Top Boulder Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Boulder

10/10 Excellent

"It was clean, about five minutes driving to Pearl Street, the staff were amazing, the bar doesn’t open late however, it was fine. The hotel is a little worn but they keep it very clean. Oh! I loved the swinging chairs in the lobby. "

Homewood Suites by Hilton - Boulder

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hot breakfast each day. We had a two room/one bedroom suite. The bathroom was only accessible through the bedroom and it was quite small. However we did have a stovetop and larger fridge along with kitchen sink and dishwasher. Great set up even if the bathroom was a little inconvenient. "

Comfort Inn & Suites Boulder

6/10 Okay

"The room and bathroom weren't very clean and hair left from previous people. The hot tub was broken so no jets really but still hot to sit in. Lots of construction going on around the area. For the price it was great just wish it was better for cleanliness and noncoffee grounds in the coffee for breakfast. "
