I've been to Cortez on business several times in the past five years and this has always been the place. And each time, it has been a great stay. Location-wise, it's a great jumping off point if you're going to do Mesa Verde, Four Corners and many of the other nearby sites. It's honestly not a bad place even if... More

This Holiday Inn Express was the best one we ever stayed at. The front desk were extremely friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was done just right and the two ladies taking care of it made you feel like you went home to moms. The location was great, especailly close to restaurants and gas stations. If we are ever in... More

A great hotel and a great place for families. We stayed in the kids suite and our kids loved the 2 sets of bunk beds in their "fort". The local decor of the hotel is something more hotels should model after.

This was an above average hotel with a great view of the mountains. The rooms were clean for the most part....except the throw blanket on one of our beds which had food or something encrusted on it. Nice indoor pool and hot tub enclosed on three sides with glass for viewing the scenery. Breakfast was the standard holiday inn stuff... More

Cortez was not the highlight of our 3 week road trip. The only reason we stayed in this hotel was because it was close to Mesa Verde,a place I have always wanted to see, and Durango. When we arrived, we found it to be a very lovely property. When we opened the door to our room, it STUNK of cigarette... More

SedonaSoul1553!! What a bummer! When we became a 100% non-smoking & 100% Pet-Free, we knew it would be hard to prevent people from smoking in our now “smoke free” property. The only way we have been able to fix this is to charge anyone who smokes in one of our rooms $150.00. It is part of what all guests sign... More

We recently spent two nights at the Holiday Inn Express in Cortez, CO. The facility is very well maintained with the friendliest staff.

This was a great stay, with a reasonable price. The amenities are wonderful, the free breakfasts are great, lots of food and variety. The only thing that was average I would say was the cleanliness of the pool. But we were staying at a time when the hotel was packed, and a ton of people had already used the pool... More

This is the nicest Holiday Inn Express we have ever stayed in! Very friendly and helpful staff (Galen and Dana) during our entire stay. Beautiful décor throughout. Lots of good choices for breakfast. Great location - just a few miles from Mesa Verde National Park. Would definitely stay here again. Nancy and Dick H.

The Holiday Inn in Cortez was a great place to stay. VERY clean, pleasant staff, free breakfast, free bottles of water, close proximity to Mesa Verde and the Four Corners. A very good overall experience. (we had a little issue with the wifi at first, but got it worked out)
