The Hotel Telluride

10/10 Excellent
"As a returning guest, I was disappointed with this stay. I was placed on the bottom floor next to active construction, and the noise made it difficult to sleep. I can’t say why that room was assigned to me, but after my previous experience with the hotel, it left me feeling unwelcome. On my last visit, staff told me I couldn’t bring my service dog into the restaurant. When I went to the front desk to address it, Bruce yelled across the lobby while I was speaking with staff. I had hoped management would handle that concern more professionally, but this time I again found management unfriendly and somewhat stuck-up. The food at the hotel restaurant was disappointing and didn’t meet the standard I’d expect from the hotel. The back side of the building also has a lot of clutter on the balconies, which looks out of place. I do love the location, and the hot tubs are amazing—that’s why I’ve continued to stay here. But I wouldn’t book a first-floor room next to construction again, and the overall experience has made me reconsider returning."
