Bottom Line

The three-pearl Homewood Suites by Hilton Durango is located just outside of downtown Durango, though it's still close enough to the area's attractions. The hotel offers a free shuttle into town and to the train station, which is just a five-minute drive away. The 78 suites and studios are designed for long-term stays with full-equipped kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs, separate living and dining areas, and free Wi-Fi. Freebies include a daily extensive buffet breakfast and social evenings (Mondays to Thursdays) with free dinner and drinks. Guests staying for longer periods will appreciate the fitness center, basketball court, indoor swimming pool, whirlpool, and spa. For business travelers, there's a 24-hour business center and conference room. Travelers can also consider nearby DoubleTree by Hilton Durango, which has a serene riverfront location and full-service restaurant -- but higher rates.

Homewood Suites by Hilton Durango

Scene

Modern and well-maintained chain hotel with cozy interiors

Homewood Suites by Hilton Durango is a fairly new property with interiors that are modern and well-maintained. The low-ceiling lobby has a welcoming feel with a central lounge set with a large leather sofa and ottomans, unassuming reception desk, stone fireplace, free refreshments, and warm lighting with lots of wooden features. The breakfast area has an edgy contemporary feel with wooden beams on the walls and ceiling, dark wooden seating, combination of tiled and vinyl flooring, and mix of bar, table, and bench seating -- the buffet area is large with a modern kitchen design. Just off the breakfast area is the business center with a large wooden desk built into the wall with several cupboards, drawers, and bookshelf, accented by a large painting of a snow-capped mountain range. 

The social evenings bring a fun vibe to the hotel, and guests appreciate the free dinner and drinks. This hotel is particularly popular with business travelers year-round and with tourists during the summer months.
