Overview

The Stanley Hotel is a uniquely designed venue in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Estes Park, Colorado. It invites guests to choose from a variety of accommodation options. Unlike other hotels, it has four different styles to choose from, Residences - contemporary and expansive condominiums; Aspire - one to three bedroom apartment style residences; The Stanley, which offers historic-style hotel rooms; and The Lodge which features a boutique feel and updated yet historically styled hotel rooms.

The classic Stanley Hotel is known for its charm and character. Over the years, it has also become known for the many modern amenities that visitors are treated to. Some of the most popular include 42-inch HDTVs, free Wi-Fi, seven Tesla supercharge stations, and stunning views of the surrounding courtyard and the Rocky Mountains.

With so much to offer it's no wonder that The Stanley Hotel has become one of the most in-demand wedding locations in the area. Those interested are invited to choose from a number of all-inclusive packages which include: complimentary dance floor, champagne toast for couple and guests, menu tastings for weddings of at least 75 guests, a professional banquet staff, and complete custom set up and tear down.

The Stanley Hotel is also a popular venue for meetings, conferences, and corporate retreats. It boasts over 14,000 square feet of outdoor space and another 13,000 square feet of indoor space which makes it easy to accommodate meetings and functions of all sizes. The on-site planner is there to help make a company conference or meeting one that employees won't soon forget.
