The Best Hotels to Book in Fort Collins, Colorado
With a thriving music scene, famous local breweries, an Old Town bustling with restaurants and shops, and one of the state’s flagship universities – Colorado State – Fort Collins makes for the perfect getaway. Visitors can also find easy access to the peaks at Rocky Mountain National Park, and fly fishing or boating on the Poudre River. Elsewhere, fellow Front Range cities Denver and Boulder are just a short trip away. Here’s our pick of the best hotels in Fort Collins, bookable on Culture Trip.
Fort Collins Marriott
Chain Hotel
The sleek, polished Marriott will appeal to your inner minimalist, with understated design choices in spacious rooms that drink in the northern Colorado sunlight and invite a touch of the outdoors in. Abundant venue spaces, including an open-air event space that can seat up to 250, prime this hotel to host your next big event – and with dressing suites and a pergola, weddings fit well. Splash into the region’s only indoor-outdoor pool during your stay, and swing by the Copper Creek restaurant for classic choices like a burger and a couple scoops of ice cream for dessert.
Hilton Fort Collins
Hotel
Tastefully appointed rooms and suites at the Hilton Fort Collins hug the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, but are just 2mi (3.2km) from historic Old Town and half a mile (0.8km) from Colorado State University. The Hilton hits the basics – with an indoor pool, whirlpool, fitness center, business center, breakfast buffet, bar and grill that serves dinner, and a cafe that pours Starbucks coffee. The health-conscious can upgrade to a premium room that’s cleared the space of allergens and potential irritants with an air purifier, water filter and allergy-free bedding, capped off with the pleasures of a coconut water and aromatherapy pillow spray.
Courtyard by Marriott Fort Collins
Chain Hotel
Gleaming, maple-finished wood furnishings and red accents, plush bedding and comfortable work spaces invite settling into the Courtyard by Marriott. Stylish rooms with comfy beds come paired with ergonomic work spaces to log a few hours on the laptop. Cool off in the indoor pool, or fit in a workout between those brewery tours at the fitness center.
The Armstrong Hotel
Boutique Hotel, Hotel
This boutique Fort Collins hotel uniquely appoints each of its 54 rooms in quasi-rustic style with woven wall hangings, dark accent walls, plaid upholstery and lots of polished wood. The location in Old Town means you can borrow a bike from the hotel concierge and pedal the streets. At the hotel’s Ace Café, square off with a bloody mary and a smothered breakfast burrito to kick-start your day, or swing by later in the afternoon for flatbread and wine.

Chain Hotel
Located off I-25, this Fort Collins hotel has access up and down Colorado’s Front Range, and it’s close to Colorado State University as well as Horsetooth Mountain Open Space.

Cambria Hotel Fort Collins
Spa Hotel, Hotel
Whether you’re sinking into a pillow-top mattress or pulling a chair up at the in-room workspaces, the Cambria is set to keep you comfortable.
