I loved the aesthetics of the property; the furnishings were so comfortable and beautiful. The staff was very warm and welcoming. The valet parking was a plus. Even though there was an extra $15 per night, it was worth the convenience of not being concerned about getting a parking ticket on the street and the assurance of the car's safety in a garage. The restaurant's breakfast buffet was truly a delight and Tobey, our waitress was the absolute BEST. Such a relaxing way to start the day. We did try the evening meal in the restaurant and though the food was acceptable, the flavors were not as "gourmet" as we expected and did not wow us for the price. Our waiter, Ian, was a delight and very attentive. The alternative of having other restaurant options in the area within close walking distance kept this from being an issue. I will most definitely stay at The Cliff House if I ever find myself heading back to the Colorado Springs area.
