What Guests Say

7.6

Very Good

316 reviews

Highlights

+Nicely decorated, comfortable rooms (some guests)
+Great mountain views
+Convenient location within walking distance to dining and shops
+Ample car parking
+Comfortable king bed and generous pillows

Could Improve

–Poor sound insulation / loud (traffic, other guests, A/C noise)
–Pool closed or dirty / uninviting
–Check-in/front desk hours problems and inaccurate 'room ready' notice
–Cleanliness lapses in some rooms (used razor, hair, shower issues)
–Room condition not matching photos; shower/tap problems
–Breakfast too light; no laundry on site
–Perceived poor value for the price

Cleanliness7.4

Mixed reports: some guests praised nicely decorated, clean rooms, while others found hair in the shower, a used razor, and an uninviting/dirty pool; overall slightly below top-tier cleanliness but generally acceptable in rooms.

Service7.6

Mixed service experiences: late/closed front desk and a premature 'room ready' email caused check-in frustration, but staff handling and standard operations otherwise appear adequate; rating held at target while acknowledging check-in issues.

Location9.8

Strong positive: excellent mountain views, short walking distance to dining/shopping, and ample parking were highlighted as major strengths.

Room Quality7.6

Mixed room quality: some rooms were nicely decorated, comfortable and spacious, while others were basic, did not match photos, and had problematic fixtures (luke-warm shower, a sprayy tap).

Amenities6.6

Weaknesses noted in amenities: pool was closed or appeared dirty/uninviting in multiple reports and there is an absence of on-site laundry, lowering the amenities score.

Value for Money6.6

Guests felt the hotel charged premium prices but delivered a more budget-standard experience (cleanliness, amenities and room issues), so perceived value is below target.

Food and Beverage7.4

Limited comments: breakfast described as too light; no major positives reported for F&B, so slightly below overall target.

Overall Experience7.8

Overall mixed/mid experience: attractive boutique styling and excellent location/views provided highlights, but noise, check-in problems, cleanliness lapses and amenities issues tempered the stay.

Disliked:Our shower didn't work. It only put out water that was so hot it actually burned my arm turning it on. We contacted the office and they said maintenance would fix it. Next day it was still too hot to use. We contacted the office again. When we came back in the evening it was still too hot to use. Our entire stay we were unable to shower. The morning we left we spoke with the front desk and they apologized and said they would contact management about a partial credit. After weeks we still haven't heard back. I would avoid this property.

Liked:I stayed at The Outpost for one night towards the end of my visit to Estes Park, having travelled over from the United Kingdom to explore Colorado. Estes Park had already given me some incredible memories, and it was lovely to spend one more night in this beautiful part of the world before heading back towards Denver. The accommodation provided a convenient base for my final evening in the area, and I was pleased to have found somewhere to extend my stay.
