Four Colorado Hotels Recognized in Tripadvisor’s 2025 Traveler’s Choice Awards
Tripadvisor has unveiled its 2025 Traveler’s Choice Awards, and four standout hotels in Colorado have earned national recognition across a variety of categories. Although no Colorado properties made the overall “Best of the Best” list, several were honored for their excellence in luxury, family-friendliness, pet accommodations, and charming bed-and-breakfast experiences.
Tripadvisor notes that fewer than 1% of the more than 8 million listings on its platform receive “Best of the Best” status, making these recognitions particularly noteworthy.
Here’s a closer look at the Colorado hotels that made the list:
