after finally getting a contact number.

We really enjoyed our stay! The room was spacious, we have an 18 and 19 year old that slept in one room and then our 4 year old stayed in our room. We had fun calling the cat, Sargent Pepper up to say hi! The hot tub was really big and never crowded. We enjoyed playing games with our family in the reception area. They had a fireplace and games to choose from, it was lovely! We liked that quiet time started at 9, the restaurant was above our room, so we appreciated that they closed about that time too, so we didn’t hear the chairs and noise into the night. Overall I recommend for families!

A great place with lots of character. They are making some nice improvements and renovations and we could tell a big difference from our previous stay. More options for breakfast would be appreciated but not a deal breaker.

We got “upgraded” to a better room randomly, and it barely had any hot water, tub had drainage issues and shower head would not turn off. Hot tub on patio didn’t work but that wasn’t a necessity. The set up was very nice however. Beautiful room. Just inconvenient.

We loved our stay at Chipeta Lodge this fall! We especially enjoyed the cozy yet spacious feel of our room and the beautiful pool and hot tub area. The staff members we spoke to were very kind and accommodating and were even able to help us check in early (an extra bonus after a cold and rainy night of camping before we arrived)! One downside of our stay was that a couple of the appliances in our room seemed outdated or broken. We couldn’t seem to get our dishwasher to do a decent job of cleaning dishes, and the remote for the gas fireplace was missing, but we were offered the option to switch to another room. Since we were just there for one night, this wasn’t too big of an issue. Overall, we loved our experience and would stay there again!

Look somewhere else if you value comfort
Jade at front desk was absolutely amazing. So accommodating and a delight to interact with :) The room was garbage. Nowhere near the $380 we paid for it. Bugs everywhere, bathroom window latch was broken so we couldn’t close it. The room was so far from being ADA friendly for my family member she couldn’t even take a shower due to the design. We were confirmed for a room a hot tub but apparently renovations meant that wasn’t true. No extra blankets, fireplace was broken (had sticker indicating it was out of order). I wouldn’t come near this place for the price until they finish renovating. Period.

Terrible. My room wouldn’t get below 75 degrees even though it’s 65 outside. Had to leave windows and door open to try to cool it down. When I complained to front desk, she gave me a bucket of ice and said I can access the pool to cool down. Restaurant is closed for renovations which I was not aware of. I was double charged. I complained, no refund. When checking out, no one was at the front desk. I found 2 employees who were also unable to find anyone to help. One of them texted the GM with no response. When I try calling the main hotel number I get a recording saying to contact via text. I sent a text, sent emails to the main hotel email and GM, no response. Found a number to the restaurant, that manager took my info, no response. Hotel owes me over $1000.

False advertisement, the room was nothing like it showed in the pictures they put us in a handicap room. Nothing worked in the room the fireplace didn’t work, the air conditioner, which came out of the wall a wall unit which was ghetto head sound like it had a bird noise it all night. You can hear the people upstairs like they were right in the room with us. it really was a bummer we thought we were gonna have a nice place to stay and then they charge my card $319 for incidentals which we spent nothing there and really messed my account up. I’m not happy at all.
