The General Palmer is a small hotel on Main St in Durango. It was built in 1898, so the old building has some creeks and groans. The old elevator was a challenge, but manageable. Our room did not have a balcony, but there was a large deck accessable ftom the hallway. We were oriented so we could see the Durango- Silverton trains leave in the AM and return in the PM. If you're a late sleeper, request tge opposite side of the hotel. All the staff was friendly and informative. The complimentary breakfast was good. As you would expect, it was not exceptional but tasty and hot. We enjoyed being on Main St and quick access to the shops and restaurants.

Like stepping back in time in Victorian hotel with vintage decor. We were thrilled to arrive to warm chocolate chip cookies, and 24-hour coffee, tea, hot chocolate etc. We were in Presidential Suite that is comfortable, with sofa to watch TV, and has a Keurig. We had views of the quaint downtown, with shops and restaurants just steps away, and the adjoining train station. Good breakfast with waffle machine, eggs, fresh fruit etc but no oatmeal. The staff were nice and helpful.

Awesome convenient location. Staff were very helpful and would quickly clean your room. If you like the train station location, be ready to hear the “choo choo” that’s so iconic of old school trains. Great for photos

Historic hotel on Main Street Durango. Easy parking. Front Desk staff was great. Rooms furnished in period pieces. Nice 4-poster king bed. Be aware that the hotel is right next to the station of the Durango-Silverton Railroad Station. When the trains are arriving and leaving, the train whistles and noise is loud if your room faces the Station. Train activity starts around 7:00AM and ends around 10:00PM. Best Italian restaurant and French bakery in Durango are within steps from the hotel. Perfect location to ride the train or enjoy the downtown night life.

1. We like the parking. 2. The lack of telephone in the room and the property management was not aware there was not phone. 3. The lighting fixture was missing the chain for off/on in room 259. 4. The televisions in room 259 experienced inoperability that was annoying. 5. The lighting fixture in room 255 overhead was not fixable during our stay. The members of the staff were very willing and gracious.

Lovely Victorian Hotel with the charm and elegance of that period. Well maintained with up to date conveniences. Beautiful room! Great location! Love Durango and the Silverton-Durango train and the sound of the whistle… all contributing to make the visit very memorable and special! Could watch the train depart from our hotel room window!

Omg do not go to this property if you have luggage. There is no one to help and the elevator is nearly impossible. the other downside is there is no bar or restaurant. There is coffee and breakfast, but that is it. The positive it is cute and quaint, location is great.
