Cliff House at Pikes Peak

The attentiveness of staff, the character and charm of this historic property and the surrounding beauty was a much needed respite. We will be back! Upon arrival, we were greeted by Valet Matt who set the stage for a great experience with a warm welcome. The front desk was efficient and polite and got us into a great room. We had several meals on the Veranda, the Dining room and the at the Grill and each had exceptional service, bar selections and amazing food. Our room was full of charming touches, historic reminders and modern comfort at the same time. Articles and pictures posted everywhere paid tribute to previous guests and noted historical events and achievements.

My husband and I stayed here for our 2nd Anniversary. We were immediately greeted by Matt, who was very friendly, welcoming, and had such a pleasant attitude. The front desk ladies were also friendly One (forgot her name. Very pretty, young, brunette) helped us with finding the Shuttle 33. YOU GUYS ARE GOLDEN! We were upgraded to the Roosevelt Suite which was, hands down, the best! Bed was comfortable. The bathroom was a dream with a huge tub, heated toilet seats and towel rack, etc. The fireplace and sitting area was much needed for us to relax and unwind as we did several mountain tours in Manitou. The room also offered a nice size fridge. No microwave, but that was fine as there are several eateries in the area. (We stored water and soda in the fridge. It's needed for altitude). Room was always cleaned thoroughly and smelled very good each day. Valid drivers are exceptional too! I loved that we didn't have to wait long for our vehicle each time. They were prompt and friendly, even letting us know of places to visit within the area. The breakfast is very good as well. Make sure to try the biscuit and gravy and the lemon tarts. Sooo good! $15 is not bad for breakfast here! Valid is also $15 per day which is not bad at all! If you're in the Manitou area, this is a must stay. It's in the midst of all attractions, restaurants, and friendly people! Oh, and the spring fountains too! We're from Louisiana and this little town made us really considering moving here. It felt peaceful and Heavenly.

We liked the old charm of the hotel. It has such an interesting history. It is old but very well kept. We will definitely try to stay there again.

The location is great! I love the beauty and history of the hotel. I liked how they turned down the bed and left chocolates in the evening. We enjoyed the Red Mountain Bar & Grill.

The location and view are excellent! The room’s unique and antique furnishings and decor are very charming. The coffee and bath products are excellent. The bed is comfortable.
