Hotels near Space Foundation Headquarters and Discovery Center, Colorado Springs

I have stayed at dozens of Best Western hotels around the world but this one is absolutely the best! I love the idea of using the breakfast area as a pizza buffet at night but we arrived too late to try it. The full bar in the lobby was also an unexpected treat. Every staff member that I interacted with was quite pleasant and helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable, even the shower was awesome. The electric vehicle charger added convenience to my stay, so I love that amenity. We will definitely stay in this hotel again when we make it back to Colorado Springs.

Front desk staff is terrific and friendly. There are really no bad views on all sides of the hotel if you're on a high floor. The pool was open and very clean nice workout area too. Concierge lounge open on very limited basis however good news they give you a coupon good for a wonderful breakfast buffet I had The Omelette it was good the team in this area are very friendly as well. The local shuttle staff is very accommodating very friendly and quick to respond I used them both nights in my state to go to local restaurants. Had a problem with the room on the first night they quickly put me into another room. Comfortable bed good TV good work area bathroom has walked in shower and was just fine. Almost forgot they have a nice lobby lounge with happy hour. Nice job Colorado springs Marriott team!

The hotel is close to the Air Force Academy, there are supermarkets and shopping malls opposite, and there is a lot of food nearby, and shopping is convenient. Traffic is also available, and it is very convenient to use the 25th highway. The hotel's breakfast is rich and free parking is recommended.

Very clean hotel and spacious/comfortable room that has many great amenities. Full kitchen with everything you need. Walkable to lots of restaurants, bars and the Olympic Museum. Also has a nice rooftop bar with great view (make a reservation it was very crowded even on a Monday night). We got four free beers (I think you can also choose wine?) and a small cheese plate during Happy Hour which is a very nice perk. Excellent staff! Our car broke down and we needed to come back after we had already checked out. They gave us access to our room and also were going to give me a discount on the rate if I needed to stay another night (hotel was very full that day and I had a special rate for my stay). I think the front desk employee who helped me was named Tevon? Thank you so much for being so kind and professional to help us during a very stressful situation. Well done and much appreciated!

A perfect hotel for our Special Olympics weekend. We got two rooms and even though they weren’t adjoining the front desk made sure they were across from each other. The pullout couch was really comfortable. Very clean and quiet. Nice shower. Couldn’t hear any noise from other rooms, and in a great location to walk to restaurants and a quick drive to other eateries and stores. Super close to the USAF Academy. We’d go back.

I'm a Marriott Elite Bonvoy member and a long time loyal guest at Marriott properties over the year. This is the single worst experience I have ever had at a Marriott property. 1. Staff was extremely sp****. More often than not, there was no one at the front desk while several guests looked around and called for someone. Sometimes, a person would appear. Other times, not. And sometimes the person who seemed to be on duty was instead sitting outside the hotel taking a smoking break. 2. One day I came down for breakfast right in the middle of the listed breakfast hours and there was no breakfast available. That same evening snacks and drinks were posted to be available until 10:00. When I arrived at the hotel in the evening at about 9:15 the bar area was dark. I asked about this and was told ”Oh, they closed early tonight”. 3. The blackout curtains in my room were ripped at the top with the pull bar ripped off. The lack of pull bar made them hard to close and the ripping made them ineffectual in the morning at sunrise. Having presented these negatives, there are two positives: 1. I like the fact that the TV didn't take over the room. In too many hotel rooms, TVs way too big for the room are provided. 2. I asked for and received late checkout (about 2 hours extension on checkout time).

The only real disappointment was the induction cooktop came with a tiny little skillet and was useless for more than an egg. And since there was a free breakfast there was no need to cook an egg. We did find grills outside - those should be mentioned on the website. Breakfast was pretty good - not great, but good. It was quite difficult to get the little omelets and sausages out of their heating unit. I would like English muffins rather than bagels. They should post in the laundry that it takes an extra quarter to wash a load on medium rather than light. A quarter is not much, but when one has gotten $5 of quarters and does not have an extra it is quite irritating. The staff at the front desk and serving the breakfast were all outstanding - pleasant and efficient.

There is a difference between a suite and a studio. The suite has a separate room. Studio is one room. Both have small kitchen and pull out sofa. In our studio we could use the cushions from the sofa as another extra bed on the floor! There was no oven - just a stove top. There is full fridge, freezer, microwave, some dishes, some utensils and a pot and pan. Indoor pool was nice and warm maybe about 88?. Hot tub was adjustable heat and beautiful with jets. Great view of Pikes Peak. Not noisy. There was a full shower in the pool area (no walls and in the pool area). Lots of choices for breakfast buffet - eggs, oatmeal, yogurt, cereal, juice, sausage, waffles.

Beware of staying at this Residence Inn, as my experience has been permanently marred. The staff here engages in collective dishonesty, tarnishing the reputation of the entire establishment. I arrived at the extended stay hotel at 3 am on Christmas Eve and had previously called to ensure a smooth check-in process. Management assured me that a late check-in was possible. However, upon arrival, the hotel was deserted, and security informed me that Judy, a staff member, was at the Fairfield Inn across the parking lot due to a system outage. After a confrontation with Judy, during which she charged my card without prior notice, the situation escalated. It's important to note that these charges occurred while I was stranded on top of a mountain in snowy conditions. Despite the system outage, she insisted on a $400 security deposit, citing policy. Resigned and exhausted at 3 am, I agreed to use a different card. After our argument, Judy agreed to let me stay if I walked back to the Fairfield Inn (2725 Geyser Drive) to ask the manager, Matthew, if that was okay. So, reluctantly, I did. After explaining and apologizing the manager gave me a room key for a room at the Fairfield just for the night. He said go get some sleep but the room he gave me wasn't ready. When my fiancé expressed displeasure about the room and Judy, Matthew, decided to escalate the situation by calling 911 and falsely claiming my fiancé alone was refusing to leave. He NEVER mentioned me in his report. The following day, discovering additional charges on my account, I returned to the Residence Inn. The woman working day shift IMMEDIATLY began treating me differently because of the night prior. She plastered on a fake smile and then made excuses for helping out 3 other people even though I was there first! Then, instead of helping she provided false information about holds on my account in order to stall me until the her boss showed up. I endured all of this only to discover that the entire night shift fabricated a report about us being violent and aggressive and refusing to leave. The day shift manager fixed the issue and then I left. This experience was a nightmarish sequence of lies and mistreatment. The evening shift staff, particularly Judy, Matthew, and their small security guard. Should reflect on their actions. This Marriott has proven to be the worst I've ever encountered. Potential guests, especially disabled veterans, should exercise caution and explore alternatives such as the LA Quinta Inn across the street. Beware of deceptive reviews; the staff at this establishment appears to be unified in dishonesty, even towards disabled veterans.
