The Hotel Telluride

“Top choice for Telluride”

I was surprised to find such a nice hotel here. The room was very well furnished, lots of nice features for a high mountain town. Friendly staff. And be sure to have breakfast at the hotel. Best bacon ever – – a large serving of thick crispy bacon, and a very cheesy omelette cooked to perfection.

“Ok, but the parking...”

Conveniently located, within walking distance to center of town. Room was fine. Rather pricey for what you get, but hey, Telluride. The one thing that I did not appreciate was how parking was done. Basically, was told that if you find a spot to park in the garage, best not move your car unless you … more

Conveniently located, within walking distance to center of town. Room was fine. Rather pricey for what you get, but hey, Telluride. The one thing that I did not appreciate was how parking was done. Basically, was told that if you find a spot to park in the garage, best not move your car unless you want to lose your parking spot. If you do, you can try to find street parking, but during the day parking nearby is time restricted, so you would have to keep moving your vehicle. Not an ideal situation for paid parking. As it was, we chose to not move our car for 3 days, rather than fight the street parking mess.

“Cute, cozy place!”

A quaint, cute hotel offering 2 stand alone hot tubs, a gym and dog friendly… with a $25 charge per dog per night. Doggie bags and a biscuit given! Cookies offered in the evening, coffee, tea in mornings with an on sight bistro. Lobby has fireplace, cozy! The room is small. A small desk, one overst… more

A quaint, cute hotel offering 2 stand alone hot tubs, a gym and dog friendly… with a $25 charge per dog per night. Doggie bags and a biscuit given! Cookies offered in the evening, coffee, tea in mornings with an on sight bistro. Lobby has fireplace, cozy! The room is small. A small desk, one overstuffed chair with ottoman. I liked there was a refrigerator, microwave and a small wet bar. There is outside access with the first floor rooms. After maid service the door wouldn’t open. A small square patio… ours had one chair with a 3 foot drop off, no railings. So we didn’t use it. The electricity went out twice, once for over 30 minutes. Interrupted working remotely. Parking is on a first come first serve basis, $20 a night. Second night, no spots. I asked for that night’s refund and got it! No real views but location is good about a 5-10 minute walk to downtown and free gondola to Mountain Village. With fees nightly stay in July was about $500 in July. But hey, it’s Telluride.

“A great choice in Telluride”

We had a great stay at Hotel Telluride for four nights 6/28 – 7/2 2026.

We had a great stay at Hotel Telluride for four nights 6/28 – 7/2 2026. It was our first visit to Telluride for a milestone birthday and we wanted a place with AC, which those are harder to find in this high mountain town. We found the hotel a good match and really liked being in the town itself, as opposed to Mountain Village area. We appreciated the hotel services over a rental/condo. I felt quite at home once we settled into our junior suite. We booked this larger room for the extra dining area with living space. We had room 316; I believe there are only 2 rooms of this category. While I would have preferred a room further down the hall, in a quieter area away from the elevator, being right next to the elevator worked out okay. We didn’t really hear too much unless it was at the start or end of the day with various housekeeping carts rolling out. The AC in the room worked really well and I thought the bed was quite comfortable. The bed linens are higher quality than average, which was appreciated. The other furniture is looking a bit worn and outdated, but worked fine. The kitchenette area was great and we used the fridge and dishware set for preparing light breakfasts, lunches and the ability to reheat leftovers for dinner. (Clark’s market is just about 1 block away, very quick walk for groceries/supplies) There is a Keurig in the room with various k-cup options for coffee/tea/cocoa. The coffee/tea set up in the lobby is nice all day, and at 4pm there are cookies, but they go fast. The underground parking area is tight, but we were able to find spots at check-in (around 3pm on a Sunday) as well as following a hike and return around 11 or 12 noon on a Tuesday. We didn’t use the fitness room or hot tub. We thought the staff are friendly and helpful, good communication on the phone ahead of the trip. We enjoyed the hotel-provided complementary shuttle service. What a great feature! Just call them up and they are usually ready really quickly, or back within minutes after dropping off other guests. Even though the walk into town was only 5-10 minutes, sometimes you just need a ride after hiking all day! We also used the town-provided free Galloping Goose shuttle that runs every 10-15 minutes in town at multiple stops. West End Bistro is attached to the lobby. Service was decent, prices were high as expected for the area, but food was good. We only tried dinner one evening, other nights we enjoyed off-site restaurants. (enjoyed trying Brown Dog Pizza, Side Work speakeasy and Butcher and Baker for desserts or breakfast) If we ever have the opportunity to return to the area, we wouldn’t hesitate to consider Hotel Telluride for another stay. Areas of potential improvement: The microwave was really hard to open, it is an entry-level model for sure, but did the trick for reheated food. If the mini fridge had a little freezer section for ice packs, that would have been appreciated. Cabinets in the kitchenette area could use bumper pads to not make so much noise upon closing The toilet seemed low, consider a taller size for future upgrades/replacements The quality of toilet paper and tissue could be improved Vacuuming should be more thorough; I found a dried cranberry at the edge of the closet doors.
