The Western Hotel and Spa 210 7th Avenue, Ouray, CO 81427

"Came for a night last week to celebrate Josephine's birthday. Balcony Room 204 was spacious with great light and a big sunny balcony. The spa sauna and hot tub were perfect. Dinner at the saloon outstanding. We nordic skied at Ironton, went to the hots springs pool in Town. The hotel is charming and the restoration was well done, retaining the character of the original structure. Good job all around."

"Stayed 3 nights at the Western Hotel on a solo roadtrip. Originally booked 2 nights, but loved it so much I added another. Loved everything from the rooms with their eclectic western decor and charm to the Grotto Spa (glorious hot soaking pool, cold plunge and sauna - which I had to myself!!) to the amazingly delicious hamburger, salad and mocktail I enjoyed at the Saloon. There was a cool pop-up shop from Crossbow Leather Telluride. The staff (Hi Katie!) was super nice and helpful and chill. It was just the vibe I was looking for. I will certainly return! (as a note - there is no elevator - just steps which are a little steep!)"

"My husband and I stayed at this hotel during the fall of 2023, and it was great. The staff, the room, everything. We came back to their restaurant in March 2024 and it was amazing. I had their soup de jour a vegetable sour with large beans, cabbage, kale, carrots and ginger; it was divine. I also enjoyed their Pork Belly Lettuce wraps, again amazing. My husband had their burger with salad and he really enjoyed it. I tasted it, it was good, but he likes it rarer than I do, soooo. The staff are all super friendly, and the check is delivered in an old paperback book (so cute). Then we decided to have a pomegranate cheese cake and it was delicious, but we were so stuffed we probably shouldn't have ordered it. I was great regardless. The atmosphere is so comfy, they had a wonderful singer. LOVE IT!"

"My wife and I had the most amazing one night stay here. From the moment we entered, we were met with great vibes and caring staff. To add to the unmatched atmosphere, The drinks and food are easily the best in town. The price range, the thought behind every detail of decor/theme, the views from the room, the location, quality, live music entertainment, the spa, I can’t say enough positive words. The rooms were extremely clean and cute, they even gave us robes/slippers and a speaker. My only note is that the pillows are hard/thick and caused for a little neck pain. I can’t wait to return and stay for an extended period!"

"Last week I had the pleasure to stay here and cannot say enough good things about the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel right at home welcoming me with a tour of the hotel and sharing some of the history from its inception in 1891. The attention to detail throughout the hotel is masterful, with original wallpaper, preservation of their Grotto Spa, and a Saloon that will make you feel like you stepped back in time to an old cowboy era. On top of this, the dining experience was top notch, with talented chefs in the wood fired kitchen to skilled bartenders crafting your favorite cocktail or mock tail. I cannot recommend this stay enough for your next trip to Ouray."
