I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Hotel Colorado. It’s a special place to my husband and I, and we were so thankful to have our wedding there. We worked with Alta who is the coordinator with the hotel and she was extremely kind and helpful.

Hotel Colorado has been my dream wedding location since I can remember. It’s a place I’ve grown up going to and even where I ended up getting proposed to. We weren’t sure if we could have an “actual” wedding, but with the help of Alta we were able to have the most beautiful boutique wedding. Everything felt so personalized to us.

Absolutely wonderful place to have a wedding! Sandy was so helpful and easy to work with, and all the staff went out of their way to make sure our entire weekend was perfect. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Hotel Colorado.

We could not be happier with how our wedding turned out. Kristen was wonderful to work with and they did everything in their power to make our day special. The food was amazing, the ballroom was beautiful and they were very accommodating the next morning allowing us to check out late so we could get everything in order. We look forward to staying there for our anniversaries.

I am more in love with the Hotel Colorado than I could have ever imagined after the unforgettable weekend we had there for our wedding! Megan Cooley was phenomenal in helping me through every step of the planning and truly went out of her way to make sure our wedding day was nothing short of perfect. We continue to receive compliments and exclamations from our friends and family about how amazing the whole experience was- for which we are forever grateful! I cannot recommend this venue enough for anyone looking for a true Colorado experience.

We had our wedding in the courtyard of the Hotel Colorado. The staff were extremely accommodating and willing to do whatever they could to help us make our day special. Kristen and Dillon were very easy to work with and communicated well about what needed to happen. I would definitely recommend them to future couples who want an outdoor wedding in a unique setting!

What a remarkable place for my friends daughter's wedding. The hotel was so opulent... almost as if we stepped back in time. A perfect Colorado wedding!
