My wife and I have stayed here twice in recent years. Scenic location, and a charming old hotel. The cable channel showing "The Shining" 24-7 is a nice touch.

The wife and I went to the Stanley after many years of her asking to make a getaway there. It was fabulous! The facilities are amazing in character and in accommodations. The staff were always pleasant, helpful and attentive. Overall, a great weekend away. More

We arrived on a Friday at 3pm and were able to check in right away. We had dinner reservations at the Cascades Restaurant at 6pm so we spent... More

We were given an overnight stay as a Christmas gift from our daughters. We just got back today, Jan. 29, 2012. We checked in around 4:00 p.m. yesterday. We were given room 408 to stay in.
