A Living History

Known first to the Ute and Arapaho nations and later coveted by Anglo-Irish nobility, the history of Estes Park is one of adventure, hunting and healing. Then, in the early 1900s, after F.O. Stanley made Estes Park his home, The Stanley Hotel took its place in the history books as a jewel of the park. The rest is a history that continues to grow to this very day…what story will your stay tell?

Majestic Mountains

Known as the Gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park, Estes Park is far more than a stopover before the main event; it is a destination in its own right. From the beauty of the blue lake to the 200+ breathtaking trails, nature enthusiasts of all abilities come to bask in the restorative mountain air, see the stunning wildlife, and enjoy the welcoming nightlife. Situated at the head of the park, The Stanley Hotel is perfectly positioned for mountain adventure and well-deserved wellness.

Legendary Lore

If these walls could talk, they would tell all kinds of tales… A nightmare so vivid it inspired Stephen King’s cult horror novel, stories of guests who never checked out, and mysterious natural happenings. The Stanley Hotel holds a special place on every paranormal bucket list and welcomes mystery seekers to join tours, events, and stays curated with the other side in mind.

Transformative Restoration

Estes Park has been a destination of restoration for centuries, and, whether through the peace and quiet, fresh air, or lime-rich grounds, many guests have found it here. The legacy of mountain wellness continues to this day at the Aspire Hotel & Spa, where wellness treatments, mountain views, and curated spaces are offered to rejuvenate body and spirit alike.
