Top Cripple Creek Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Colorado Springs I 25 Central

8/10 Good

"Construction occurring next door to hotel. Noisy and dirty in the parking lot. Hotel itself has improved since my last stay."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Colorado Springs

8/10 Good

"The rooms were extremely clean and had a great set-up. Only 2 of the 4 elevators were working during our stay, so getting up and down got bogged down at times. The pool and hot tub were great. The made-to-order omelets were a plus. The buffet had lots of items, just seemed like the staff struggled to keep up at times."

Century Casino & Hotel Cripple Creek

8/10 Good

"We still left some money there in the machies but we did it with a smie. Almost all the help were friendly and helpful. The two free breakfasts were great along with the snack before dinner of a hamburger and fries for $7. This was our third year of staying there and will do the same next year. Art"

The Antlers, a Wyndham Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed at the Antlers because we were there for a wedding and the venue was in the hotel. Beautiful setup for the wedding and the food was excellent! Rianne (I hope I spelled her name correctly!) was at the front desk when we arrived at 2:30am from Denver and was an excellent help, despite having her computer system go down and being by herself! She definitely deserves a raise for her calm demeanor during the challenging time! All the front service personnel were very friendly, helpful and courteous during the day as well. My concern was that the pillow cases smelled. I just used one pillow that didn't smell. I didn't ask for clean ones because we were barely in the room, which was cozy, on the small side. Amenities were standard. The air conditioner in the room is loud and the elevators may need to be replaced soon. I did get charged an extra $50 at the hotel for "incidentals" after my room was paid in full, which I still don't understand. Maybe it's to repair the place? Overall, the staff are what really made my stay a good one. I didn't get breakfast because we had to pay for it. Other hotels charge about the same or less and have complimentary breakfast. Again, we stayed here because the wedding venue was here."
