Visit the lovely town of Antonito and get inspired by its vintage trains. This southern Colorado town is only 6 miles from New Mexico and features a few lovely hotels and unique abodes.

To enjoy your stay in Antonito, we curated the top inns and hotels for you to check out. Although small, the town boasts several historic accommodations and even a luxurious guest ranch, for those needing western recreation directly at their lodge. Because of its famous train, there are plenty of shops and restaurants in town to host the tourists.

Probably Antonito’s Top Hotel Accommodations

If you’re heading to Antonito, chances are high that you’re looking to ride the historic Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. It connects Antonito with Chama, NM, via an incredible 64-mile rolling journey among the New Mexico/Colorado border. Book a night in Antonito and a night in Chama for the ultimate train ride getaway!

Nature is also extremely close. Just head west on Highway 17 for 20 minutes or so and you’ll reach the Rio Grande National Forest. Camp, go fishing, hiking, and ride your ATVs. You can do it all in your national forests. The highway also connects with Chama in New Mexico, a slightly different route than the Cumbres & Toltec train ride takes.
