Top Cripple Creek Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Colorado Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great differently would stay here again. "

The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs

6/10 Okay

"The hotel itself is great. However, our room had a broken fridge which ruined all our food, the door would not close all the way. There was a stain on the mattress, our hair dryer did not work, and neither did our iron. The pool area is ok, the breakfast was great. The elevator was not working which is not ideal when dealing with a baby. "

Garden of the Gods Resort and Club

10/10 Excellent

"This place is awesome. The staff was so kind and helpful. The infinity pool was great. The restaurant food was to die for. They have Pilates machines. I ❤️ Pilates. Only thing I noticed was the blind in our room had a stain on it and the couch was pretty dirty looking which I didn’t expect for country club standards but over all I rate it highly and we’ll be coming back for sure. "
