Overall Score5.0/ 5
We had an excellent stay at the Academy Hotel. The service was second to none. Everyone from the front desk to the Falcon Bar and Grill to the breakfast crew to the housekeeping crew was so friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and very comfortable. I highly recommend the Academy Hotel when in Colorado Springs!

"Best staff, cool time warp vibe."
Overall Score5.0/ 5
From desk clerks to dining staff and everyone in between, this hotel had the kindest and most welcoming staff. The interior is cozy and feels like a blast from the past with its "outside in" concept and plethora of beautiful plants. There is plenty of relaxing and hang out space perfect for group/team trips. The rooms are also generously furnished. The only imperfect thing was the water pressure, but that's a tiny hiccup.100% will stay here again.

"Great Place to Stay!!!"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
We have stayed here many times over the years. The breakfast omelets that are made to order are the best! The staff is always friendly. Had to change up our room choice this year needing a ground floor room with a walk-in shower. A very comfortable room. The large firepit lounge area is the best for meeting family and friends.
