We stayed here because of the unavailability of places in Breckenridge, etc., and it was on the way back home....AFTER reading the good (previous) reviews....they were not wrong. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and only interested in your stay being everything enjoyable so you'd come back....which we will. The breakfast was incredible....the snacks/etc. available the night before tucking... More

We plan our anniversary trips around the Hand Hotel. This charming get away is the perfect place to unwind and reconnect. Charming and quite. The breakfast provided for guests can't be beat. We won't stay any where else. The staff is friendly and go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Wow what an experience coming from Australia this hotel really had a feel of the old west. Being very old and creeky only added to the feel of it. This hotel has been renovated and each room has a different theme. We stayed in the western room which had cool bunkbeds for the kids, they love it. Guns on the... More

Worth a trip to Fairplay to stay in this refurbished, quaint hotel. The rooms are nicely done, the breakfast is above expectations and the staff, including the dogs, are wonderful and most accommodating. There's a couple of sitting rooms off the lobby with nice views that are great for gatherings if you have a group or also are relaxing for... More

The Hand Hotel in Fairplay was a pleasant surprise. We understood that this was an old hotel and that there would be limitations. Other than the lack of a fresh air source for the room, our experience was better than our expectations. The bathroom was a newer refurb and great. Cleanliness for room and bath was a plus. Breakfast had... More

Looking for an authentic step back in time? Stay at the Hand in Fairplay! A quaint, quiet B & B. Rooms are all different "themes" from the old West. Check the web site for specifics & pictures. Remember no tv, but there is WiFi, a helpful staff, nice breakfast, squeaky clean rooms & great views all for very reasonable rates... More

We are the only ones in the Hand Hotel its quiet and peaceful. No tv in rooms. The school room #7 has a queen bed for $83 a night. Slept good. Good breakfast comes with room. Drink lots of water because of the high altitude.

This historic hotel is unlike any other, along with the town of Fairplay. Rooms are very well kept but a little on the small size due to putting bathrooms in each room. We had four people but two would be fine. Great breakfast/sitting area overlooking river. Breakfast had lots of choices and you help yourself. There is also a gift... More

The Hand Hotel originally catered to miners a long time ago. The updates since then are mostly in bathrooms in each room instead of shared bathrooms down the hall. Therefore, the rooms tend to be a little small, but are reflective of the age of miners seeking basic service....a room for the night. There is a patio on the west... More
