The renovated Rochester Hotel, built in 1892, offers 15 unique rooms with high ceilings and private bathrooms. The Rochester Hotel is situated on a beautifully landscaped site, featuring a flower-filled courtyard. Rooms are decorated in Old West motif inspired by Western movies filmed in the Durango area. Movie posters framed in marquee lights line the hallways: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Around the World in Eighty Days, and City Slickers among them. The Rochester Hotel was designated as "The Flagship Hotel of Colorado" by Condé Nast Traveler in 1996.
The Leland House and Rochester Hotel are located in the heart of downtown Durango, one block off historic Main Avenue and just steps away from the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, museums, galleries, shops, restaurants and various outdoor activities. Mesa Verde National Park, Durango Mountain Resort and Trimble Spa & Natural Hot Springs are just a short drive away.
Both inns offer a complimentary gourmet breakfast served every morning in the lobby of the Rochester Hotel. Our breakfasts feature a daily hot entrée, an abundance of fresh fruit, homemade baked goods, muffins, scones, coffeecakes, and granola. Homemade cookies and tea are served every afternoon.
Guest parking is offered directly behind each building.
