10/10 Exceptional

This was a lovely hotel. The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable and it was nicely decorated. The restaurant/bar had a tasty menu and a full bar. We would definitely recommend.

Stan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Modern, walkable location in Estes Park for our first time there. Able to get to the main street, Lake Estes trail, and Aerial Tramway easily by foot or car. Loved the open lobby area, spacious cafe and bar, fire pit, hammocks, and heated pool amenities! The Chromecast TV was also a great plus for nighttime.

Clean room and nice shower. Plenty of parking and easy to walk to everything. Tip for light sleepers: The light from mini split A/C unit was awful, bright blue and right above the headboard so bring an eye mask.
2-night trip

6/10 Good

It was just ok

We found the Trailborn a little rough around the edges, without any comfortable place to sit in our room. We couldn't change the temperature. I'm sure a phone call to the desk would have resolved it, but we wanted to get to bed. Too cold for a shower, so after a good nights sleep we headed out early.
George, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

They need more parking or separate parking area for people just there for the cafe. Other than that this place is great, super cute and clean. Would stay again!

6/10 Good

The 1st is very noisy. We were constantly woke by the sound from upstairs. I do like the location of the hotel, minimalist design, but the sound proofing is an issue. If we stay here again, will ask for the second floor.
Yi, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The exterior of property walkways had bird dropping all over the place. The rooms were very expensive for the quality. No mountain views and the noise from the room above suggested very poor insulation.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great interior and exterior design. Many amenities for a small hotel, very clean and wonderful staff.
Noreen, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Attended a wedding this weekend. Trailborn is centrally located, and has a night staffer who was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Free nut snacks available at the front desk at both Trailborn locations. Our room needed the door to be better sealed in order to minimize gnats in the room and other insects from coming through the door openings. Room floor also wasn’t cleaned prior to our arrival. Slippers or socks are a must to be worn in the room but beware, they will be black from the unclean floor. There are thin walls so you will hear your neighbors. Overall, was a decent stay.
Sylvia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was great, small but clean and comfy. When they cleaned the room they did not leave enough towels/no extra Kleenex ( so we ran out) . Small details that make the stay much nicer. Overall very good rating!
Rebecca, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice property overall, but the air conditioning did not work and when I called the front desk she said it was too late to adjust as it had to be done with all the rooms on the same floor?! Also our door was super loud and heavy - every time we opened or left it was make a ridiculous sound slamming.
Carla, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Stay else where.

The staff was hard to find for the front desk. The room was spacious but the bed was uncomfortable, the description for the pets is incorrect. Lots of weeks. Floors in the room were swept but not mopped. The walls are thin. They don’t have an area for pets to be off leash, don’t provide pet bowls. The outside had trash and other debris. The fire pit was nice but had nothing but weeds around the outside of the chairs. I would not stay here again.

8/10 Very good

This property was a freshly renovated older lodge/motel with new finishes. The finishes were sleek and efficient. It was somewhat clean. There were some small insects, in our bathroom window area. The bed was comfortable. A very social environment offering s’mores / fire pit in the evenings and areas to congregate. If you’re looking for deep rest, this probably isn’t the place for you. Noise was an issue at night, you could hear people walking around on the decking outside of the room, hear guests talking next door and many ambulance sirens due to the location. However, this is still a great option if you’re visiting Estes Park or Rocky Mountain National Park. The main areas of this hotel also had a very outdoorsy aesthetic.
Amanda, 1-night trip

Terrible. Room had no ac. Hard to get a hold of staff. Will not stay here ever again. I do not recommend.

This is a very cute, simply done, remodel of an old motel. Comfortable with easy access to walk into town. We will be back for sure!

Dale, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Trailborn is the rebirth of mid-century classic style updated to modern expectations. The property and rooms were immaculate, the staff is super friendly and helpful. It caters to those seeking a comfortable base camp for adventures in the Rockies and in town My wife and I imagined the lobby 70 years ago was filled with people in flannel shirts and khakis planning their day hikes in Rocky Mountain National Park. Today, its a fun mix of families and couples seeking some much needed connection with nature. Gripes are few. Shower water pressure could be better but it’s a minor complaint. Food and drinks were great and there are plenty of places to hang out on the patio to relax after a day of hiking, sight seeing, dining, and shopping.
