The General Palmer Hotel earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment across recent guests, who consistently celebrate its prime downtown location, authentic Victorian-era atmosphere, and warm, knowledgeable staff. Minor practical drawbacks — chiefly the very small historic elevator, occasional hot-water inconsistencies, and a repetitive breakfast spread — surface in a handful of reviews but rarely dampen overall enthusiasm. For most guests, the hotel's historic character and convenience more than compensate for these quirks.
- Tiny elevator struggles with luggage and limits capacity to two people
- Hot water issues reported on the 2nd floor
- Transom windows above doors let in unwanted light
- Breakfast menu repetitive with no daily variation
- Heating controls difficult to manage in some rooms

“Chandler knew everything about the history of the hotel and was great filling us in upon arrival. Caleb was very attentive as well. Great staff!”
“If we had known how good this hotel is we would have stayed 2 nights to fully appreciate the history of this hotel and its location.”
“The elevator is quaint; but difficult to work with bags and won't hold more than two.”
“Clean, Comfortable, and Charming beyond belief. Will stop again as we travel through Durango occasionally.”
