The Stanley Hotel

My family and I stayed in room 330 last weekend (mid February) and had a great time up until we had to go to bed. The room was so uncomfortably hot that we propped both windows open the entire night in mid February and set the “thermostat “ to 52 degrees and the temperature remained at 85 the entire night. Clearly the thermostat is not actually controlling the heaters in the room or it is grossly malfunctioning. I had to open the hallway door several times throughout the night just to get a small cross breeze to drop the temperature a few degrees. I even went to the front desk at 2am to ask for a fan. They provided me a small space heater, and said use the fan portion of that which was highly insignificant to resolve the issue. This was far from our expectation of this prestigious 4 star hotel. Upon asking for a refund their Assistant Manager Lacey only offered 20% discount. Clearly they are lacking customer service as this was their best and final offer for what was the most uncomfortable experience in a hotel we have ever had. Wish we had better memories of our stay.

The Stanley Hotel is such a beautiful historic building. Walking through it is like walking back in time. The lobby, restaurant and bar are probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen, and the exterior of the building and grounds are maintained impeccably. But... I don't believe in the paranormal...I don't believe in ghosts or spirits... I will lay the facts out of my experience and let you decide... We were at the bar at around 11:00 pm, I believe it closes at 1:00 am. After a few drinks I had to use the bathroom so I went to the one in the basement to use the men's room. There was nobody in the basement but one or two employees milling around who were quickly out of sight. As I walked into the men's room which was fully empty, I got this gut feeling of uneasiness. I chalked it up to having a few drinks and falling for the folklore of the hotel. As I stood in the men's room I felt burning on the left side of my neck. I ran to the mirror and saw four deep scratch marks. I didn't scratch my neck. I believe in science and facts and have been racking my brain trying to find a scientific explanation for this. I have physical photograph proof. I quickly googled the hotels history and read about a "Big Mountain Jim" that allegedly roamed the halls. I remembered back to being at another restaurant earlier on the day, The Bird and Jim. I had a "Big Mountain Jim" burger there. Paranormal? A strange set of coincidences? You tell me.

One of the best trips ive done yet had a great experience with the fam and got some good pictures there was some moments i got light headed but it went away i mean i caught a face in lucys room you would be scared too😓 great time great trip if u ever need a idea in colorado just a lil pricey😐

Great , the silent hill hotel , i love to stay in this magical structure , me and my family had a great time there , about the receptionist we were not very happy. But Maybe she were just in bad mood that day , but for the rest , it was pretty magical , loved it

Great for history and paranormal interest. Otherwise rooms are not worth the money. Customer service is poor if you have an issue. Watch out for any activity you book, it could be canceled at the last minute. We planned our trip around the Hannibal Seance, spent many $’s on room and dinner and @ 6pm it was canceled !!! The Stanley offered to refund 10% of the too . Really?
