   Lovely, old-fashiod dinner in a white tablecloth environment with a musician playing classical music quietly on his guitar. Amazing food and knowledgeable staff. Fancier than the surrounding chill tourist town of Manitou Springs.

   Friday evening and should have known when there was only a total of 4 in the restaurant. Food was absolutely terrible and tasted like plastic. Cocktail was just as bad. Will never go back and I hope the food police show up and shut it down. Please take your date night somewhere else.

   We had an amazing meal at the Cliff House. Service was top notch, classic fine cuisine at a reasonable price. A large and affordable wine list. Space is quite pretty as well. The next time we’re in the area, we wouldn’t hesitate to eat here again.

   This was the first time that my wife and I had an opportunity to eat at this facility. The hotel is charming, warm and beautiful. Park across the street and be sure to pay for parking. Upon arrival, staff was very cordial and greeted us immediately. The food and service was excellent. It did take an extended period of time for us to get our food but once we did receive our food, the food was excellent. Niki our server was very engaging and we had a wonderful conversation with her. I would highly recommend taking the time to visit the hotel and have a wonderful lunch or supper. Look forward to returning thank you so much for your hospitality and wonderful experience. We did have the Reuben sandwich and french fries. Wine selection, limited but very good wines to choose from. The duck and Gnocchi appetizer was very good as well and would recommend it as a starter .

   For being the "cliff House" The very worst Prime Rib in my entire life! Though and the Aujus was more like Walmart gravy.

   We ordered the prime rib special medium rare. It was badly undercooked.

   Cliff House is second to none in our humble opinion. We have had the privilege of dining at Cliff House on several special occasions, and we are always overwhelmed by how wonderful our experience is. From the setting, to the ambiance, to the service, and overall food quality, Cliff House is truly special.

   Top experience at the Cliff House. This is a "Historic Hotels of America" place and it deserves it. Staff was excellant and very helpful. Valet was quick and responsive and didn't wait for a tip each time he brought up our car (good because we were in and out frequently). You can walk down to the main drag for shopping and eating. They had a nice breakfast spread. Our room was supburb if not a bit chilly (old building after all). I did find the extra heater on the last day. Fireplace was nice. We had dinner one night and that was great. Recommended.

    A nice old inn with a formal dining room. We were the only people in the restaurant for a late lunch. Service was ok, but not exceptional, especially considering we were the only customers. The food was good, though the chef was a little heavy on the salt for our tastes on both dishes (a pasta dish and a brisket). The area of Manitou Springs is lovely and it was a nice relaxing lunch.
