Great for a unique stay

It’s a very unique place to stay. Do not expect a 5 star hotel but that’s what we like. We like private and unique - and a safe place for our dogs where people don’t stick their nose up. Perfect for us

Old but nice

Manitou Springs has been renovating their older hotels. This place is like living in a lodge. Our little lodge was clean and roomy. A clear view of Pikes Peak. Restaurants nearby. Easy access to highways.

Historic & Clean

We enjoyed staying at El Colorado! The owner and staff were attentive, the room was very clean (I walked around in socks and they stayed clean), and the mattress was comfortable. This is a historic property so updating is complicated but they've done well with keeping it nice. I felt safe and there was lots to do nearby. Great coffee across the street. Was sad to leave.

Coziest cabins

The charming cottages are modernized but inside there is a perfectly balanced comfort factor and classical taste. Nothing was left to be desired...Absolutely worth the reasonable rate and perfectly located in Manitou Springs. The family run business is so far my favorite stay now in this area. Great, courteous service and 100% clean and cozy.
