They do haunted tours every night, to include a stop at room 217. If you're staying in room 217 you can have a LOT of fun with the tour groups when they gather outside the door ... >:)
Beautiful room in the lodge. Room service was delightful, the tour was fun, the bar has an extensive whiskey collection, the lunchwraps were delish. Highly recommended by me!
This was a bucket list adventure for me and the Stanley Hotel didn't disappoint! It is a gorgeous historical hotel and very haunted... Definitely give it a try or come for the ghost/ historical tour!
Went for the tour only. Emily was the tour guide. She was very funny and informative. The hotel is amazing to see. You can have a drink at the bar and go to the gift shop. Beautiful setting. 👍👍
Wind down with cocktails and dinner at the elegant 103-year-old, white-pillared landmark. Guided ghost tours reveal how Stephen King was inspired to write The Shining while staying in room 217.
NONE of stanley kubricks "the shining" was filmed at the Stanley Hotel! The exterior shots were filmed in Mt. Hood Oregon at the Timberline Lodge! The interior was filmed on a sound stage in London!
The infamous mountain retreat where Stephen King stayed one snowy autumn in 1974 and was inspired to write his novel The Shining. The hotel is regarded to be haunted.
Don’t buy into the hype. The tour may be entertaining but the hotel itself is poorly run and very poorly maintained. Estes Park is wonderful, but you can do WAY better when it comes to lodging.
not a single frame of film from"The Shining" was shot at the Stanley. The "Overlook"hotel is in Oregon. the"hedge"maze is in U.K and the long winding mtn.road as it begins is in "New Zealand". got it?
When checkin' in ask/hope that you get a room that faces Estes Park. The rooms that face the back of the hotel have the worse views and can get a bit noisy from the outdoor bar!
From The Shining, you can take a tour to learn all about the property’s own ghost stories. Or, take a spin through Estes Park on one of the hotel’santique fire engines. Read more
The rooms are beautiful! Been here more times than I can remember & have stayed 4 times! Also was there for 3 days for a ghost hunting event. Pleasant staff, delicious food, beautiful views! One of my
Go on the 'ghost and history tour' and get Tyler as your guide. He is excellent! He is informative, knowledgeable, funny, and makes sure to make sure everyone is having an great time!
Parts of Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining" and the comedy "Dumb & Dumber" were shot right here at The Stanley Hotel! Make sure you stay in a haunted room on the 4th floor.
LivingSocial often grants great deals on ghost tours and room rates at The Stanley! This is a legendary hotel, and a tour is a must if you're a Colorado resident!
NONE of Stanley Kubrick’s movie “The Shining” was shot here. Exteriors were in Ft. Hood, Oregon, and all interiors were on a sound stage in London. However, the King-produced TVmovie shot here.
Zak, Nick and Aaron get locked down in the Stanley Hotel, the house of horrors that inspired Stephen King's, "The Shining." As seen on Ghost Adventures. Read more
Take a walk around the hotel early in the morning before all the tours start. It makes the hotel seem less like a tourist trap and more like a classyhotel.
The Stanley Hotel is famous for its old world charm. Multiple renovations have restored this 140-room hotel to its original grandeur while offering over 14,000 square feet of sophisticated meeting and event space equipped with modern amenities.
