Meet Motel Durango

Your Budget Basecamp

Motel Durango delivers convenient access to Durango’s signature activities, including skiing (with 3 ski areas within an easy drive), mountain bike and urban trails, Animas River put-ins, the renowned Colorado Trail, and vintage Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad – all located less than a mile from Durango’s historic downtown.

Our medium-sized hotel delivers simple accommodations while being steps away from meaningful connection points to nature, tourism, and our local community. We are a place for adventurers of all kinds, from town trail explorers to mountaintop summiters and everything in between.
