The General Palmer Hotel

The General Palmer Hotel

8/10 Good
"The General Palmer Hotel is a great place to stay while visiting Durango. All the downtown attractions are within walking distance. My room was clean and well furnished. The only improvement could be the breakfast. On offer were the usual things a regular motel on the interstate offers eggs, oatmeal, waffles, pastries etc. The quality of these items could be raised a notch to match the quality of the hotel. Thank you for a comfortable stay."
