How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it. Read the reviews yourself on Google Maps.

We travelled to Colorado for Skiing and decided to spend a night at The Art Curio Hilton before heading to our ski resort. We booked a standard room through American Express Fine Hotel & Resorts program. But we were pleasantly surprised when we were upgraded to a much bigger suite. My daughter really loved the big bathroom and tub. The restaurant staff were really helpful. Special shout out to the front desk staff Emily and Drew for their courteous service. Overall we had a great short stay

Definitely got the impression this hotel is resting on its laurels. We were excited to try it out after reading the amazing reviews, but the property is looking very tired. Our room was missing a drain plug in the sink, and many surfaces were visibly scratched and scuffed. The restaurant, FIRE, was okay. The menu had no allergen markings and staff had mixed levels of awareness about protocols. Implementation of the AMEX FHR program is odd, with tips bizarrely not included in the property credit. Overall, a clean and comfortable hotel, but not up to its apparent reputation.

I highly recommend this hotel. I will start with check in. The staff member who assisted us, whose name I unfortunately forgot, was very informative and kind. I believe he is German. I would also like to thank Ernie for upgrading both of my rooms. That was awesome, and the view was very beautiful. The two rooms I booked were clean and comfortable. Overall, the service and the hotel deserve a 10/10 rating. The only minor issue was that the cold water in one room was coming out hot, but since we only stayed for one night, I chose not to call the front desk. If I come back, I will definitely stay here again.

I recently stayed here during a solo trip to Colorado and had a great experience overall. I did have a small hiccup with my luggage before leaving , but the hotel staff handled it well and helped resolve the situation, which I really appreciated. What truly stood out, though, was Jillian, the bartender. She was absolutely awesome, welcoming, kind, and genuinely made me feel comfortable as a solo traveler. Her personality, attentiveness, and positive energy made my stay feel less like a hotel visit and more like a place I could relax and enjoy. She’s the kind of person who leaves a lasting impression and represents the hotel so well. Thank you to the staff and especially Jillian for making my stay memorable. I would definitely return.
