Top hotels in Briargate
The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs
Cool hotel, great staff with good amenities. Can't beat the price point. With that said, you get what you pay for. The place appears to be getting old. Broken window curtains you can clearly see from outside. No vents in the bathroom. Not a real fresh smell on initial entry of the room. Not horrible ...

Embassy Suites by Hilton Colorado Springs
The breakfast was always empty before the end time and also they only had 1 elevator for the whole hotel so it took forever just to get down to the main floor. It was so crowded the pool was a huge mess and the hot tub was dirty.

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Colorado Springs North
Check it was efficient and professional. Due to delayed departure from origin, staff had flagged requested room as reserved, and it was ready when I arrived late in the evening.
