An Iconic Hotel Since 1911
Reservations
You have a few options for booking your room:
- You can book directly with us. In general, this will ensure you get the best rates and room options. Just call or text us at 719-298-8908. Or, email us. However, if you call, we can help you pick the perfect guest room! So, pick up that phone and call our friendly staff for recommendations on the best room for you. 719-298-8908.
- You are also welcome to book through a third-party booking site like Expedia if you prefer. But why? Just call us! We’ll make sure you get the best available room at the best available price.
- If you choose to go to a third-party room reservation site and it looks like we are full, please call to see if any rooms have opened up. Sometimes that happens. You’ll never know if you don’t call.
- During train season, if you are riding the Cumbres & Toltec to Chama and back, we can make sure you get out the door in time to load the train at your leisure.
- Coffee is available in all rooms.
Reservation & Payment Terms
- Reservations will be charged midday on the day of arrival, unless other arrangements were made at booking (e.g., split payments).
- If the credit card on file is declined, we are not obligated to hold your room.
- If your card changes, please contact us prior to arrival to update your reservation.
- During high-volume periods (e.g., Memorial Day, Labor Day, or specialty train weekends), cards may be charged at the time of booking for direct reservations.
- If we are unable to reach you for confirmation and must switch your room due to maintenance or unforeseen circumstances, we reserve the right to make necessary changes to your reservation without verbal confirmation, though we will make every effort to notify you in advance.
