Step 1: Book Your Home Base

SCP Hotel, short for Soul Community Planet Hotel, is the ideal base for travelers who believe in healthy living, kindness toward others and compassion for the planet. On this Colorado Springs weekend trip, immerse yourself in a space that feels as restorative as the mountains outside. SCP Hotel blends modern design with eco-conscious touches, offering a retreat that is both stylish and mindful. Choose from spacious guest rooms, family-friendly bunk rooms or suites with mountain views. Just seven miles from the airport and minutes from restaurants and natural wonders, it’s perfectly located.

Pro tip: Book directly through SCP Hotel for access to special offers, seasonal packages and perks.

Step 2: Kick Off the Weekend with Intention

Take time to settle into your new surroundings. On-site amenities keep relaxation and slow living at the heart of your stay: sip locally roasted coffee, stretch with a yoga class and clear your mind in the fitness center. Communal spaces invite conversation, while the lounge areas provide cozy spots to curl up with a book. Swing by Provisions Market for an organic snack, kombucha or local craft beer before heading up to your room to refresh for dinner. Guests traveling with pets are delighted to find a water bowl, treats and a toy waiting.

Step 3: Get a Taste of Colorado Springs

While SCP Hotel offers fresh bites and beverages on property, you’re also close to some of the city’s top restaurants. Enjoy craft beer at a downtown brewery, wood-fired pizza with mountain views and farm-to-table dining with regional ingredients. Whatever you choose, SCP Hotel makes it easy to enjoy the local food scene without straying far. After an evening out, return for a nightcap by the fire.

Step 4: Pick an Adventure

Colorado Springs enjoys nearly 300 sunny days each year, making it one of the best places to rejuvenate mind, body and spirit. Step outside, soak up the sunshine and breathe in the mountain air.

Guided Tours: Let the hotel connect you with a local outfitter so you can relax while an expert guide leads the way. Depending on the season, you may find hiking, rock climbing, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, hot air ballooning and jeep tours.

Self-Guided Tours: If you prefer to explore on your own, many of Colorado Springs’ most beautiful spots are just minutes from SCP Hotel. Favorites include:

North Cheyenne Cañon Park: A historic treasure with dozens of trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding. For a quick, moderate workout, try the Mt. Cutler Trail, a 2-mile round-trip hike with views of waterfalls and canyons.
Garden of the Gods: No trip to Colorado Springs is complete without visiting this free park, where massive red rock formations rise dramatically against the sky. Wander the trails, snap photos and take in the awe of nature’s artistry.
