Staying at Glen Eyrie Castle in Colorado Springs 🏰✨

"When I drove up to the hotel, I was completely stunned! Earlier in the afternoon, I had taken a tour of the Garden of the Gods and actually passed by this place—but it didn’t even click that THIS was where I’d be staying tonight! 🤯" 🏰 Glen Eyrie Castle & Conference Center (A Ministry of The Navigators) This historic castle hotel is nestled in a breathtaking landscape, surrounded by towering red rock formations. The atmosphere is magical—like stepping into a fairy tale! 🏞️✨ Though I didn’t spend much time exploring the castle grounds (I was too excited and dashed back out for another drive through the Garden of the Gods 🚗💨), the setting alone was worth it. 💰 Price & Booking My stay was under $1,000 per night (a steal for such a unique experience!), but I’m guessing prices spike during peak seasons like summer break and holidays 📅🔥. Pro tip: Book early if you’re visiting in high-demand months! 🌅 Golden Hour Arrival I checked in around 7 PM—just in time for sunset. The way the fading sunlight painted the castle and the surrounding cliffs in golden hues was absolutely surreal. "Sunset at Glen Eyrie" should be on everyone’s bucket list! 🌄💛 ✨ Why Stay Here? ✔ One-of-a-kind historic charm – This isn’t your average hotel! ✔ Perfect location – Minutes from Garden of the Gods 🏜️ and downtown Colorado Springs. ✔ Stunning views – Wake up to red rock vistas and maybe even spot some wildlife! 🦌 📸 Best Photo Spots The castle courtyard (especially at golden hour!)
