Moxy Boulder University

8/10 Good

"My stay was great at the Moxy. Room was"

Limelight Boulder

10/10 Excellent

"The place was so nice I almost felt bad leaving to spend a day in the mountains. With all the amenities and perks its basically a resort."

Hotel Boulderado

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely classic Boulder hotel. They surprised us with an upgrade to the Presidential Suite, quite unexpected and enjoyed!! Room was very spacious and lovely ! Breakfast at Spruce was great. Staff all super friendly. Location is great, very central, easy to walk around. Parking is a bit of a nuisance, and tho they have relationship with a local gym, having sauna or jacuzzi in house would have been great."

Boulder Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"Unfortunately we slept through breakfast every day but housekeeping didn’t bother us and were extra helpful in bringing hypoallergenic sheets (maybe just extra rinsed but that was fine if the case) for my hypersensitive skin. Staff was super helpful in directing us to our destinations and the timing for the events. Would have liked to rent their Ebikes but they were one size fits all for men or VERY tall women but once again the staff came to our rescue and directed us to city bike rentals and how to work the app for them. I stay at Marriotts quite frequently and this was be of the nicest I’ve stayed at to date. Thank you for making our stay pleasant."

Foot of the Mountain Motel

8/10 Good

"Easy parking. Great location. Rustic in the best way- the way in which you feel like you are staying in a place with character, managed by real people who actually care about their establishment and their customers. The staff were friendly and responsive- they exceeded expectations and made sure we had what we needed for our stay."

Bradley Boulder Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Such a quaint boutique hotel with amazing amenities. Hospitality reception and breakfast was so appreciated and loved the peacefulness. Great proximity and Pearl St. only bummer was we didn’t get a room with a fireplace…maybe next time!"
