What guests think

At Silver Ridge Lodge, travelers highlight renovated, comfortable rooms with thoughtful touches like kitchenettes and full-size fridges, consistently friendly service, and a complimentary breakfast, plus reservable saltwater hot tubs and a sauna that many find relaxing after busy days.

Cleanliness and upkeep are praised across many stays, though a few guests reported issues like dusty floors, hair in beds, or minor maintenance problems. Some rooms near the highway or with thin walls can be noisy, parking feels tight, and the hot tubs require advance sign-ups, which not everyone prefers. Breakfast is widely appreciated for variety, but a handful of reviews found it basic or inconsistent. Overall, expect a thoughtfully updated, value-focused motor lodge with warm service and convenient access.

This is a great little roadside motel. Rooms are updated and clean, nothing fancy, but good. Very dog friendly with 3 areas for the dogs. Free breakfast was very good. Only downside was parking lot is very small and tight. Full-size trucks will have a problem.

Staff is friendly and helpful. Room accommodations were great with large room, desk, large walking area you can put your horse in if needed, separate area for sink, refrigerator, microwave, keurig and an extra sink apart from the toilet and shower. Wi-Fi is reliable and fast. TV is large and if you have a doctorate in remote controls {why 2?} you maybe able to change the channels/apps. The only challenge was the parking in that there were 20 pounds of cars crammed in a 10 pound parking lot. Most vehicles had bike carriers on the back of their cars and it made for a tricky maneuver to get in and out. Breakfast leave much to be desired with biscuits & gravy, pancakes, waffles, bagels, English muffins, something round that resembles eggs, and sausage. Coffee, orange juice, and milk are also provided. It's sufficient to get you going but nothing memorable. Overall the stay was pleasant and accommodations more than adequate. Oh yeah, having to make reservations to use the indoor or outdoor hot tubs was a little different. I hate having to know when I will feel like romancing the wife...especially with so many others around. I would rate this place as a 4.8 out of 5.

All lovely. Wish we would have known that the hot tub and sauna must be reserved and you cannot do that until you arrive. So don’t arrive after 3 pm if you want to reserve for the evening! Breakfast was like a chain hotel. It could be improved to suit the property. The rooms were very nice.

Located out on the main Hwy 50, but still an easy drive to downtown & along the river. Many restaurant options of all sorts, within reach quickly. Very very clean room, and our "King Suite" was spacious + comfortable. The bed was very good. Also enjoyed the hot tub in each of our two nights. Hope to return.

Great hospitality, the staff was very helpful. It was nice to have the kitchenette in the room. In addition to the hot tub, a sauna and saltwater hot tub are available for guests to reserve. We had no issues parking but during busy times of year, it's possible the parking lot could be filled up by multiple large SUVs or trucks.

The cleaning staff needs to cover their hair. We have come her many times before. Before this visit we never had any issues. It was always clean.

The room was clean and the staff was very friendly. We could tell that the room was recently remodeled. Unfortunately, the walls were paper-thin and we could hear everyone around us. We were on the bottom floor, paid extra for a mountain view, and yet the people upstairs sounded like they were moving furniture. We could hear them talking, arguing and their pet upstairs running around at all hours of the night. The police cars in the parking lot were a bit unnerving as well. The staff seemed very kind and none of what made our experience less than enjoyable had to do with the staff. I just felt that we paid more for the room than we received in satisfaction.

Older hotel has been upgraded. It had a nice feel and was clean. The bathroom was too small. I was on crutches and couldn't get in the shower or close the door when I used the bathroom. However, when remodeling the hotel, I can see there wasn't much that could be done about that. Could smell pot most of the night from neighbors. The bed was a true king size, not that small Hotel King most hotels have.

Aww man. I booked this place purely on reviews, but the room didn't spark joy. We had room #11 , which seems like a cool big fun room. However, they sealed up the fireplace, and it is right on the corner of a very busy street. The room backs up to that, and was incredibly loud. No blackout blinds, in fact 1989 verticals that are missing 4 blades. No dark and very noisy. Hvac is not good, weird reservations needed for hot tub instead of fcfs. No iron in room skip this one.

The owner stayed after hours until I could get there because my trip was delayed. Superior service, the rooms are really well appointed with top-notch fixtures and amenities, especiallyfor a motor lodge of this vintage. Plus, they have a sauna and hot tub and other things that you just wouldn’t expect, including a great breakfast And all in this beautiful setting in the Colorado mountains. I wish every place I stayed came close to being as good as this place. If you’re traveling through this part of Colorado, you have to stay here. The Silver Ridge Lodge is top-notch.

We didn't eat breakfast but I went down to check it out & it had a selection for everyone. Employee was very friendly & took the time to show me everything.

We liked everything about this motel. The location was great— right across from Salina’s Aquatic Center, which features mineral spring feed pools. The room was very clean and had a bed that you didn’t want to get out of. Guest can sign up for an hour long private soak in their salt water hot tub, which was very relaxing. Lastly, the Silver Ridge Lodge has a friendly and helpful staff.

This is an awesome 'motel' that has been rehabbed. Our room was perfect and balanced the old school feel (cool retro tile in the shower) in a totally redone room. It was spacious, bed was comfy, had a small fridge , microwave and Keurig. Breakfast was a 'continental plus' with eggs, sausage, B&G, Eggo type waffles and a pancake machine. Lots of other typical breakfast choices as well. We were very happy to discover this hidden gem in Salida!!
