Are you unsure of how you would like to spend your Colorado vacation? Whether you came for business, adventure and outdoor exploration or the shopping of Downtown Denver and Boulder; Niwot, Colorado is the perfect place to stay to accommodate all of your vacation desires. Niwot is a small town just 10 minutes from Boulder, 45 minutes from Denver and 50 minutes from Estes Park! This location is ideal for guests with multiple needs and preferences. You can easily enjoy hiking and exploration during the day and head to the city for an evening of fine dining and shopping!
The Niwot Inn & Spa, affectionately called “The Inn,” provides a relaxing escape from big city life. Boulder Magazine gave the hotel a four star rating; “One of the best luxury Inns I’ve stayed in. The main room fireplace alone is worth the trip.” People come to Colorado for all kinds of reasons, you can’t go hiking every day, so on your off days come and check out Downtown Denver or the renowned Pearl Street Mall right in Downtown Boulder; the hotel is just minutes from Downtown Boulder which also features the University of Colorado at Boulder (a beautiful, mountainside campus).
Offering only 14 rooms and a fully-furnished two bedroom apartment, the Niwot Inn & Spa offers short and long term stay options and is guaranteed to never be too crowded. The rooms vary from 1-2 bed standard guestrooms and suites and all feature their own fireplace. Pricing can be found here–> Room Rates
The Inn also features an extensive spa with experienced massage therapists ready to help re-center your energy and massage away your stresses! The spa makes for a perfect relaxation after a long day of outdoor activities. Estes Park, which is just under an hour away from the hotel, offers world class hiking trails which never disappoint. Of course with a location like this, Estes Park is only one of your many adventure options. El Dorado Canyon is a personal favorite of mine because of the endless scenery and countless trails; El Dorado Canyon State Park is about 15 minutes from Downtown Boulder and 45 minutes from Niwot. El Dorado Canyon needs little introduction to some as it provides a world class climbing center. The Canyon features several famous climbing routes including; The Naked Edge, Rosy Crusifiction, Bastille Crack and Inner Space.
Whether you prefer hiking, climbing, biking, shopping or just a relaxing vacation in beautiful, scenic Colorado, the Niwot Inn & Spa is the perfect place to stay! Very few bed & breakfasts capture the exceptional, unique experience that comes with the luxurious appeal of the Inn. The affordability coupled with a unique experience; some of our guests even prefer to stay at the Inn while in town on business as opposed to the big name, chain hotels.
Check out what one of their recent guests, Tim, had to say about the Niwot Inn:
“I travel a lot for work, and I normally stay in the “mega” hotels. This was the first time to stay in a ‘quaint’ place such as the Niwot Inn while on business. Bottom line; it was a GREAT experience. It felt like going ‘home’ each night after a long day of business meetings. The staff is wonderful, and the accommodations are excellent. If you have had a long day at work and want to unwind, just sit on the front porch and have a glass of complimentary wine, and perhaps some cheese or a homemade cookie, and you will see what I mean!”
Anyone can go to a local Hampton or Holiday Inn and get exactly what you expect/paid for. With the Niwot Inn & Spa, you pay comparable rates and enjoy a unique experience that will be sure to have you coming back for more! Our only warning is to be careful; living like this is addicting, once you get a taste you’ll just want to come back!
