  • Really enjoyed our stay at Mesa Verde Motel. Clean rooms, soft beds and great location. M bar was a highlight offering cocktails, beer, wine and coffee in a unique atmosphere. Matt greeted us on check in with a smile and was genuinely happy to host us. Definitely will stay again

  • The Mesa Verde Motel is a true hidden gem! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm hospitality that made us feel right at home. The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed with modern touches while still keeping that cozy, small-town charm. The location is perfect—close to the park and local restaurants, making it an ideal base for exploring the area. Make sure you visit Dotty Wampus Chocolate Factory! The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we loved the little extras that showed how much care the owners put into making their guests’ stays special. The on-site cafe/bar is awesome! If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, convenience, and personal touches, the Mesa Verde Motel is it. We will definitely be back and recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

  • This place is just fun. If you want to stay somewhere that the experience is memorable, stay here. We loved the many little "extra touches" in the decor, furnishings, and atmosphere plus it is super clean. I am in that area often but this is the first time I have stayed at Mesa Verde Motel. It is definitely my new "go to" place. If you are visiting Mesa Verde National Park, this Motel is perfect and the town of Mancos is a special place.

  • This motel is in a perfect location for visiting Mesa Verde National Park. The room was clean and decorated very nicely. The owners did a great job on renovations and were thoughtful in the amenities. The cocktail bar and coffee bar is a nice touch. We enjoyed both aspects of it.

  • We had the absolute best experience at Mesa Verde Motel! From the moment we checked in the staff was very friendly and helpful! The rooms was so comfortable and had so many thoughtful little touches! The artwork and detail around the whole place is so fun and we had the most comfortable bed and blankets! The coffee bar and cocktail bar right there were so delicious too, and another huge perk is that you can walk to various spots for dinner and are only a 9 minute drive to the entrance of Mesa Verde National Park! I would recommend this motel to everyone!!!

  • We have stayed at Mesa Verde Motel twice in the last year and both times it’s been great! The rooms are always very clean and have everything you need! The beds and pillows are super comfortable, and the decor is cute! Love the games and “hang out space” next to the cafe too! We will be back!

  • I did a lot of research on where to stay for our visit to Mesa Verde National Park and the very charming retro motel was one of the options. It was very close to the entrance of the park. I read some things about the owners, saw some charming photos and read nice reviews. It all worked out nicely for us. Being from the East Coast we were far from home and on a wonderful 10 day tour of Colorado. The Mesa Verde Motel worked out well and added to the charm of our big trip!

  • This was a wonderful motel that really surprised my wife and I. The co-owner, Sally, checked us in and she was a delight to meet and chat with. Each room has been nicely remodeled with cute touches. The room was fresh, clean, and adorned with great art touches and little sayings that made you smile (and in some cases, laugh!). After a long day at Mesa Verde National Park, this was a great resting place and well worth the money.

  • We stayed two nights at Mesa Verde Motel and I can’t say enough good things. It was honestly the best experience. It was clean and well equipped without losing the charm and convenience of a roadside motel. The onsite coffee shop was great for breakfast. We walked down to browse the shops downtown and ate dinner on the patio at Fenceline one evening. From location to decoration to convenience, this place was the best and we definitely would recommend it to others.
