A Closer Look at Hotel Boulderado
When it opened on New Year’s Day, 1909, Hotel Boulderado was Boulder’s first luxury hotel. The name is a combination of “Boulder” and “Colorado,” and was designed to make sure no one would forget where they stayed.
The hotel’s architecture is a blend of Italian Renaissance and Spanish Revival, with a stunning cherrywood staircase and a breathtaking stained-glass ceiling in the lobby.

Over the years, this historic hotel has welcomed notable guests like:
- Enos Mills, founder of Rocky Mountain National Park
- Actress Ethel Barrymore
- Poet Robert Frost
It’s no surprise it’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
