The hotel and staff were very nice. Wonderful views from our balconies. Unfortunately, most of Mesa Verde park was closed due to the government shutdown.we had stayed at the Grand Canyon a few days earlier and everything was business as usual. I even got an email from the Grand Canyon before our arrival saying they were open, but some services might not be available due to the shutdown - we didn’t notice anything not available. It would’ve been nice if we had been notified of the closures at Mesa Verde in advance. We were able to drive to one area and see on of the Spruce Tree cliff dwelling in the near distance. But all the roads and trails were closed to everything else, including the museum and visitor center. The hotel and restaurants are run by private companies and were open and very nice!

Bed was not clean. Room was adequate but nothing special. Dining was excellent - highly recommended. Breakfast was expensive & not included in price. Park was closed during our stay which was unfortunate.

Hard to say. The administration forced parks to stay open in the shutdown without requiring access to attractions. So the Far View Lodge stayed open, but the Park did not give access to the ruins. Why drive for hours only to stay at the Hotel without being able to see Cliff Palace and Balcony House.

We stayed at Far View Lodge 3 days into the government shutdown. The park was 90% closed, so the great location in the park wasn't really an advantage. We had an excellent dinner in the restaurant (thank you to Laramie & Julian), but the breakfast buffet was ordinary and overpriced (and a quarter mile from the lodge) and the other employees seemed disinterested in being there, and were neither friendly nor very helpful. DONT believe their "full services available" claim. The lounge was closed, the main dining served only dinner, and we got zero housekeeping during our stay. All in all, a disappointment, and certainly so at the price. Maybe they'd be better under normal circumstances, but... I just don't have much confidence .

Stunning spot, sunrises and sunsets. Great ancient sites though staff did not mention some we came to see were closing day after we arrived.
