Hotel Boulderado

The historic Hotel Boulderado is located at 13th and Spruce St. in downtown Boulder, Colorado. It opened its doors on New Year's Day 1909. The original 1908 Otis Elevator is still in operation.

"As one of the first Boulder hotels, it is located in the heart of downtown. The hotel's name comes from the words "Boulder" and "Colorado" so no guest would forget where they had stayed. The hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a member of the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Historic Hotels of America."

The hotel maintains the original Victorian elegance of the property in every guest room, with elegantly furnished guestrooms, and comfortable antique furnished sitting areas. The lobby boasts a restored copy of the famed stained glass ceiling and the original cantilevered cherry wood staircase. Hotel literature from the 1920s stated "every guest may expect the best and get it", a policy which is still upheld in a modernized hotel with all the latest amenities.

The Hotel Boulderado houses three restaurants. Located off of the main lobby are Q's, a popular fine-dining restaurant, and the Corner Bar, a more casual eatery. The basement contains Catacombs, a lively bar generally open until well after midnight. All three restaurants share a kitchen.

The Hotel Boulderado appears in Stephen King's novel Misery.

Famous quotes containing the word hotel:

    Consider his life which was valueless
    In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
    Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
    Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
    On the death of one so young and so silly
    Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?
