Top Historic Downtown Durango Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Durango

8/10 Good

"we stayed at another La Quita in on our way to Durango its breakfast set up was alot better and a lots better experience - the short fall at Durango was the breakfast - food and such were lacking and not a good experience for us"

Sky Ute Casino Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The property was very clean and had gorgeous views. We reserved the executive suite and had so much room to ourselves! It was great the pool and hot tub were so relaxing. We were wanting to have breakfast at the restaurant downstairs since there were so many tables open but we stood and waited for 15 minutes at the host podium and no one acknowledged us or let us know if there were any wait times for seating. So we left and decided to get breakfast in Durango instead. Other than that the stay was great and we had a fantastic time!"

Durango Lodge

8/10 Good

"Nice little motel in a perfect location for enjoying downtown Durango and watching or catching the train. We love walking to the great bookshop Maria's (on Main Street) and Steamworks Brewery when we stay. Movie theater is basically right next to motel if you have a rainy day. Close to lots of restaurants and fun shops, too."
