Overall Ratings & Reviews The Rochester Hotel

Location is great, staff are wonderful.

10/10 would recommend!!!

Very Comfortable

Best hotel I’ve been to in years. I didn’t want to get out of bed

Too hot in the room. No AC

Very loud property. It’s an old building that has been nicely renovated but the walls are so thin. And the floor above you can hear everything! Any footsteps and movement.

We stayed here the final two nights of a nine-night trip. All the other places we stayed were great, but the Rochester was the best! It is conveniently located in downtown Durango and has a fantastic outdoor garden area to enjoy fresh air while enjoying a drink from their bar. The rooms and beds are very comfortable. The service from the staff was top-notch. We took the train from Durango to Silverton and visited their sister hotel--The Wyman. If you go to Silverton, pay them a visit and grab a coffee or a libation in their lobby bar. Both hotels are very nicely decorated and they make you feel very welcome!

I absolutely loved my stay at the Rochester Hotel in Durango. The charm of the property, the warm and welcoming staff, and the overall comfort made it an unforgettable experience. The hotel has such a unique character—it’s stylish, cozy, and perfectly maintained. What really stood out to me was how pet-friendly they are. Traveling with my dogs can be hit or miss, but the Rochester made it seamless. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the outdoor areas were perfect for a quick walk. The location is also unbeatable—just a short stroll to restaurants, shops, and trails, but tucked away enough to feel peaceful and quiet. From check-in to check-out, everything was smooth, and every team member I encountered was helpful and kind. Highly recommend this gem in Durango. I’ll definitely be back!

The staff was incredibly warm and welcoming! The hotel is stunning, the rooms gorgeous, and the amenities luxurious. Ideal location just off of Main Ave, great vibes in the courtyard garden bar. Highly recommend!

Staff was friendly, rooms were very clean and comfortable. Great location!

Beautifully renovated. Very comfortable room and friendly staff.

Great property and very accommodating staff. Only complaint is the coffee in the room was instant.

Stevie and her coworker were very helpful and pleasant. I’m definitely staying here again.

This is the cutest quaint little gem in Durango. The family friendly feel, cleanliness and little bar are amazing! Will definitely be staying again!

Pretty small rooms for the price.

Wonderful

Great location, friendly staff! Beautiful rooms.

So nice to stay in an intimate, cosy hotel instead of the bland chains. High quality linens, warm friendly service, everything we needed and nothing we didn't. I would stay here again.

This hotel was fabulous in every way! It was small and cozy which was nice not having the chain hotel feel. The texting checking feature was great and the host was extremely responsive. They even came by our room as we were arriving to ask if we were getting in ok. The rooms were SO clean and beautifully designed. The bar gives you one free drink a night which we enjoyed in the cute courtyard with twinkle lights. The area is also great and within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, and the Durango train station. Loved our stay!

The overall stay was great! This was the first digital check in that I have ever done and made getting in a breeze. The only complaint would be the limited parking, but the staff made sure to help ensure we found parking. Definitely a unique hotel experience and would recommend to couples of all ages.
