Collage of travelers made its way to The Golden Bee at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs — a place where time seems to linger a little longer, wrapped in brass, wood, and the low hum of conversation. From the moment we arrived, the reception was gracious, the kind of welcome The Broadmoor has perfected — warm, polished, and unhurried.
Lunch carried that same quiet elegance.

At The Armadillo, it wasn’t just dinner; it was a moment of comfort, connection, and continuity — a reminder that hospitality can taste like memory.
