Convenient and affordable hotel that’s central to everything in Estes Park / short walk to the lake. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was renovated. Only issue is it is a bit loud when people walk by the room but not that big of a deal.

Double Queen Room. The room was very clean, beds were very comfortable with nice linens, bathroom was small no counter space. No closet, but a coatrack with hooks to hang your clothes. While the hotel is older, I found the room clean, comfortable and quiet. I would definitely stay here again.

This was our first night in Estes. Park had never been before.Hotel was great, except the hot tub was a little bit on the cool side. And the pool wasn't heated enough.Either, that doesn't mean that everything was good.

There were a lot of great things about our 2-night stay at the Coyote Mountain Lodge. Our room was located in the new building and was a spacious suite with a private balcony offering a stunning view of the surrounding mountains. A herd of Elk greeted us at our front door, which hung around the Lodge for some great viewing and pictures throughout our stay. The mattress, linens, and pillows were awesome. Bathroom and shower were great, as were the amenities that even included makeup remover wipes....nice touch. It's rare to be able to get a good night's sleep in hotels, but this was one of the best things about the Lodge. Now, the things we didn't like.....We arrived at 2:30 PM and asked if we could check in early. We were told that the room was ready but we would have to pay $20 for early check-in or come back at 4 PM. We opted to come back at 4. I believe the front desk person was not comfortable delivering this message because she was a bit abrupt and not very pleasant about it. The room and bathroom was lovely and very nicely appointed, however, the carpet was worn and dirt stained along the path from the front door to the deck. There was also a big piece [about 2" x 6"] of the carpet torn out by the front door which was not a good first impression. The coffee maker was substandard for a room at this price. We were also charged an additional $20 for a late check-out of 1 hour extra, but it was worth it to take one more mountain hike before leaving.

This hotel met all of our needs. The only thing that needs improvement is their continental breakfast. The food choices were very limited. The bananas were beyond ripe. The toasters did not actually heat up the bread into toast. It would be a nice addition to add, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay there.

Perfect Accommodations

It's not often that I get to say any establishment (restaurant, lodging, etc.) was perfect on all counts, but Coyote Mountain Lodge met that standard. From allowing me to bring my dog, to Cielo the front-desk agent, policies and people were wonderful. Estes Park is exquisite and when I return I will stay at the Coyote Mountain Lodge.
