The only thing that I didn’t like was that they charged us parking which it wasn’t available and they charged me an extra fee without telling me and after I ask what it was they told me it was for if I wanted to use the hot tub which we only stayed for one night.

Oldest hotel in Durango and in a good location. However, this place is in need of serious room updating and should have better amenities for the price. The hollow doors are lame and the bathroom was uncomfortable, even though we are small people. Water pressure in the shower was terrible. The concept is awesome-- keeping the "wild west" vibe--but modernity should be considered, as well. I'm on vacation and I want to feel like I'm getting a 2025 vacation hotel experience, not 1925, which is around the time I'm guessing our room was fully remodeled.

It was a cool experience staying at the historic Strater hotel. Staff were very hospitable. We loved the coffee bar set up on each floor, free coffee, very nice amenity. Free parking was great also, especially for a hotel in the middle of downtown Durango. It was nice having the Diamond Belle Saloon and the grille restaurant onsite. Our only complaint was the bed matress was too soft and needs to be replaced. Overall, great stay!

Can’t change the temperature in the room yourself. Shower is very small, can barely turn around. Bars are good, restaurant is overpriced. It is close to the sights in Durango.

Staff was absolutely wonderful and went out of their way to help. The history and character of the building was fascinating and easy access to downtown and the train. Diamond Belle was awesome as was the piano player!!

Overall a well decorated Victorian style hotel. Plenty of historical things to see and read about. The Mahogany Restaurant could use more dining options and is a bit overpriced for what they offer.
