We stayed at the China Clipper Inn for 2 nights Jan 20 and 21 for our anniversary. The place was beautiful and what a relaxing weekend!! We stayed in the Premium 5 room, which has an outside entrance on the top floor, just past the back entrance into the house. I requested top floor overlooking the hot tub and they delivered. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. The breakfast both mornings was wonderful. We enjoyed ours in the sunroom just off the dining room. Very very enjoyable. The Innkeepers were friendly, but let you have your space and privacy, which we like. We sat in the hot tub both evenings and it was just perfect. It was snowing the second night, which added to the aviance. We enjoyed how close the Inn was to everything, so we could just walk. We walked to the ice park and around town.They included passes to the hot springs, so we enjoyed a few hours there, also.
Would definitely return, but probably would upgrade to one of the other rooms. Don't get me wrong, ours was fine, but after a tour of the other rooms available, I fell in love with a few of the others!!!
We ate at the Buen Tiempo Mexican restaurant the first night and the Crab Spinach Enchilada's were to die for. Had lunch at the Ouray Brewery. The sweet potato fries and soup was awesome. The second night we ate at the Outlaw, which has wonderful steaks, but is a tad bit expensive. Unfortunately we did not eat all of our steaks, and forgot them in the fridge at the Clipper!! I was a bit upset, but too far gone when I realized it.
