A couple of residents told us his was the best place to stay in town so we were glad we had read reviews here & booked it. Proprietor was friendly & accommodating, room was clean & very quiet. The small kitchen area was nice (we stayed in a king room) but the electric stove burners did not work. Wifi did... More

Locally owned hotel, with clean just remodeled rooms. We stopped for a night on our tour of Colorado and Utah in historic Idaho Springs just 45 min from Denver. Read great reviews and was not disappointed. Our King Suite included a mini kitchen with table, lovely art, and very clean new fresh room. Delightful and very reasonable rates. It was... More

My boyfriend and I decided to get out of Denver for the night, so we drove up to Idaho Springs and saw The Columbine Inn. It was about 8:30 pm and freezing outside. We rang the bell and the owner, Sam came to help us. He seemed very excited to have us there, and gave us a great a deal... More

I looked up different hotels and bed and breakfasts before I visited Idaho Springs and all reviews said the same thing -- don't stay anywhere but Columbine Inn. So, I booked as instructed and thank God I did. We checked in and the woman at the front desk was sweet, friendly and quick. We then went into our room to... More

Super comfy room. Very spacious and made for a small town feel. Good location right off the highway but in town enough to feel away from the mainstream. Highly recommended for a little mountain get away. Much better value than staying at one of the chain hotels in Breckinridge or Silverthorne.

We landed in Denver and stayed 1 night at a generic airport hotel. Since our plans were to travel West we wanted a hotel about an hours drive out of Denver the next night. After looking in vain for well known chain hotels I realised I would have to find something else for the night. We wanted to drive up... More

There are no "chain " hotels in Idaho Springs, My husband and I stayed at Columbine Inn at the end of October 2012. We stayed for 5 nights. Our room was very clean and the staff tidied it up every day for us. Our room consisted of a king bed, refrig, microwave, sm kitchenette with table. The bathroom was shower/tub... More

The owner/manager was friendly enough. But when I found out there was no wi-fi signal from them, he blamed it on some guests who had left that day and suggested that I try to link into the neighboring motel's wi-fi and gave me a bogus password (so much for getting some work done for clients that evening)... That night my... More
