Staying The Night At Colorado’s Midcentury Modern Amigo Motor Lodge Is Like Stepping Into A Time Machine

The Amigo Motor Lodge in Salida, Colorado, offers a nostalgic midcentury modern experience with modern amenities and unique accommodations.

Do you have an affinity for midcentury modern and all things 1950s and 60s? What if we told you that we have a time machine that will transport you back to this foregone era? Hop in as we travel back in time via Colorado's midcentury modern Amigo Motor Lodge:

Billed as being a "Stylish Motor Lodge in the Mountains of Salida," the Amigo Motor Lodge is a beautiful Colorado hotel that will make you think you left the days of Covid for the days of poodle skirts and Mickey Mouse Club on TV.

Built in the 1950s and 60s, the nostalgia is strong at the Amigo Motor Lodge, thanks to the original architecture and ambiance.

In addition to the midcentury modern-ness, the Amigo Motor Lodge also mixes in a healthy dose of modern-day via minimalist furnishings, unique art, and luxurious brands (Tuft & Needle mattresses, anyone?).

If you are craving even more retro, the Amigo Motor Lodge also offers authentic airstream trailers complete with a queen bed (and additional twin beds in some), a coffee maker, and a nostalgic experience that you will not find anywhere else.

When you stay the night at the Amigo Motor Lodge, you will also be treated to amenities like a hot tub, coffee and tea service, and beautiful relaxing areas.
