Three Perfect Days for Families at The Broadmoor
The stress of work, school, and the holidays can be a sign that it's time for you and your family to take a holiday getaway, and The BROADMOOR is the place to do it.
Sometimes, even the smallest things can create a lifetime impression, and at The BROADMOOR, we know how to help. Here are suggestions from The BROADMOOR Concierge that will help you on your way to a BROADMOOR family getaway...
Day One: Getting Acquainted
Breakfast in Bed. It's your first day of relaxation so stay in bed as long as you'd like. Order room service with your family in your PJ's. You deserve it!
Start to Relax. The Spa at The BROADMOOR offers a variety of specialty body treatments designed to complement each individual's needs, including services designed especially for men, children, teens, and tweens.
Get Wet. The Spa Pool is open indoors year-round. Next to the Spa Pool and overlooking the golf course is an outdoor whirlpool spa and 2-lane, year-round outdoor heated lap pool.
Visit the Carriage Museum. Located across the street from the hotel in Broadmoor Hall is an amazing, and free, museum that houses an incredible array of historic carriages, cars and American memorabilia belonging to Broadmoor founders Spencer and Julie Penrose. It's a must-see for everyone and tours are free, too! Open daily.
Family-Friendly Dining. Enjoy dinner at the Tavern with a variety of prime steaks and fish. The kids' menu offers everything from spaghetti to brick oven-baked pizza, hamburgers and even junior prime rib. make sure to ask your server about the Tavern's history, too!
Day Two: Outdoor Adventures
A hearty breakfast at the Lake Terrace Dining Room is a perfect way to start your day of adventure with your family. If it's Sunday, you can experience Sunday Brunch, voted by the Travel Channel as one of the best in the country!
You're at the Top of the World on the Cog Railway. Running year-round and located just 15 minutes away in Manitou Springs is the Pikes Peak Cog Railway. This trip takes you to the 14,000-foot summit of "America's Mountain," where you can experience some of the grandest views around, and also try the High Altitude Doughnuts!
Spare Change? Manitou Springs has one of the greatest family activities around: an original penny arcade. From games dating back to the 1920s to the most modern of video games, the Manitou Arcade offers hours of family fun!
One More Summit - this one is for dinner. Take the family to Summit. Located in BROADMOOR Hall near the Carriage Museum, an early dinner at this American brasserie is fun for the taste buds, as well as for the eyes.
Day Three: As You Like It
Breakfast at Charles Court. Start your last day by enjoying a buffet breakfast or order off the menu at one of The Broadmoor's award-winning restaurants.
Get up close and personal with the giraffes at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo! America's "highest" zoo, at 6,800 feet on 50 acres, with more than 700 diverse and exotic creatures. Breathtaking views of the city from the Shrine of the Sun monument above the zoo (weather permitting). Take a hotel shuttle for free!
Have a Laid-Back Dinner. The Golf Club Dining Room is a terrific option for a casual dining experience. It is a family-friendly restaurant with an outdoor firepit, and you can even make s'mores!
