My husband and I stayed at the Colcord the night of the Michael Buble concert. The problems started before we even arrived. The night before our stay I called to confirm the type of room and rate I had requested months before. When the woman answered the phone she was talking extremely fast and cut me off mid sentence "thinking" she was answering my question... she wasn't. Had she waited for me to finish my question, I wouldn't have had to repeat myself. She was rude.

Upon checking in the rudeness continued from the same blonde I spoke with on the phone. She informed me that the vallet service was "busy" and may not help my husband and I. Thank you very much. She also informed us about the Restaurant Soliel yet neglected to inform us they had NO available tables for the evening. When I called down to the front desk to ask about breakfast in the morning, you know the one that comes with your stay... she told me it was until 11:00 am... it wasn't thought. It was until 8:30. Once again, thank you for your "help"

They neglected to provide turn down service, I could go on. The room was nice but the situations left such a taste in my mouth. I will never return. I plan to try the Skirvin next time...

I stayed at the Colcord Hotel for a one night, two day meeting. There is a history with the Colcord that gives it some character. The high rise building was a hotel many years ago, set vacant for an extended period of time, and then remodeled to become the Colcord. As a result of the age of this building it doesn't have the overall space one would expect for a hotel of the Colcord's class. It is a fine property that has an excellent staff. The rooms are futuristic in style. All have a flat screen television and beds that don't have a box spring. The shower/bathtub is one that has a permanent half glass for the door, so you have to stand toward the front of area. The floor was wet following my shower as there is no way to close the door on the remaining half of the exposed tub. Make note of the parking is in the rear of the hotel. They do offer valet, but it is also in the back of the hotel. My only complaint of the Colcord is the complimentary wireless internet. It is available, and my computer did find the signal, but the strength was extremely poor. I never had a signal higher than 22%. I would stay here again. There is a small exercise facility and on site restaurant that provides room service.

Oklahoma City may not be known for being the center of sleekness and style--at least that's the word I heard from some of the down-to-earth locals with whom I spoke--but the Colcord Hotel exudes just that.

The rooms are spacious and sophisticated; and unlike other hotels that may have a wonderful history but are showing their age, everything but the building is brand new.

Rates may seem a bit pricey, but it's worth the $50-75 extra dollars over the McMarriotts to have a memorable experience. For dining and nightlife, Bricktown is very close. Parking is on-site and reasonable.

OK, things are getting better. For less money I would recommend the Skirvin or the Marriott properties downtown.
