What guests think

Glen Eyrie Castle & Conference Center A Ministry of the Navigators offers a unique, serene retreat beside Garden of the Gods, with breathtaking grounds, abundant wildlife, and an included breakfast frequently praised for both quality and castle‑patio views.

Rooms across lodges and the castle tend to be simple or dated, often without TVs; some report thin walls, very small bathrooms, occasional basement or no‑view rooms, and variable Wi‑Fi or cell reception. Facilities emphasize nature—private trails, castle tours/tea, and a coffee shop—but on‑site dining is limited (the cafe closes early), alcohol is not permitted, and parts of the castle have been under renovation. Service is widely described as warm and helpful, with rare notes about delayed check‑in or housekeeping. Expect a peaceful, retreat‑style stay focused on scenery and quiet rather than full‑service hotel amenities.

The location is absolutely beautiful, I love how they had a pretty consistent breakfast menu but yet they changed it up just a little bit every single day. The only area that really needs some improvement is the hiking on property. They need to spend the time to have better Signage and trail indicators. You really can’t tell when you arrive to a place and you really don’t know where to turn. This would be a great opportunity for a local Boy Scout project or a group that’s working on. Otherwise it was perfect. I wish we hadn’t gotten on the hiking trails and wasted a good hour.

The venue served as the perfect location to retreat to after a long day of conference sessions. Access does require ground transportation. Snacks can be purchased for a late lunch, but does require guests to leave the property to grab dinner. Staff accommodate my need for a small fridge for my room to be able to store my medication.

What an amazing experience at Glen Eyrie!! The accommodations were top notch...rooms and grounds were immaculate. The daily breakfast alone made the stay worth it, but they offer so much more! Eagles live on property near castle, so you'll likely spot them. Almost 800 acres to hike on the property, which borders Garden of the Gods; so you'll have essentially your own private views! There is also a coffee shop/gift shop/deli on the grounds. If you're planning a trip to COS, do yourself a favor and stay here!! Note: no TVs in rooms but there is Wi-Fi. Also, no alcohol permitted

I didn’t realize that the Springs had so much history, we went on the castle tour and it was wonderful. The Glen Erye Castle was beautifully maintained, you could have tea there! There are lovely rooms in the castle that you can rent for the night. The grounds were magical, I stayed here in the dead of winter and it was relaxing and lovely. There are no TV’s in the rooms and I believe that makes you slowdown and enjoy your surroundings. I will be back this summer to discover the trails, wildlife, and beauty of the property. The staff was warm and friendly. and the lady who hosted morning breakfast was joyful and fun. Breakfast was great, hot coffee, eggs, sausage, pastries, fruits and cereals, it reminded me of a European breakfast fitting a castle. This is a hidden gem… Glen Eyre now joins The Cliff House as my favorite places to stay in Colorado Springs.

Grounds where emaculate. Castle was small but beautiful. Trails where from easy to somewhat challenging. However, this is a NO alcohol establishment, it is prohibited. If you want a drink nearest bars are around 3-6 miles away.

I love everything about Glen Eyrie! The grounds are spectacular and the service is excellent. All the staff are friendly and seem to love their jobs. It’s not a “regular” hotel - there are no TVs - the focus is on getting away to have some quiet time to refresh spiritually. In the Big Horn where we stayed there is a community kitchen/refrigerator available with tags to label your food. The common room with gas fireplace is beautiful to relax in the evenings. Hiking trails are everywhere, big horn sheep and turkeys in abundance on the property. And it’s still close to restaurants, shopping, and other attractions in the area. I can’t say enough good things about this place. Oh the hot free breakfast was top notch as well!

We had a lovely, relaxing stay at this gem nestled next to Garden of the Gods. The property is beautiful and the staff is very welcoming and knowledgeable about the history behind the hotel. They were doing construction on the castle when we were there so we could only see the first floor. We stayed in one of the lodges. The rooms are simple and clean. Great for an affordable getaway and home base while you explore Manitou and the surrounding area.

The grounds are spectacular and everything is immaculate and clean. This is not as much a hotel experience as a retreat. The rooms are a bit spartan and there are no TVs. It’s designed to relax and reflect. There is very good WiFi so you can access everything you like. We stayed in cedar lodge and my only complaint is the ‘musty’ smell in the entire building. Other than that, this place is romantic and relaxing.

This is a very different kind of property- multiple lodgings at varying price & decor/amenity levels. This room was in a basement with a small window looking out at a beautiful sandstone formation - NOT happy I didn’t have the advertised “Mountain View” from a basement but sure, there was scenery. Lots of noise from adjacent rooms! Very comfy bed & nice bathroom. It’s an expansive property - The Uber driver couldn’t find this particular lodge

We stayed in the Big Horn Lodge, which looked nice from the outside. I'll describe the room as spartan. There was no TV, fridge, microwave, bedskirts on the beds, or doors on the closet. The bathtub lacked grab bars and a bath mat---my wife slipped. The room had a QR code for the Cafe, which closed at 5:30, but the website apparently hasn't been updated since Spring.

I'd give it ten stars if I could We were pleasantly surprised that the property is basically in garden of the gods and around 5 mins from town. We did the cog train to get to pikes peak about 20 mins away & highly recommend Overall great "central" location to main attractions

Loved that the property was so spacious with lots of walking trails. The castle is beautiful and the property setting is in such a lovely area with the rocks formations all over considering it borders on the Garden of the Gods. Explored the bottom floors of the castle which are open to view and this wonderful, knowledgeable gentleman John showed us around. Gentleman at the front desk was very helpful too If you are wanting to get away from your usual hotel settings I would recommend. The out buildings where the guest rooms are are pretty basic and simple but had everything you need. It’s the beautiful property and the castle setting that makes your stay special I would stay here again …..you feel out in the country and yet still very close to Colorado Springs for restaurants
