Top Historic Downtown Durango Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn & Suites Durango

10/10 Excellent

"You need to replace the old tore up carpet in the hallways. Looks very dirty and ghetto"

The Rochester Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed everything about our stay at The Rochester Hotel. The property has so much charm, the rooms were incredibly comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The location is unbeatable for exploring downtown. Even had a late night guest (Big buck) pay us a visit outside our room (105). We wouldn't change a thing and will definitely be back!"

Club Wyndham Durango

10/10 Excellent

"Based on some of the reviews, I was expecting this place to be a little rundown, so we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The rooms appeared to have been recently remodeled and were absolutely spotless. The bed was also very comfortable. This was our second stop on a road trip, and it ended up being one of our favorite stays. The hotel is just a short walk from the train, which made it incredibly convenient, as well as from a lot of cute shops and great restaurants. The staff was amazing and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We truly enjoyed our time here and will definitely be back! Plus. The elevator does work!"
