I’ve travelled a lot and I have never felt so at home and comfortable at a hotel. The room layout was thoughtful, tons of storage built in with lots of open space still, which was so important for a longer stay. The amenities, staff, and general vibes made for a wonderful stay. It’s also our first trip with a new puppy, and their pet friendly add on’s made it so easy. And we felt like a local celebrity! We may plan a trip back to Boulder just to stay here!

Brand new beautiful hotel right in the heart of Boulder, just across the street from the north end of the campus. Easy walk to Pearl Street and downtown, and just an all-around high-quality contemporary and luxurious property with really nice rooms and excellent bath fixtures. Top-notch experience with friendly and helpful staff.
