It’s old. If that’s your thing then you’ll love it. I like modern showers, mattresses, and thermostats that work so it wasn’t for me. Location in downtown Durango is second to none though.

Nice Hotel

The hotel & room was great. The Mahogany Grille was amazing! The only downside of the hotel is that there are steps you must take your luggage up & we had A LOT. I would definitely stay again.

If you stay here, take time to explore the antiques, pictures, memorabilia all around the lobby and adjacent rooms. Truly a unique, historic ambiance. Rooms outfitted with antiques. However, our room was small; the bathroom was small and the shower tiny. Not a deal-breaker, though. The worst part was the parking situation. There is limited parking near the hotel, and some extra parking a block away. Unloading and getting luggage to our second floor room was a challenge. One elevator that can only fit two people and two suitcases. Location was close to southern Rocky Mountains; a drive to Silverton and Ouray are a must if staying in Durango.

Staff were very friendly & helpful! When I requested a room change due to street noise, they promptly did that & moved my luggage while I was out! The "Cowboy" bar was the best! Good food, live music & excellent drinks!

We loved our stay at the Stater! What’s not to like about history, old-time tradition and beautiful architecture? Plus, it’s within walking distance from everything you’d want to do downtown. We’ll definitely be back!
