Colorado resort fees, city by city.
As of Oct 21, 2026, we have looked up 154 hotels in 4 Colorado cities: on their own websites, 17 state a mandatory resort or destination fee, 3 state they charge none, and 134 could not be confirmed either way. Among the 17 Colorado hotels that state a fee, the median is $30.00 a night, before any tax a hotel adds on top. The lowest is $18.00, at Warwick Denver (Denver); the highest is $60.00, at Hotel Jerome, Auberge Collection (Aspen). These are the hotels we read in the cities we read, not every hotel in Colorado.
Every figure on this page is a hotel's own website, read on the date its city page shows and linked from there. A hotel we could not confirm is counted as unconfirmed, never as charging nothing.
