No complimentary breakfast, and no real options for breakfast in the town of Norwood, or really in the whole area until you get to Telluride.. the rooms did have a single fan and the windows opened to a pretty quite neighborhood so that made the no air conditioning issue less of an issue.. the area behind the hotel had a nice little courtyard with seating and a bbq pit so that was neat, and the bar next door was pretty fun and open late! Overall, for the price I would recommend!

I was pleasantly surprised - the hotel looked very new and was nicely furnished with modern amenities. The bedding was extra comfy and we had a very nice fridge and satellite TV. The shower was stand-up only; no bathtub. There was also free wireless, which I did not use. The front desk (owners?) were very friendly and had a lot of helpful info about the area; specifically what restaurants were open. I would not use this as home base if you are skiing in Telluride as it might be a long scary(!) drive in the winter but for one summer evening, it was just fine. Especially when you consider a similar room in town would cost 3 times as much.

Staff super friendly. I prowled around to walk my pup a bit and look around and saw that many of the rooms have sliding glass doors that open to the pool area. Pretty cute. However, the pool (in February) was half full and a green slimy mess, not very appetizing to look at. I think I would pass on the "charm" next time, and go with the ol' dog friendly standard (motel 6, or akin to) with more modern construction materials that keep the noise out more efficiently.

The good: We love the auto check in/out via the app and the room key on the phone. The room was…read morevery clean. TV programming was good. The bad: I know this is probably a personal preference but the mattress was as hard as a rock and my hip bones dug into it so much it caused an arthritis flareup. I had to remember to take two advils before I could get any sleep. The pillows were both extremely soft and both felt like a sack of socks that had been rolled up into donuts. You could stack all four together and your head would sink down to the mattress. By the time we checked out on day 3, I was absolutely exhausted. We went to our next hotel, an IHG about 3 hrs away, Pillowtopped mattress and a soft and firm pillow waited for me. I took a two hour nap there! Holy cow Hampton. I hope my next experience with you is better or it will be more last.

I asked if we could be assigned to a quiet room (as I had read reviews complaining about the noise). Shea, the clerk, responded she could not reassign the room because I had used Expedia. I told her I don't use Expedia or third party when booking hotels. Her response to me was that I did use Expedia. She continued to argue with me. I even allowed her to review the reservation on my phone and she claimed it was third party. I went to the hotel website and attempted to book another room to prove that the hotel uses webrez. She said Expedia uses webrez. Just unbelievable nasty rudeness from her. Like I was lying. Her tone was so nasty I would score it a 20 out of 10. I asked for the manager and she gave me a card with Andy Stoll's cell number. I called while at the desk, he screens his calls and did not answer. At that point Shea states that she sees where the problem is, that there is another guest with a similar name checking in tonight and they used Expedia. At this point she had already confirmed my first name. She apologized but there was no coming back from the nastiness. It unbelievable that someone in customer service could behave this way. She represents the hotel and should be terminated.

We had an excellent stay at the Camel's Garden Hotel…read more While it is an older hotel, you can't beat the location. It is located right next to the gondola. It does appear they may have renovated the downstairs common area. There is plenty of lounge seating, a fireplace and light oks like you can host a small gathering. We walked in and the front desk clerk who worked Wednesday was very friendly and even walked the luggage cart down to the garage for us. There is an underground garage that has shared space with the hotel condos. But it is $20 a day to park. I'm not sure if there is an alternative space outside to park overnight. The king room was very spacious and has a fireplace. Our friends stayed in the queen size room which was much smaller and no fireplace. There is plenty of seating in the room and has a large bathroom, wardrobe closet, 2 dressers and dining table. There is a large tv but unfortunately the WiFi is a bit sketchy so we could watch much tv. We even had a small balcony. The bed was very comfortable. Pillows not so much. Plenty of linens. There is a ski valet which is open from 8:30am to 4:30pm which is so nice to have available. We came down the hill late one afternoon and left our equipment outside the valet room. They were safe and sound inside the valet the next day. We had the nicest ski valets taking care of us, Jake and Miller. The hotel provides a free continental breakfast from 7:30am to 9:30am. Bagels & salmon, toast, fruit, yogurt, juice and coffee. The breakfast staff were very friendly. There is a nice pool and jacuzzi with views. A bar/restaurant is attached to the hotel which is convenient. Clearly a locals favorite. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Telluride.

Nice furniture and ambiance with the fireplace and various seating options. For the price this is one of the best deals in town. While it's by no means a modern hotel or resort, and is in fact a bit more on the basic side and a little outdated, you can't beat the location right next to the main Telluride lift and being right in downtown Telluride. I prefer staying here over Mountain Village as things shut down much earlier out that way. If I could have only a couple small suggestions it would be to see how they can get the rooms to not warm up so quickly (it was 10 degrees outside and I had the heat set to 64 and it kept going up to around 70 so I had to open a window). Then it was hard keeping a consistent temperature and I had to get up a couple of times during the night. The television steaming is very inconsistent and buffers or turns off for a few seconds, every few minutes. They also need refrigerators in the room. The beds are very comfortable but the pillows are mediocre. The giant tub is awesome as is the overall size of the room. The hot tub area just wasn't too appealing as the jets weren't strong enough and to get any jets you had to sit out of the tub with only half of your body submerged. It was awkward. Big hot tub but poor design. Needs to be a bit hotter and needs actual jets for both the low back and calves. I would recommend Camel's Garden Hotel to the middle to upper middle income skier who appreciates a great location and an ok experience. If you are fancy or rich then look at one of the boutique properties elsewhere.
