Hotel overview

Colorado Grande Casino offers a blend of laid-back lodging and gaming excitement in the heart of Cripple Creek. The hotel’s upstairs rooms provide a cozy retreat with clean, comfortable accommodations that suit travelers looking for simplicity and charm over luxury. Downstairs, guests will find a selection of slot machines and poker tables, perfect for those eager to try their luck in an intimate casino setting.

Its location puts visitors within easy reach of Cripple Creek’s downtown attractions, including other casinos, dining spots, and historical sites. Though the building carries a classic vintage vibe, it remains welcoming with attentive staff noted for their friendliness and helpfulness.

Dining options on-site include Maggie’s, a popular American restaurant and bar praised for its atmosphere and attentive service. For a quick getaway or a longer stay, Colorado Grande Casino balances the allure of old-town character with a functional base for exploring nearby outdoor adventures.

“I got the standard queen room (#3) and it isn't super fancy. However it will meet the needs of any well-versed traveler. The room is VERY clean and the staff is exceptional, which is the reason I chose this place based on other reviews. The young lady with pink and blue hair at Maggie's restaurant was exceptional, I was very impressed. And the young man tendimg bar was equally attentive, and even remembered my preferred order after a couple of hours passed. I am very impressed with the staff, and the cleanliness, of this hotel and casino. I will absolutely be back!!”

“Very era themed hotel. Just a few rooms and relatively quiet with the casino downstairs. Well kept, clean, but old. Power outlets in short supply. Parking a bit difficult to navigate due to street design. Very friendly and helpful staff at all hours! Great place to stay for access to all downtown cripple Creek including other casinos, shopping, dining and the museum.”

“We came out for the night from the Denver area to celebrate our anniversary. This hotel was unique and fun to stay at, and overall, we had a great time. We slept well and even won some money! The rooms were clean; we did notice some street noise, but it wasn’t excessive. I gave 4 stars because, as mentioned in some other reviews, the service was slow. We waited over 10 minutes to check in and experienced delays every time we ordered drinks. On one occasion, we waited so long for a drink that we decided to leave and try another place. It didn’t seem like they needed more staff, just better awareness. All in all, we had a wonderful time and are very thankful we stayed here. The staff is very nice, and the machines pay out.”

“We stayed in a room upstairs for a couple nights. The rooms are very nice and clean. A much needed getaway to one of our go to places. We mostly gambled at Colorado Grand since we were staying there. It is a nice cozy place to stay. They have a nice covered patio area for smokers with heat lamps and an enclosed area that has a lovely fireplace to keep warm by. It still has the older Cripple Creek feel. I gave it 4 stars because some of the staff could really have better customer service skills in paying attention when someone is standing at the bar for more than 2 or 3 minutes or so when they know someone is standing there waiting at the bar during very low to no customer traffic time. It seemed to me they were more interested in doing their computer work.”
