My adult sons and I stayed at the HWH and had a great time. We booked two rooms, one double and one with two twins. The boys had a relatively sleepless night, having felt eyes watching them all night! I didn't have the same experience, but slept well despite the creaking floors and snores that filtered through the wooden doors... more

Our room was big, comfortable and nicely furnished with pretty antiques, and we had an excellent meal on the pleasant outdoor patio. However, from a place called "Historic Western Hotel" one would expect not only old fashioned Wild West furnishings & a good dinner but a hearty breakfast as well. To our chagrin, when we went down at 8.30 not... more

My husband and I and my two sons and one daughter-in-law vacationed in Ouray, CO last week of July 2009. We did not stay at the Historic Western Hotel but we did get a tour and ate at the restaraunt. The hotel is wonderful in it's rich stories of the past told by "Gregg" the very nice hotel owner. I... more

we went to this hotel sight unseen as a friend had booked it for us. all we knew was that is was historic and kind of primitive. we are always up for a good adventure, but were not prepared for the wonderful time coming our way! as this is the "off" season for this community, we were lucky to get... more

We did not had possibility to stay in this old, charming Wild-West hotel but I had an indept look into the rooms, bathrooms and restaurant.

My family and I were very excited to stay in this historic little hotel. I booked the rooms by calling the front desk directly and had no problems. The hotel is in a great location on a side street, right off the main street. When we checked in, it was pretty much like we expected; old, creaky, no elevator, small,... more

Take a step back into the 19th Century! As you walk through the front door you’re greeted by Colorado history at its best. You will enjoy hand painted wallpaper, original tin ceilings and tales of the old west. The Inn Keeper, Greg, will wow you with historical fact of gun fights, silver mines and gold gold-rushing. Not only is this... more

Ouray's a strange little town, so it's fitting that we stayed in this strange little hotel. The first thing that you should know about this hotel is that if they offer you a room with a "shared" bath, you're going to be sharing a tiny, dingy shower stall, two toilets, and two leaky faucets with 5 other rooms and 10... more

we really wish we had known about this place before we hit ouray. never having been to this gorgeous mountain village before, we made reservations at a best western, figuring that would be fine. the best western WAS fine. suddenly, fine seemed like not good enough when we--by chance--walked into the lobby of this 1891 hotel. talk about stepping back... more
