Top Boulder Hotel Reviews

Homewood Suites by Hilton - Boulder

10/10 Excellent

"External exit is very nice"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Boulder

10/10 Excellent

"One of the cleanest hotel rooms I’ve stayed in. Every staff member I encountered was friendly and knowledgeable. The breakfast is a yummy bonus. We were there Fri and Sat night and the person running the breakfast was on point and super kind. The room was quiet and we slept well. The parking is great being all around the building with easy access. My sister and I enjoyed it so much that when we come back to Boulder in a couple months for another event we set ourselves and other family up to stay here."

Residence Inn by Marriott Boulder Canyon Boulevard

10/10 Excellent

"This place was great. The staff was super helpful, breakfasts were delicious and every employee was super friendly. We ate breakfast there almost every day. The only issue we had was the room key expired 15 minutes before checkout so we got locked out while we were moving our items out. We were part of a group and heard this happened everywhere so I think it’s coded that way intentionally"
