Colorado's grandest resort, The Broadmoor is a magnificent Spanish Renaissance palace at the foot of Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs. With three PGA championship golf courses, a world-class spa, and nine restaurants, this five-star resort is one of America's finest.
The Broadmoor stands as one of the most celebrated resort hotels in the United States, spreading across 5,000 acres at the foot of Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Opened in 1918, the resort's pink-hued Spanish Renaissance main building and surrounding structures have earned a Forbes Five-Star rating for more than six consecutive decades — a record unmatched by any other resort in the world. The property sits beside a private lake and encompasses three distinct accommodation wings — the Main Building, South Tower, and West Building — plus a collection of lake-view cottages and mountain-facing Cloud Camp cabins accessible only by four-wheel drive. Three PGA-rated championship golf courses wind through the resort's manicured grounds, and a world-class tennis program operates year-round. The Broadmoor Spa spans 60,000 square feet with mineral pools, eucalyptus steam rooms, and an extensive treatment menu. Nine restaurants and nine bars cater to every appetite, from the white-tablecloth elegance of the Penrose Room to casual poolside dining at the Beach House. Guests have access to five swimming pools, a bowling alley, movie theater, falconry school, and the 400-acre Broadmoor Soaring Adventure at Cheyenne Mountain. The resort is a 15-minute drive from Colorado Springs Airport and roughly 70 miles south of Denver. Horseback riding, zip-lining, and a nature center round out an activity roster that keeps families and couples occupied for days. The concierge team manages everything from private dining to Rocky Mountain National Park excursions.
