Blue Door - View from the nook/window area - Hotels Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

Clean, homey, inviting, good breakfast! Great for kids!

So I reserved the King Suite for the fact that it has a jacuzzi inside. When I got there, turns out the jacuzzi was leaking so they couldn't rent that room. Completely understandable. Andrew called like 5 other lodges nearby to help me get in somewhere comparable, with discounts. What a nice guy with amazing customer service. Beautiful place. Will be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, awesome lodge in the Estes Park area. read more

Nicely equipped room, comfy bed, friendly, helpful staff, lots of great breakfast choices, close to everything.

We had a great experience here. Bonus points for a military discount. Our room was exactly what we'd hoped for, super clean and comfy. The continental breakfast was perfect every morning before heading out to explore. The cookies and popcorn every afternoon were the extra touch needed plus snacks to hold us over every day. The orange water they always had was so delicious! Definitely a lot of small comforts that made the stay extra nice for us. The location is perfect, close to everything. The service was awesome, my husband, true to form, forgot his glasses at the hotel and they called us and offered to ship them to us which was so appreciated. We will totally be back again! read more

I'll start by saying Estes Park is absolutely beautiful but this is NOT the place for your visit. "Quiet times" are from 10pm to 7am so if you want to have any fun on the weekends don't come here. The younger staff in the lobby were great but the manager and owner walk around the building watching over you. They are just blatantly rude and no hospitality presented. Your room will also be cleaned at 2pm. Highly recommend Estes Park but terrible experience with management at this place. read more

Great little place with friendly staff, very clean rooms, and so close to downtown Estes. I'll definitely recommend this place to others.

Perfect place to stay when visiting Estes; comfortable, clean rooms, great breakfast included to kick-off your day! Added AWESOME surprise, was John checked us in & went WAY out of his way to give us some incredible tips for Colorado! We took him up on travel tips & restaurant ideas & loved it! John cared a lot about us & made this stay even better! Thank YOU! read more

My husband and I stayed at Blue Door Inn a few nights while we were in town for a wedding. We appreciated the well-kept room, the continental breakfast options (during COVID a lot of hotels have not well accommodated breakfast), and the low price! Very nice staff, as well. read more

We loved it here!! Updated and super clean. Free breakfast, which was perfect to start our day. Tons of activities on the premises. Everyone was very nice and accommodating! The shower was wonderful and linens were so soft we are considering buying our own set - an option they offer!! read more

Staff is amazing, a nice view, rooms were clean, nice pool, very simple, good breakfast selection. Would recommend this hotel:) They will not disappoint. Good location right by the rocky mountain national park! read more

This is an older hotel but its been remodeled. The things I liked about staying here were how clean the rooms were and the lobby. The staff were so nice too. The room we had was a Queen size bed. It was small, but it had everything we could need. The breakfast was nothing special but it was good. read more

Enough AC and USB charging outlets in the room for every device you own and more. Outstanding value if all you need is modest accommodations. Breakfast is limited but will get something on your stomach before you begin your day out in town or the mountains. Staff is friendly & helpful on all fronts. read more

This is a nice property. Right off the main road into Estes Park, plenty of parking and parking lot well maintained, property well lighted/well decorated. Nice pool area, and a fire pit area, where for the 2 nights we were there, they had music for a couple of hours. Room was considered a suite, because there is an actual bedroom. A love seat for seating in the main area, along with a table and 2 chairs. Love seat could have been more comfortable. There is a nice area with several picnic tables and a couple of grills. They have a decent breakfast in the lobby, cereal, oatmeal, muffins, toast, coffee, tea, milk, juice, etc. When we checked in and out, front desk personnel alerted us to wildlife sightings in the area. The evening we checked in 2 elk wandered through the property, and very early that morning a rather big black bear wandered through the property which was caught on their surveillance cameras. Reasonable rates, all the employees were really nice. They have one washer and one dryer for laundry, which I felt wasn't enough. The 1st night of our stay I wasn't able to find them not being used, and the next night I was able to do one load. They could really use one or two more of each. read more

Great gem of a place. They had a cancellation for the Sunday of Labor Day weekend and open rooms the rest of the week. Very clean, beautiful grounds, friendly staff, snacks ... wow what more could you ask for. Bed was comfy the water was hot quickly for showers. We had a micro, refrig and Keurig coffee machine. Breakfast was included and the rates are good. Close to the park entrance and downtown. Love it. Highly Recommend. read more

We love this place! Friendly staff, beautiful views, clean rooms, and a great price! We had two nights in a king room with a jacuzzi tub and a fire place, with continental breakfast and access to a hot tub (and a pool in the summer) for under $250! (Mind you, it is currently the off season - I'm sure in the summer their prices go up.) It's just a few minute walk to Lake Estes, a few minute drive to RMNP, and a few minutes away from several local shops and restaurants. We could not be more satisfied with our spring trip to Estes Park! The Blue Door Inn is doing everything right :) we will be back! read more

JUST WOW! Close to town, the Rocky Mountain, and Boulders CO. Excellent service, friendly staff and owners. We are on our last night I will miss this place. The rooms are big and the beds are the most comfortable from all of the places we have stayed on our 2 week trip thru Denver, Wyoming, Colorado Springs . Thanks for making us feel at home. We will be back read more

Sorry, I don't agree. Huge problem with there Mangement and internal technology. Several tired travelers delayed for check in for 1 hr. Room was ratty, bad dirty carpet Our room was next to highway, so noisy until late. Needs updating read more

Excellent experience, from check in to check out. Extremely good value too! Binoculars ar available for rental, hot tub towels loaned on request - and they have half price tickets to the mountain coaster! Free parking on site, microwave and fridge available in the room, and friendly helpful staff at front desk read more

We made last minute plans to stay close to the Rocky Mountain National Park and Blue Door Inn was very accommodating. The evening and morning staff were very helpful, pleasant, and accommodating. The lodge was nice with fresh smelling bed linens and towels. Would love to come back again. Breakfast was simple but satisfying. Thank you Blue Door Inn! read more

To leave a good review is less than what this establishment, Andrew, and his employees deserve. Reserved a room that had an issue in it so when we arrived, we were offered the next best room or to look at any of the other available rooms. Then Andrew and the employee working the front desk offered to help us find room nearby that accommodated what we were specifically looking for and not only referred us to different, nice establishments, but also CALLED AROUND AND HELPED US. Andrew also offered us the room close to what we had originally reserved at an even more discounted price that the already low price. We ended up choosing one of the referred esrablishments but my guy and I will most definitely be back to stay with Blue Door. 10+ rating on the establishment, services, employees, and AMAZING customer service! read more

We stayed here for two nights while passing through. It was a nice place to stay... great rates and incredibly clean. You can tell the owners really take pride in their business. There were recent updates to our room including carpet. We will recommend to friends and family and will definitely be back again! read more

My stay at the Blue Door was great. The bed was comfy, the room was clean and the hot tub was PERFECT! Some small touches that I really liked were the showerhead that lit up according to the temperature of the water and I really liked and appreciated access to all the powercords. Small thoughtful touches that mattered to me. read more

This hotel was very nice and has just been remodeled. Breakfast is the basic toast muffins bananas oranges hard boiled eggs yogurt and cereal the coffee here is very good and they keep it fresh in the lobby all day until 10 p.m. at night. The room we chose was a queen room and was very small I would suggest getting a two bed room they are much larger. Rooms have a microwave and frigerator some rooms have a couch and small sitting area. They have a very nice pool and shuffleboard the night we got there there was someone playing music and they open outdoor Space by the pool very nice. This hotel is a 5 minute drive to downtown Estes where all the stores and shops are there is a Safeway where you can buy groceries there too. This hotel is about a 15-minute drive to Rocky Mountain State Park. What I like about this hotel is it had windows on the right and the left when you woke up in the morning you could see mountains on both sides of your room. The price we paid was $385 for 3 nights the first week in June 2018. I will be staying here again if we ever go back to Estes Park. read more

Friendly staff, extremely clean rooms. The bathroom in our room was small (because the establishment is older) but other than that we were very happy with Blue Door. We can comfortably and highly recommend this hotel/lodge read more

This quaint inn is very clean and well maintained. The sheets on the bed were so soft and comfy...as nice as any I've had in 5 star hotels. It's located very near the down town area with lots of good restaurants near by. There was live music by the pool with a fire pit for roasting marshmallows. Breakfast is nothing special but the coffee is excellent. read more

I really enjoyed my stay here! The room was spotless and recently renovated. The staff went the extra mile to insure that I was comfortable and informed about what the area had to offer. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in town. read more

We stayed here for a night. Check in was smooth and quit fast. Room was immaculate and grounds were beautiful. Staff was very accommodating. Rooms were outdated (I just say that for those who care) but that didn't bother us. The room was actually quite cozy! Overall for the price I'm pleased and we would stay here again. read more

The room was small, and there wasn't a jacuzzi, and the breakfast was okay, but they should've had more choices, but the view was great, so I rated it 3/2 stars read more

The hotel is completely remodeled. Located near the hustle and bustle of Estes Park, getting to the restaurant/shopping hub is a mere 10 minute walk or $7-10 cab ride. Owners are very down to earth, rooms clean and efficient, and breakfast is just enough. The horseshoe pit behind the hotel was fun too! They had this homemade bread out while we were here - so good! We would definitely stay here again. read more

This hotel has pretty much been completely redone and has a lot of outdoor activities on site. Only thing I have bad to say is that some employee walking around the parking lot in baggy shorts, baggy white tee and a flat bill hat though he needed to bother us for squeezing one extra person into our room. Sorry but no one is going to get an extra room for one extra person. They ended up saying it was ok. read more

We stayed here on June 24th & 25th. Room was adequate but small. They say we had a queen bed but I've never seen a queen bed so small - they must have custom made mattresses. Breakfast was minimal continental so since we were hiking we ate out to get a substantial breakfast. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. All together - it was A-OK but nothing special read more

We stayed here for two nights over Thanksgiving. We had the large room over the reception area with a fireplace, king bed, and jacuzzi tub in the room. The room was incredibly clean, the bed super comfortable, and the price was really affordable. They had a decent continental breakfast, it's close to everything in town, and they also have a huge library of DVDs and DVD players available at the front desk. I'd definitely stay here again! read more

My husband and I hands down loved our stay here. Cleanliness is very important to me and this place did not fail that one bit. Loved the updated/remodeled features. The shower was stellar and again extremely clean. We had a perfect view of the mountains. I also loved the fact that you can pick out a board game to play. Whooping my husband at Yahtzee made for a nice evening to remember. I still can't get over the price. Your hotel gave us a great vacation getaway with such an affordable price. We will definitely stay here again. read more

This is a lovely Little gem a motel! Five stars all the way around. Starting with the gentleman who greeted me and checked me in... Definitely friendly and gave great recommendations for restaurants around the area. Wanted to make sure we were comfortable. When I checked into the room I was blown away by the cleanliness. It is not a very modern room by any means, but it is clean and appointed nicely, and the views out each window are absolutely breathtaking. Cheerful sunny and welcoming with a very comfortable queen size bed. Went down later that evening to borrow some DVDs at the office, and the young woman who was working there was extremely cheerful and very very helpful and friendly. They must really hand-pick their staff to perfection! I'm going to leave the maids a nice tip because they really rocked the cleaning job. Lastly, I need to mention the pool area bordered by a lovely fire pit and shuffleboard court. You can't beat the value for the money here... I'm coming back again! read more

Had a very good 2-day stay here. It is an older hotel but the owners have obviously sunk quite a bit of money into upgrades. I would recommend a second story room (I think it was a little more $) as they are quite large. Rooms had all the needed amenities. Staff and hotel management were great. You can tell they put a lot of effort into making this successful. The breakfast selection was adequate but what was there was very good-make sure to get the homemade bread that is available. Overall a great stay. Would definitely go back. read more

Oh wow...let me just say that this is probably the worst experience my family and i have ever had while traveling. For starters, our tv was broken to the point where that wasn't an option. Second, our electricity went out which is something I've never experienced at a hotel. Third, the rules at the hotel seemed a bit strict to me. They really enforce "quiet time" from 10-7 (personally i feel like that's just a common curtesy that doesn't need to be mentioned). Then when we checked in the lady at the front made it VERY CLEAR that checkout is at 11 and shouldn't be missed. Not super hospitable but whatever. Lastly, we had put in our reservations that there would be 4 of us, upon arrival we only had 2 towels in our room. Obviously no one read our reservation note. Then, when my mom went to the front to ask for more towels we received one towel. I did give one star for cleanliness of the room. I just feel like for what you're paying (which is over priced for sure) you should receive more. I'm just thankful that we are only staying here for the night. read more

LED COLOR CHANGING SHOWER HEADS!!! WHAAAAT??? HOW COOL IS THIS?? Take my advice, take a shower in the dark at night. We have stayed in many hotels and I have to say that this one is one of the best I have ever enjoyed. Recently renovated under new ownership and the family staff is super nice! I LOVE that they had a Keurig in each room but not only that, what they didn't have was those cheapo depot accessory coffee packets with the 1 powdered creamer. They actually have real liquid creamers and real stir sticks etc. The coffee pods are a nice brand, not the mystery coffee usually provided in even expensive hotels. The price, for the value is amazing! We have stayed in some dive super 8s before for much more. They also have a very nice breakfast, more than just stale danish, watered down juice and terrible coffee, these folks actually do it right. Heated pool, outdoor sitting area, shuffleboard and even a basketball court. It's a pretty amazing little find in Estes Park Colorado! We will definitely be back! read more

Awesome hotel in Estes! Friendly staff, great location, big clean rooms, comfortable beds. We were offered freshly baked cookies at check-in and made aware of the bonfire/ s'more making/ live music they offered at night-unfortunately it was raining so we didn't go. They have a great pool, continental breakfast, and delicious coffee. I would absolutely reccomend this place to friends and family. read more

Super clean, great price and very friendly! We left earbuds in the room, and they called to tell us. It's the little things like that and warm cookies that gives the home-away-from-home feel. read more
