The Broadmoor
Classic luxury at the edge of the Rockies
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

You’ll never be bored at Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star The Broadmoor,
with its main campus located on 5,000 acres in Colorado
Springs. The resort offers tons of activities for its guests, including
falconry, pickleball,
zip lining, world-class golf, paddle boating, swimming, tennis, fly fishing and
there’s even an onsite movie theater. Families will love Play at The
Broadmoor, which offers six lanes of bowling and a menu that offers choices for everyone.
There is excellent hiking nearby — The Broadmoor Seven Falls is a must-visit, as is the famed Garden of the Gods red rock formations — and the luxurious Colorado hotel is also within a few miles of the funky, small art town of Manitou Springs. Located here is the Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway offering an unforgettable way to experience America’s Mountain during every season. There is also the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, originally created by The Broadmoor's founder, Spencer Penrose, a few minutes away by complimentary shuttle.
During your stay, you’ll learn little tidbits of the hotel's early 20th-century history. For example, when you walk into the original Broadmoor Main building, you'll find an extensive 1,000-bottle collection of Prohibition-era wine and spirits (part of Penrose's personal collection) encased in glass along the walls — a unique display dubbed "Bottle Alley."
