The Spotlight on The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs

Comfort Meets Convenience Near Colorado Springs Concert Venues

Modern and welcoming, The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs is a laid-back spot just 6 miles from the U.S. Air Force Academy and a short drive from local performance venues. With cozy rooms, a fun on-site bar and grill, and thoughtful amenities like free hot breakfast and pet-friendly options, this hotel delivers both comfort and value for music lovers exploring Colorado Springs.

Why Concert-goers love it

Thanks to its location in northern Colorado Springs, you're never far from popular concert venues and local nightlife. Late check-in at 4:00 PM means you can settle in before the show, and the 11:00 AM checkout gives you time to sleep off a late night. The atmosphere is relaxed, with a 24/7 front desk and staff who understand the needs of travelers coming and going at odd hours.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a casual base with fun hangout spots
  • Solo travelers catching that once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples making a romantic weekend out of a concert night
  • Fans who want quiet recovery time after the music ends
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want solid amenities

Food and Drink Options

On-site Falcon's Bar & Grill serves up fresh American eats in a casual setting. It's perfect for a pre-show meal or a late bite afterwards. The hotel includes a free hot breakfast with omelets and waffles—ideal after a night out. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the in-room microwave and fridge make midnight snacking easy. You’re also close to local restaurants and cafes around Chapel Hills Mall.

Nightlife Options

Falcon’s isn’t just for food—it’s a hub for hanging out. With daily Happy Hour specials, billiards, darts, and TVs streaming sports, it’s a chill place to unwind. Plus, you'll find several bars and lounges just a short drive away, making it easy to keep the night going long after the encore ends.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, comfy beds, and tasty breakfast. Reviews highlight the hotel’s great value, convenient location, and the laid-back vibe that makes it easy to relax after a show. Many mention enjoying the on-site bar and appreciating the pet-friendly rooms.

Areas for Improvement

While the vibe is cozy, some guests note that parts of the hotel could use minor updates. The layout can be a bit of a maze for first-timers, and it’s not right in the downtown core—but for the price and perks, most say it’s well worth it.

The Bottom Line

A friendly, affordable stay with a fun bar and great breakfast, The Academy Hotel Colorado Springs hits the right note for concert-goers in search of comfort, convenience, and casual charm.

Solid stay for a few...

Liked: Room was clean and spacious. Looked newly renovated; most room elements were in good repair. Parking was easy as was finding the location. Many food places nearby. Off a main road but quiet. My room overlooked the pool via an interior window but was still very quiet. Breakfast staff was absolutely incredible! Breakfast itself was solid with plentiful options including omelettes included in room rate.
Disliked: If you are on the second floor, there are no elevators and all vending and other facilities are on the first floor (ie ice maker, fitness center, etc.). Although the room was very cool and had very good air conditioning, the hallways and corridors were hot. I returned my second night of my reservation to my key not working requiring a follow up visit to the front desk. For some odd reason, housekeeping didn’t come through until close to 5 pm but it wasn’t that big a deal as I only stayed 2 nights. In room fridge did not work.
