Stay at the Classy Hotel Boulderado

The Hotel Boulderardo is a historic pillar of the community, sitting in the heart of downtown, only minutes away from the Pearl Street Mall and one mile from the Boulder University campus. Built in 1909, it merges the exciting history of frontier adventure with the touch of settled exploration. Elegance, class, style, are all words to be thrown under its belt, but to truly experience regality you’ll have to book a stay in one of the beautiful rooms in the five-story brick building. As you walk to your room make sure to look up and soak in the famous stained glass ceiling, filter Colorado’s three hundred days of sunlight through the Boulderado’s lobby.

Underneath the hotel is a snazzy cocktail bar called License No. 1 where any drink that can be imagined can be made. It’s the perfect grotto to chill out at after a day of Boulder adventure, before turning in with the stars. How did it get that name? By being one of the first restaurants in Colorado to obtain a liquor license in 1969. Appropriate, isn’t it? The bar also serves food, and live music most nights of the week. It’s well worth popping under because you’ll most likely stick around.

And if you’re looking for excitement without venturing outside—maybe it’s a rare rainy evening—then look no further than the halls of the hotel. You may discover a lurking spirit. Yes, Hotel Boulderado is a favorite haunt for hunters of the paranormal. Maybe you too will leave with an encounter from beyond this world.
