My husband and I spent our anniversary weekend at the Capitol Mansion B&B, and it was FABULOUS! The mansion sits in historic Capitol Hill, Denver, just "a stone's throw" from The Molly Brown House, The Kirkland Museum, Dazzle Jazz and Supper Club, and spectacular downtown Denver.
Our room (The Shooting Star) was cozy and gorgeous with everything you could possible need or want. Carl Schmidt, Owner and Chef had the downstairs decorated for the holidays with a gorgeous tree and the fireplace mantel accented with gourds that had been hand painted and designed by his aunt. We sat comfortably in the living room space (there's a piano for your use if you play) and played board games with some of the other guests. Now let's get to the breakfast...super yum! To meet my vegetarian needs, Carl prepared a delectable mushroom omelet that sat on top of a sweet potato puree. For those like my hubby who weren't veggies, Carl had prepared a delicious benedict-ham and all. There was also a lavish fruit tray, a "melt in your mouth" blueberry-crumb coffee cake, croissants, coffee, tea, etc. Thanks to Carl and his charming daughter Bailey, our anniversary was the best ever!
Room Tip: You might want to go up to the turret rooms that have amazing views. In the summer months, Carl has a lovely outside patio where you can have your breakfast, or just sit outside with a glass of wine in the evening.
