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.

Very nice hotel

Liked: Hotel was very pretty! Room was nice and clean. Breakfast was awesome! The chef at the omelette bar was very nice!
Disliked: They should have told us the elevator was down on the web site. I would not have stayed there if we would have known. We have a baby with a stroller. There was no way to get it up. We had to get our stuff up to the 3rd floor boy was that hard!

I was there man!

Liked: The staff was great and very detailed at check-in. They have lots of amenities. I was able to check in early. Lots of open parking available. Great view of the mountains. Thick window shades were nice as the setting sun would have burned up the room.Also, the a/c was good and cool.
Disliked: Broken elevator, it wasn't fun carrying my cooler up a flight of stairs, but it was clearly being worked on, not a huge deal. The bathroom was updated and very nice, other than the toilet seat which looked like it hasn't been changed since WW1. It was all very clean but with that many scratches and discoloration it takes away from the other great updates they had done. The bed was ok, not the best but my back didn't hurt when I woke up like other hotels.

Liked: The buffet breakfast is always great. The variety of items,omelets,waffles and other choices even delicious oatmeal. Other hotels just have instant oatmeal that you make yourself. Hotel waitstaff is always alert and ready to assist. Dinner could have more choices on the menu.The breakfast waitstaff exceeds all expectations . Bedding is like new,never worn.
Disliked: Dinner menu. More light in the pool area.
