Has an issue with booking this hotel with hotels.com, a bit confused with the down payment for the booking and later learned the booking fees wasn't processed. Other than that, this hotel is at the great location, next to the river and walking distance to supermarket and main street. The room is good size, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was great with 24/7 coffee machine.

This river view Holiday Inn location offered more than I had expected and was the perfect end to my wedding weekend :) The front desk staff are so kind and pleasant. Next the views on the wrap around patio are so beautiful and peaceful views of the animas river and mountains. We enjoyed sitting out with our doggy and wine listening to the river. The trail is steps away too. Plenty of yummy restaurants one block up onMain street. They offer free breakfast with costa rican coffee, gluten free bagels options, and even offered omlettes! The rooms were very clean and everything is updated. I will be back when we visit Durango again someday!

Good value! The hotel is in a good location, neat, the staff is very helpful, and the included breakfast was very satisfactory. Only thing was my original room was on the ground floor and had a door leading out onto a “patio” which was pretty much the front parking lot so I didn’t feel very secure. Maybe convenient for someone who had a car parked in the front. I was able to change rooms but the second one (239) had an odd odor (something like sewage) coming up from the shower drain.
