Mountain trails were challenging.
Great gym for working out.
ChristyCharming cottage-style property with basic amenities: restaurant, 24-hour gym, souvenir shop, and a partially open “indoor” pool. Food is nicely presented, like elevated pub fare. No luggage room and late check-in at 3…
SarahCouldn’t fault the hotel - large in all respects but not a lot of character.
RichardThe hotel is over a large area, fortunately we were located near reception and the breakfast area. There are shuttles on demand that take you to the other areas of the resort such as the pool, restaurant and canopy/night…

What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about El Establo Mountain Hotel
What time is check-in and check-out at El Establo Mountain Hotel?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:00 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does El Establo Mountain Hotel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at El Establo Mountain Hotel?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Does El Establo Mountain Hotel have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Is breakfast included at El Establo Mountain Hotel?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does El Establo Mountain Hotel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at El Establo Mountain Hotel?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does El Establo Mountain Hotel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book El Establo Mountain Hotel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
