The rooms are a little out dated. No refrigerator in the room. Very small. The bathroom was nice and big. Very clean! Beds arent the most comfortable, but ive been in worse staying a various hotels. The staff is excellent. The mahogny restaurant is awesome. Our server was the best. I cant remember his name but he was very professional but still fun and had us laughing. Thank you

A must stay in Durango

The hotel was amazing with much history. The furniture matched the era of the hotel. I loved that each room had a journal you filled out & left. Only had the opportunity to eat in the Saloon while we were there & food & service were excellent. Hotel staff also very knowledgeable, courteous & kind.

Historic & nice

Great location and many great historical displays throughout the hotel. The saloon had great food and great entertainment. The only downfall was the extremely tiny bathroom and shower in our otherwise great room. It was as small as than a port a John! We had a queen & twin bed room as did our friends and their bathroom was completely fine. Parking is limited but free. Would stay again.

Best location in town! Close to many attractions and the railroad. The hotel is so charming, everything is beautifully preserved. It's a real museum! The saloon next door serves great food and night entertainment was a lovely bluegrass band.

Review Of Strater Hotel

This was a nice hotel. Stayed 2 nights. The location is great, right in the middle of everything in Durango. A block from the train station if you are doing that. Right near many local restaurants and bars ( as a side not, you must check our derailed as it is a great bar with great unique drinks ). Now the hotel is old, so the rooms are not very big and do not have a lot of modern features a new hotel would have. Speciically, no regfrigerator and shower stall was very small. But other than that, room was clean, bathroom clean and bed was comfortable. The bar was nice. Had a dinner there and the food and drinks were pretty good and the prices were not so bad. There was live music with a piano player and he was good. Parking was about 1/2 a block away. There is a closer lot but it is right behind the building and only has like 4 or 5 spots. But you can unload and pack up right at the front door. I parked my car after unloading and didn't need my car for the rest of my stay. Overall great place
