Aurora Hotels & Accommodations

This week, the restaurant staff, especially David Kookie and Jessica Voh, waited on the 100+ customers each day they had breakfast here. Besides the fact they served so many people at once, my husband and I were amazed at the effectiveness they demonstrated. They prepared the breakfast area with polished silverware, fresh coffee, replenished serving bowls with fresh fruit, sustained clean tables while keeping attentiveness with coffee refills and table checking for each of them with positive and respectful attitudes. They deserve much credit along with the rest on on staff this past week keeping pace with such volume of customers while staying cheerful.

We held a meeting at the location during the last week in June. First, let me say that the staff were fantastic, but the facility was not. First, my room and several others smelled of cigarette smoke. The smell was so bad that my spouse noticed the odor on the clothes in my suitcase when I came home. Several other attendees notice mold in the bathrooms. The high speed internet in the meeting space, for which we paid did not work and could not be fixed. The bar was understaffed during the busy 5-7 pm period, resulting in waits of 15 minutes or longer just to order a beer.

We found a good rate here for 92.00 w tax. When we walked in hotel we were greeted by Quevette at the front desk. We did not have a reservation and she was most pleasant anyway. She made a special trip up to the 3rd floor to check to see if a room was ready. when she returned she explained just a 15 minute wait and we could ck-in as it was before the 3:00 pm check in time- We were very weary travelers on our way home from visiting Colorado Rockies, Grand Tetons Yellowstone Little Bighorn Memorial Park, Devils Tower, Deadwood, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Badlands, Wall drugs, and Hot Springs SD. We were tired. Quevette advised if the room was not satisfactory to let her know and she will arrange another room. The room was clean comfortable and next day we had free breakfast and off to the airport- Hotel is 20 - 30 minutes from airport ….Good place to stay but hotel could use some touch ups.

I usually dislike Fairfields very much, but this was a very short stay and I just picked something at the lowest price that wasnt too far from airport. The employees were extraordinarily friendly. The hotel offered coffee 24 hrs a day. Coffee was actually pretty good! :-) Free parking, quiet area. The room was fine. You could hear some noise from adjacent rooms upstairs and on the side, but not too bad. Absolutely no complaints, 5 star stay!

Excellent Services, Attention and compression since there was no problem in delivering time after Departure

We traveled and stayed at Gaylord Rockies since my husband had business meetings there. The hotel, like all Gaylords, is large with a central atrium. They are in an expansion phase, planning to add 1,000 additional rooms and more restaurants. We were upgraded to a suite but I can still speak to the comfort of the bed and the bathroom amenities. When traveling, I frequently have issues with the mattress being too firm. I am a side sleeper and if the mattress is hard, I get hip and shoulder pain by the third night. That did not happen. But I should have asked for a pillow with more loft since the provided pillows basically become flat. The shower had adequate pressure. For dining, there is a Marketplace that has grab and go breakfast and lunch sandwiches, pastries, bottled sodas, water, wine and beer and, of course, Starbucks coffee. All the restaurants – Sports bar, Monte Jade (Asian, limited sushi) and Vista Montagne (Italian) were all really good and for Gaylord, reasonably priced. We did not dine in Old Hickory Steakhouse, a Gaylord staple, since the price is exorbitant. A big draw for this hotel is the indoor and outdoor pools which are both heated and open year round. Even with the outdoor temp at 48 degrees there were people floating around the lazy river! Beware the weekends when locals book rooms for kids birthday parties. There is no shuttle available from the airport (at most a 15 minute ride) but the shuttle does take you to the nearby light rail station where you can get to downtown Denver or the airport. We paid $6 for a regional day pass so it was cheaper than Uber. This is the fourth Gaylord I have stayed in. The layout is more similar to Gaylord National near DC rather than Gaylord Palms (Orlando) or Gaylord Texas (Dallas area.) Like Texas and Orlando, you cannot walk to offsite restaurants which may be a consideration if you are not on a group trip nor have a car. Also, Gaylord Rockies is on the east side of Denver between the city and the airport. Driving to Rocky Mountain National Park takes roughly two (2) hours. You can get to Red Rocks Amphitheater, Dinosaur Ridge, Garden of the Gods, (see separate reviews), Boulder, Colorado Springs, etc in 1 to 1 ½ hours. Yes, it is a nice property but depending on why you are in the Denver area, may not be the right place for you.

Me and my husband checked in on Thursday the 31st for a little getaway for a few days. The room itself was very nice. The attendees not at all. After we were finally able to check in we had to wait almost 5 mins for the only working elevator to take us to our floor. Not because it's a large hotel as it's only 5 floors but because it was extremely slow. My husband woke around 3 am and looked out the window to see that our truck was no longer there. Mind you we were not only under a light but also a working camera. When we went down to talk to the desk it took her a while to come out of the office and she rudely confirmed that our vehicle had been broken in to hot wired and stolen. She was annoyed by the fact that we reported it as and I quote it happens here all the time they will just drop it somewhere once the fuel is gone. She was in the office on her phone and not watching said monitors. Why have them if they are not going to watch them?? After almost 2 hours the cops came and again the attendee couldn't even call us down to meet them, the sheriff had to call us. That was the last time we were spoken to by the staff. The housekeeping staff would park there carts next to our room but we were never offered any service even though our booking was for 3 nights. The management never contacted us in regards to the theft. No one did. I will never be back here. We do plan on contacting corporate as we feel as though the hotel itself should have some sort of responsibility and also because it seems as though this is a regular occurrence here at this hotel.

The guy at the front desk was very nice and worried a lot for us about finding our passports. He is such a kind person. He stayed for four days and had breakfast. Parking is also free, which is very good. I will continue it next time.

Stayed there a few times. Great service and clean rooms as always.
