Flying Horse Resort & Club
Gorgeous place! Food was delicious. Loved the spa. Had one iffy experience at smoothie bar. Played pickleball. Used the hot tub. Lovely room. Wished we had time to try all the restaurants. Raining the day we went, but next time we’ll golf.

The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs
The staff was great. Hotel is beautiful but rooms are a little outdated. Was very disappointed because the information regarding the hotel amenities were incorrect online and when we checked in the pool was already closed. Breakfast was good.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Colorado Springs
It will be nice once the renovation is complete. However, right now it's in a mess. Staff explained completely but still quite inconvenient. Especially the free drink area as the alcohol was a 3 at best. Once renovation is complete, I'm sure it will be nice.
