The Appenzell Inn was a nice surprise for us on our vacation. It has lots of ammenities, close access to everything in Estes Park, lovely surroundings (including flower boxes everywhere), a decent breakfast, and the special touch of offering the makings for s'mores at their multiple outdoor fire pits on the property. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and the staff was available and attentive when needed. The look of a Swiss Chalet was charming. The only criticism we had is that the parking is tricky; if you are out past a certain time, it's very difficult to find a parking spot anywhere near your room. But this was a minor inconvenience for us. We really enjoyed our stay at the Appenzell Inn, and would stay there again.

A comfortable stay

Lots of choices and types of places to stay in E.P. One has to make the best guess based on the descriptions and reviews if you haven't had prior experience. So the Appenzell turned out to be pretty much as described and a good choice for a short stay. For an older property, most is more updated and in good shape. Plus: Comfortable clean room. Pretty quiet except if someone is stomping on the floor above (that didn't last long). Amenities included coffee maker with supplies and real mugs, sat/cable TV choices, DVD player with library in building, and nice gas fireplace. Interesting to have a large Jacuzzi tub by the bed that provided for a relaxing soak. Neutral: So many overstuffed pillows, hard to find room to put them. Very firm mattress which was OK, but bouncy so that if partner moved, I got bumped around also. Grounds in fairly good shape, but some work going on. Average continental breakfast (did not know this was included, so a bonus). Minus: Automatic minus one rating point for non-working sink drain closure. Is there one hotel in America where the drain plug works properly? It felt weird to take a shower in the Jacuzzi tub right next to the bed, so I didn't. Used the one in the pool house instead. Spa tub was kind of murky. Pool house could use some updating and attention to details. Hard to lock door of shower room. Summary: Had a comfortable few days and would consider here again if back in area.
