The 5 Best Hotels Near Pikes Peak

Pikes Peak is the highest summit within the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains and the 13.5-mile uphill hike is a popular challenge. Located just 12 miles west of Colorado Springs, it is possible to get the best of both worlds with days spent in the great outdoors and evenings dining and drinking in one of the city's hotspots. However, if you prefer a remote hideaway, there are plenty of good options for that too.
