This boutique hotel in Fort Collins is one of the three historic hotels ever to be built in the area. Although it was the last one to open, it’s the only one still open today.

The hotel first opened in 1923 and was advertised by owners at that time, Charles and Carolyn Mantz, as the “ideal location” to stay for tours of the Rocky Mountain National Park and Poudre Canyon.

When it first opened, The Armstrong Hotel was the tallest building in town and boasted two elegant dining halls and 41 guest rooms. After years of transitions and owners, the Armstrong Hotel still stands today as a historic piece of Fort Collins’ history.

In another nod to history, The Armstrong Hotel is home to an underground jazz lounge called Ace Gillett’s, which celebrates a bygone era of exquisite service, timeless style, classic cocktails, and expert cuisine. Ace’s was named after a passionate businessman who was involved with many other hospitality ventures, in addition to owning and operating the Armstrong Hotel for decades.
