At Christmas I got a spa day at at the Saint Julien. I have had a massage and my tired old bones were looking forward to it. I had the distinct pleasure of experiencing a lovely lady named Rose. Believe me when I tell you that she found sore muscles I didn't know I had all over my body.It felt so good, I almost feel asleep. I just walked out of there with a smile on my face I could not wipe off if you made me. I was so relaxed, I floated out of the spa, took a warm shower and I could have taken on the world after that massage. Rose really helped my arthritic pain and if I could have given her a medal for massage, I would have.
I can't wait to get back here, if I lived in the area, I think I would be here every week-it was that GOOD!

One of our very best night's sleep in a hotel was at the St. Julien. That by itself should get you to go.

We were able to get a complimentary upgrade with mountain views upon check-in, which was a very nice surprise. The entire staff was exceedingly friendly, especially our bellman David, who was really very helpful with his advice as well as service with a smile. The room had a nice balcony with a view of the mountains, and although the Canyon Blvd. traffic noise was somewhat annoying, the view was worth it.

It's location can't be beat, just off the Pearl St. mall. While we tend to avoid typical touristy things when traveling, many of the excellent restaurants in Boulder are located on Pearl St., as are many independent stores, so it's worth a trip. All within walking distance of the St. Julien.

We enjoyed some time in the large hot tub late at night, and no one bothered us when we stayed past the official closing time. Treating us like adults instead of shooing us out when they closed was a nice touch. Similarly, the shower was the best thing to experience first thing in the morning, although it's a bit of a shock to exit the closed shower into a comparably cold bathroom.

Service was roundly excellent with the exception of the lounge/lobby. While friendly, the staff was less than attentive, for example picking up my wife's empty drink and walking away, without asking if she wanted another round, or anything else at all. We were similarly invisible the entire time we spent in the lounge.

The food was also very good. We had appetizers in the lounge (get the "tots"--amazing) as well as room service our last night and enjoyed everything we had. Next time we'll try dinner in Jill's.

Overall, the stay was a resounding success, and we were absolutely delighted with everything except for the service on that one occasion, the only reason I rated Service 4/5. We can't wait to return!

The best are unbelievably comfortable. You do not want to get up! All aspects of the room are just want you would like. The staff is extremely guest service oriented: warm and friendly. They seem to enjoy their jobs. The location is perfect. The spa was wonderful. We will be excited to return.

Just had our third stay at the St. Julien, this time for 5 days. Although we reserved a 2 room suite months ago, we were going to be put into a smaller room. After a long wait at the end of the day, we were given what we reserved but the suite had a terrible odor, as if someone had been sick there, if you catch my drift. No response from the management regarding this issue other than being told it had just been "deep cleaned." After 2 days of leaving a window open and using scented candles, the odor dissipated but it did spoil our vacation somewhat. Bottom line - this is a beautifully designed and decorated hotel in a great location and the staff is friendly and tries to please. But I felt it was understaffed during the busy holiday period and the management didn't handle our problem well at all.
