Plan Ahead

While Glenwood Springs has an ample and varied inventory of lodging, planning early and making reservations now for your spring and summer vacation gives you the widest range of choices. When your hotel reservations are booked early, you can plan for other activities in Glenwood Springs that require reservations such as soaking at Iron Mountain Hot Springs, taking a natural steam bath in the Yampah Vapor Caves, visiting America’s only mountaintop theme park at Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, massage and body treatments at local spas, as well as reservations for popular activities like rafting and guided fishing trips.

This page alone may be all you need to select your ideal Glenwood Springs accommodations. If you’re still unsure, consider the factors below.

All About Location

Consult a map and choose a Glenwood Springs setting that works best for you. If you want to be able to walk from your hotel to dinner in downtown, lodging that is centrally located makes the most sense. If it’s important to hit the trails for an early morning hike or ride, select establishments that are off the beaten path.

Enhanced Amenities

You may know that your kids will burn off extra energy if there’s a pool available for them to splash around while you enjoy the hot tub and sauna. Staying in a room with a kitchen can help stretch a tight budget or make it easier for those with food allergies. If you’re on a family drive vacation, perhaps laundry services on-site are a must; or if arriving in town via Amtrak, you need the hotel’s shuttle service to give you a lift. All these amenities and services are available at Glenwood Springs hotels.

Just as every person and family is unique, everyone’s idea of the perfect vacation accommodations is different. Find lodging that’s just right for you in Glenwood Springs. Now is the time to book for spring, summer and even fall vacations!
