“25th anniversary spot”

My husband and I stayed three nights at the Bradley during our long weekend 25th anniversary celebration in Boulder. We had lived in Boulder for 15 years before moving to Santa Fe four years ago. The Bradley was a perfect base for our trip down memory lane—just off the Pearl Street Mall and within walking distance of every downtown restaurant and shop, including those in the North Boulder/Ideal shopping centers at Alpine and Broadway (not to be confused with the new NOBO neighborhood at far north Broadway).

Our room (12) was large, clean, comfortable, and quiet. Well, the AC was noisy, but at least it was a mostly constant noise, and I figured it drowned out any possible noise from the restaurant across the alley. We heard no noise from other guests or the common areas on the first floor. The continental breakfast was tasty (especially the granola), but we passed it up on Sat. and Sun. because they started serving at 8, which was way too late for us (we wanted to get out on hiking trails before it got too hot). The staff was friendly and helpful, but not the hovering type you sometimes find in B&Bs. There’s plenty of room in the common areas to visit with others or read. Highly recommended.

Our brief stay at The Bradley was just perfect if not too short. The staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms large and very comfortable. The location is very convenient to the Pearl Street Mall. The wine and cheese hour in the common room is nice and the inn also offers complimentary beverages in the kitchen (bottled water, soda, etc.) and a common internet station. The rooms and public areas are nicely appointed and have interesting art from local artists. The breakfast, which was included with the room, was delicious!

Our room had French doors that opened up onto 16th street and offered glimpses of the mountains. It also had a fireplace which was not used due to the hot summer temps. Thankfully it also had AC which we welcomed!

Stayed at the Bradley for a one night getaway with my wife. We'd never been to Boulder and loved this place and the city. If you're visiting Boulder for the first time, it's a great place to stay because you can walk to all the cool shops, restaurants, bars on Pearl Street. Our room was lovely and the entire house was beautiful. Very friendly staff. Liked the wine & cheese in the evening. Couldn't tell you about the breakfast becuase we had to leave early to catch a flight. Probably not the cheapest place to stay in Boulder, but well worth the $200 a night!

This place is perfect!! It is well managed with great attention to detail. It seems to have been newly renovated and is stylish and sparkling clean. It is hard to leave the sitting area which is very enviting and even more so when they serve afternoon wine/ beer and snacks. It is not typcial of most BB receptions but more like staying in a friends home. There is a working office area, beautiful artwork and books and an open kitchen with drinks , coffee and home baked cookies daily. There are also no hidden charges.The location is perfect and you are walking distance to many great restaurants and very close to CU . I would come back in a heartbeat. I am traveling with my 20 year old son and he is also happy here. Great for adults and almost adults. Everyone here is so friendly that you forget to lock your door as if you were at home. There is one parking space right in front which makes it very convienent. The beds are so soft you won't want to leave. Eldora the ski place nearby is not worth the trip- mainly school trips and locals, no real lodge. The Alpine skiing there is good. The ride up is beautiful. Ski elsewhere. But there are discounted ski passes at the inn. The only disappointment was the fireplace is gas, not wood burning.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful review and we're so glad you enjoyed your trip to Boulder and your stay at The Bradley. Wish we could have a woodburning fireplace for our guests, but they're not permitted in commercial establishments in our town :) Hope to see you again soon in Boulder.

We stayed at the Bradley Inn for only one night in early November, but had a wonderful stay. Having been a student in Boulder last time I was there it was so nice to go back and enjoy the city in style! The Bradley Inn is beautiful in a rustic Colorado sort of way. The common area has a wonderful fireplace and very comfortable beautiful leather sofas with picture books of Colorado history spread out everywhere. Local art (by very talented artists) on every wall, most of which you would love to take home with you (which you can, they are all for sale) and the wine and cheese hour at the end of the day is a really nice welcome. The rooms are very spacious and the cute wooden cats curled up at the end of the bed are hypo-allergenic! Parking is available, which is a huge plus on Pearl Street and shopping and dining are just a few feet away.

The Inn exhudes high-class Colorado style and will provide wonderful memories of your stay in Boulder.
