Ouch

I've stayed here before and have always liked the accommodations and location. However, this time, my knees took a beating from the bed frames. Mattresses were fine but the wooden frames had corners that protruded from the mattress and they had no foam or padding and they are right at knee level. If I hadn't hit my knees on them several times, I wouldn't even mention it, but I felt it enough times that I HAVE to bring up the concern. Other than that, I enjoyed the hot tub and had a good night's sleep in the comfortable bed. Thank you for your hospitality.

Travelled with family
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This hotel was very clean, had a full kitchen, cute deck next to the river and comfortable beds There were many personal touches to the room such as towels folded into swans or fans. The customer service was great with updates via text and calls. When we arrived you could tell it used to be a motel, but they maintain the property. The walls and ceiling were quite thin and we were woken up by the sounds of the guests walking around above us. The fireplace was not functional with wood or gas, only with a tin of flammable gel that provided no heat and little flame. The continental breakfast was very minimal with yogurt, beat up fruit, prepackaged Danishes and very sweet juice. We went out for breakfast, so that did not save us any money. Overall, expect a motel with great customer service.

We booked the Double King room after another hotel failed to meet our expectations. Right off the bat the staff was wonderful. They called and informed us we could check in early. The room was fantastic. The entire site was very clean, maintained and family friendly. The kids loved the indoor pool and we loved the hot tub. Only thing i could say is do laundry intown. Their machine is very small but their dryer takes hours to dry. After two hours we had to just let the clothes air dry lol. Vent was clean, temp was on high. Just wasnt able to get them dried. I only list that because they ask for feedback. Thats not even a deal breaker though lol. They even called to tell us our gloves were left behind and offered to mail them back. The staff was phenomenal. Located perfectly, Rocky Mountain national park is just minutes away as is shoppong and dining. We cant wait to come back. Estes always ensures we feel at home.

There were many personal touches around the property and room that stood out from typical chain hotels. Friendly staff, clean, wish we could've stayed longer.

We really loved the amenities on the property like the hot tub and heated indoor pool. The proximity to restaurants and shops in Estes Park was a bonus. The staff were very welcoming and answered any questions we had. Definitely will stay again when visiting the area.

We enjoyed our February stay at Murphy River Lodge! There was plenty of available parking and we were able to easily walk downtown for shops and dining. It is a short drive to the Rocky’s. The staff were very welcoming and offered coffee and popcorn in the lobby which was very nice. I would stay here again.

Family winter getaway destination

Great stay with our kids, (6 & 8). The room had everything we needed, lots of space and great amenities. Close to Main Street but still very peaceful. Indoor pool with hot tub was perfect for a winter getaway.
