The Broadmoor
A grand stay, a quieter pace
Colorado Springs gives The Broadmoor an unusually dramatic backdrop for a restorative hotel stay. This is a landmark luxury resort, not a purpose-built meditation retreat, so visitors should think of reflection as something to weave into a broader visit rather than expect a set contemplative program. The Rocky Mountain scenery, with Pikes Peak and Seven Falls nearby, gives outdoor time and quiet pauses a memorable frame. A century-long history and five-star character make the experience more about comfort and a sense of occasion than retreat-house simplicity. The resort has activities that may complement a change of pace, but specific meditation sessions, schedules and retreat inclusions should be confirmed before booking. The stay is paid, and the official website is the best place to check current rooms, activities and reservation details. For travelers drawn to nature and hotel comforts, it can be an appealing base for stepping away from routine, provided they do not assume a formal meditation itinerary.

Accommodation
Lodging is within the historic hotel. Room types, rates and what is included can be checked through The Broadmoor's official website.
What to bring
