I live in Estes and can see the Stanley from my cabin. I stay there every now and then. It's a nice little getawayeven though it's across the street. I have breakfast in bed after running home to let the cat out! There are lots of stories about hauntings. There is supposed to be a little boy that is up in the tower.

I live in Estes and can see the Stanley from my cabin. I stay there every now and then. It's a nice little getawayeven though it's across the street. I have breakfast in bed after running home to let the cat out! There are lots of stories about hauntings. There is supposed to be a little boy that is up in the tower. Most everytime I drive by I look into the tower. The Ghost Hunters shows that were filmed there were fun but I think they were hoaxed. There are lots of tunnels under the hotel and they could have fooled the crews easily. I tried to let GH know about these but never got through. Great old hotel. Take the tour if you come to Estes and have a cup of tea on the big front porch!

My husband and I stayed at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park in the famous Room 217. The staff had fun playing pranks on us and we had a great time. This is still my favorite vacation spot ever. Great atmosphere good food beautiful scenery. TV version of The Shining filmed here and was the hotel interior and exterior for most of it. Very exciting.... More

The Stanley Hotel is the first hotel I worked in 1969 been in the hotel business 35 years.
It wasn't haunted then lived in the Manor House which is the smaller building on the right of the Stanley. Have been back numerous times since and can't hardly go to Colorado without going to Estes and getting some salt water taffy. Had one of my first "summer romances" there and have never fortgot her and still wonder what ever happened to her.... More
