This lovely historic hotel is a true gem. I was concerned about the squeaky floorboards in this old hotel, but I was pleasantly surprised by the consideration of the other guests, and my sleep was not disturbed. Staying at the Hotel St. Nicholas is an authentic experience.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The rooms were very comfortable. The owners and staff are very nice and helpful. We enjoyed the tavern on sight where we mingled with the locals heard the ghost stories about the hotel. Sat on the porch with our coffee in the morning. Just a great place to stay. Will definitely go back.

Quiet Gem Perched Above Cripple Creek

Loved Room 16! Quiet and a great view! Staff was friendly and engaging. They answered all of our questions and made our stay super easy and comfortable. Hotel is 125 + years old so has the usual creaks and bumping of pipes and still absolutely delightful. All we needed was a ghost appearance for perfection. Will stay again!

We had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were super friendly. The only negative thing I would say is the floor is real creaky at all hours of the night. I would recommend staying on the 3rd floor.

Creaky old place is full of character in the best of ways. Clean, safe, friendly and out of the way yet convenient to all the lures of Cripple Creek. Why would we consider staying at a casino hotel? We wouldn't and shall stay again here soon in this old hotel (more like a B&B actually with its own bar on premises). Stay here!

Hell of a nice getaway

Perfect get away place that has great amenities. It's a little weird but very, very pleasant and it attracts interesting people. We've stayed here twice and had a great time hanging out looking at views, talking with complete strangers in the Boiler Room bar and interacting with people in the parlor between piano performances! Really nice and we'll come again.
