The Historic Crags Lodge draws travelers with its historic mountain charm, sweeping Estes Park views, friendly staff, and generally clean, comfortable suites with handy kitchenettes, though some rooms feel dated and summer stays can be warm without air conditioning.
The hillside location is convenient to downtown Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, though several guests preferred to drive rather than walk. Amenities like a hot tub, pool, game room and free laundry add appeal. Dining is limited or seasonal with no breakfast or lunch, but guests who dined in reported good meals. Expect a low-frills lodge experience focused on scenery and a generally quiet setting.

We stayed in one of the studios, it was charming and cute with a good view and had everything you could ever need, they thought of everything including free washer and dryer. We stayed two nights and enjoyed the hot tub which is open year round. I highly recommend this historical place.

We loved our 9-night stay and didn’t want to leave. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen area was well equipped and all of our suite was spotless. Linens were high quality as was glassware. The hot tub was fantastic and all staff were absolutely delightful. It was the perfect location- close to town, away from traffic and the views were breathtaking. We enjoyed walking to town for dinner, and had a delicious dinner in the hotel restaurant.

My son and I stayed here for a spring break vacation. The staff was so friendly and our room was outstanding. The view from the room was incredible! The kitchenette was sufficiently stocked with the items we needed to cook meals with. We spent several hours throughout our two day stay in the game room playing pool. The hot tub was nice - especially with all the snow fall.

The hotel has been around a long time and the bones of the hotel exhibit that old-style charm. The rooms were renovated and were small but comfortable. The restaurant was booked so we did not eat there. They don't have any breakfast or lunch food options. Maybe they will consider breakfast in the future. The pool and spa were really nice. It was within walking distance (with a hill) of the key downtown area which was convenient because Estes Park municipality decided that July 4th week was a great time to close roads and make traffic a mess. Sigh. It is a Hilton Grand property now which was a nice surprise.

Of course, I was there during a heat wave, so not the norm. But as we know, climate is now unpredictable. My room was comfortable, clean, and I enjoyed the views of the mountains and trees. The kitchenette was great. My only issue is it got too warm and they don’t have AC. I used fans in both rooms to manage. Oh, and I really prefer regular size pillows.

Crag’s Lodge was a great home base for the weekend while attending a friend’s wedding. The hotel shows its age, but the rooms are generously sized and spotlessly clean. The hotel does not have air conditioning, but the room stayed comfortably cool even during an especially hot summer. Would certainly recommend a stay here.

This is a very cool place—stuck in time of an era where things were simpler. The hotel was very clean and the staff was super. This is a rustic hotel, though, and in need of upgrades. Still, it was clean, comfortable, and quiet.

Rooms
Historic, lodge-style accommodations range from small rooms to spacious suites with kitchenettes and mountain views; many find them cozy and comfortable. Lack of air conditioning can make summer nights warm, and some note hallway noise or compact bathrooms.

Old restored property done well, except the fact that they don’t have air conditioning. Only window in our cut up misshaped room was in the completely opposite corner than the bed. Our room sweltered in mid-June and even though the room came with a noisy box fan, my wife and I had a rough night sleeping. All for what I consider to be a premium hotel price.

Crag's Lodge is a beautiful, old-fashioned lodge with a wonderful staff, (especially Kiko and Raoul) and amazing views and atmosphere! Lovely stay. Everything is a very close drive in Estes. There is an amazing looking Restaurant (the View) at the Lodge, and a Lounge, but neither was open during our stay. I think we missed something special. Fortunately, there are other, fantastic restaurants within a short drive (5 to 10 minutes tops. Highly recomend!

A lovely 100-year-old historic Lodge. I've been coming up to Estes Park for over 40 years and was surprised to find this little gem. It's an historic Lodge on the south side of Estes park. Out my window I could see into town and the old movie theater. It was close enough where I could walk to the restaurants and breweries that I liked. Keep in mind, it is an old Lodge. The place is kept very clean but it hasn't been updated in quite some time. The staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the area. I would definitely come back again!

Property was well-maintained and staff very helpful. Lack of AC in the rooms made it uncomfortable to sleep at night. Avoid top floor rooms during hot weather. The hotel is NOT within walking distance to downtown because it's on a hill. There's just one dining option within the hotel and they're not open during all weekdays.

We stayed here for one night and all I can say is that we had a fabulous time here. The place is in a great location, the staff are so friendly and the place is clean. There is also a game room and big fireplaces! The restaurant is only open during summer time. The view from our room was beautiful! Overall, our stay here was excellent and we will definitely come back!

Crag's Lodge is a beautiful, old-fashioned lodge with a wonderful staff, (especially Kiko and Raoul) and amazing views and atmosphere! Lovely stay. Everything is a very close drive in Estes. There is an amazing looking Restaurant (the View) at the Lodge, and a Lounge, but neither was open during our stay. I think we missed something special. Fortunately, there are other, fantastic restaurants within a short drive (5 to 10 minutes tops. Highly recomend!

We loved our 9-night stay and didn’t want to leave. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen area was well equipped and all of our suite was spotless. Linens were high quality as was glassware. The hot tub was fantastic and all staff were absolutely delightful. It was the perfect location- close to town, away from traffic and the views were breathtaking. We enjoyed walking to town for dinner, and had a delicious dinner in the hotel restaurant.

The hotel has been around a long time and the bones of the hotel exhibit that old-style charm. The rooms were renovated and were small but comfortable. The restaurant was booked so we did not eat there. They don't have any breakfast or lunch food options. Maybe they will consider breakfast in the future. The pool and spa were really nice. It was within walking distance (with a hill) of the key downtown area which was convenient because Estes Park municipality decided that July 4th week was a great time to close roads and make traffic a mess. Sigh. It is a Hilton Grand property now which was a nice surprise.

I booked this through the website, but because my flight was delayed, I arrived late. By the time I got there, it was around 11:30 p.m. Unfortunately, they had already closed. I tried calling them and knocking on the door, but no one answered or opened the door. So I ended up spending the night outside. In the morning, they opened and I was finally able to get inside. I stayed there for two days. Overall, it’s okay—it’ll do.

We had a great time in the outside hot tub and pool area. One of the best views from a hotel hot tub ever! Longs Peak in the background while you are surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds. Too bad the restaurant was not open. We have enjoyed it many times over the years. Highly recommend this hotel.

A true gem in Estes Park. The staff is so friendly and the lodge is quaint and historic. They have massive plans for renovations. Those will only add to the historic charm! Centrally located
