"So glad we stayed at this hotel! In the heart of Durango with everything walking distance. The most friendly staff and just a complete game changing experience! Love the history!"
A verified traveler from OAK RIDGE stayed at Historic Strater Hotel
"If you stay in Durango, you can't find a better place than here. The value of your dollar alone is remarkable. The hotel is spotless. The free breakfast is beyond any other offering; it is, in fact, excellent. That aside, you want to stay here because of the staff. Phoebe is the GM, and you will love her friendliness. It is impossible not to love her. Leon is in charge of maintenance. Perhaps unusual to mention in a review as I never required any, but he always met me in the hallway with a smile and a friendly word. The entire front desk staff and housekeeping staff are infinitely lovely people who are always warm and friendly. I stayed for 15 nights and was sad to say goodbye—best value in Durango by a mile. "
