Great Spot to enjoy Boulder

This is the perfect location for all that Boulder has to offer. We spent our time cruising the shops and restaurants of Pearl St. Street parking was east nearby and the hotel offers affordable valet which is a great deal if you are in and out a lot. Our only complaint is that we did not get to stay in the original historic part of the hotel. We were in the newer annex, which was nice, but didn't have quite as much character.

nice visit

We had a nice room with two queen beds, a second sink, and a large bath. Everything was nice and comfortable. The hotel is ideally located for visiting downtown Boulder by foot. The staff was very helpful. Valet parking is convenient and cheap at $10 per night.

great location!

Our family went to Boulder for a mini vacation and college visit. The hotel is in a great location and the staff is nice and friendly. The hotel has historic charm, enough restaurants, is clean and accommodating. On the other hand, it is old and not updated. Our room was kind of dreary and dark and the beds were not very comfortable.

History and Convenience

The Boulderado has been around forever, but has all the modern comforts. A great staff, comfortable quiet rooms, free wi-fi. And you are a stone's throw from all that downtown Boulder has to offer.

Absolutely beautiful Historic Hotel

The staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly and helpful. I have NEVER had such great customer service at any other Hotel I have stayed in. The Hotel (although historic and old) was very clean. The bed was a bit soft for us, but we enjoyed our stay and will stay at the Boulderado the next time we are in Boulder.

Great hotel.

We stayed at this hotel because it was close to Perl St and the Eldora ski resort. The staff was nice and the room was comfortable.

Dining and shopping was just a short walk. The ski resort was about 30 minutes away. This was not a problem since the weather was clear, however, weather could make access to the slopes difficult if not impossible.

Boulderado was a trip back in time

Hotel Boulderado is like a trip back in time. All the amenities are there - breakfast in the hotel restaurant was wonderful. The ambiance really gives you the feeling of what it would have been like 100 years ago! Friendly staff and gorgeous architecture!
