Review: We came to Longmont from Portland, Oregon, for a class and chose the Niwot Inn from the options we found online. I thought it was going to be a place to stay and instead it was an experience to remember. It is warm, welcoming, and relaxing, gorgeous to look at, and did I say relaxing? Sitting in a comfy chair in the evening in front of a wood fire and eating a warm cookie had me relaxing like I haven't in a long time.

Location: Central Boulder
Review: My wife and I spent a 4 day getaway at Chautauqua. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. We flew into Denver and took the RTD bus into Boulder. It was then a one mile walk to Chautauqua. We arrived well before check-in, so the front desk let us leave our bags with them and we continued our day. The hiking trails start right outside the cottages. The large park was great for relaxing and reading in the shade. We loved walking to Pearl St and enjoying the foodie Boulder..., by Brent, August 16, 2015, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: The staff was exceptionally kind and helpful. I was upgraded to a King suite before and after my ski trip. The room was big and warm. My daughter and I enjoyed a wonderful mother/daughter trip.

Review: We had a lovely stay! The hotel is clean, bright, and very comfortable with a wonderful modern design in the rooms as well as common spaces. Parking is plentiful in the well-lit garage under the hotel.
