The Columbine was very quiet. The parking lot was full, but I didn’t hear a peep. Also I couldn’t hear any road noise. The decor is very wonderful and modern and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. there’s also a small refrigerator in the room. I would definitely stay there again.

Great little motel with quaint, newer decor perfect for the area. The staff was very friendly, the room was well-appointed, & the king mattress was very comfortable. It was quite convenient to all of Estes Park. The only negative was that the tile floor was dirty & hadn't been mopped recently because our socks & feet were nearly black on the bottom. Other than that, it was a terrific stay that we really enjoyed.

Wanted somewhere not too expensive in Estes Park, close to Rocky Mountain national park on a super busy weekend and found this motel. The rooms were super clean and comfortable with extra touches to feel homey, convenient location close to town, owner/ front desk person was friendly. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.

What a gem! We stayed in room 18, a king studio with kitchenette and patio. It seemed to be recently remodeled with a full size refrigerator, small cooktop, coffee maker, microwave and even basic dishes and pots and pans. There was a small counter against the wall with two stools for dining. The seating are and bed were both so comfortable! The patio had a table and chairs for my morning tea. We even had a rabbit visit in the early evening. Highly recommend!

Annual visit!
This is our second visit at the Columbine Inn. We have been very pleased both times. The room was cleaned everyday and stocked with fresh towels. We love the fact that the room has a microwave and refrigerator. We don't spend a lot of time in the room since we are out hiking and exploring the park, so the room is perfect for us. I also love the shampoo, conditioner, soap, and lotion!
