“Far Exceeded Expectations”

China Clipper Inn

May 22, 2007
5/5 found this review helpful

We quickly selected the China Clipper based on pictures on their web site and price. For $85 we expected a clean, functional, and accommodating place to simply spend a night. We were blown away once we arrived. The Inn itself was as much of a destination for us as was the surrounding beauty of Ouray. There were numerous special touches throughout our room and the Inn that make it inviting, comfortable, and most of all a special place to spend our precious vacation hours. In addition, the food was very good and the service top notch. I would highly recommend this Inn.

7/7 found this review helpful

Elegant and comfortable. We stayed in Boulder, Colorado Springs, Vail, but Ouray and the China Clipper Inn was the best part of our trip. The town is great, the innkeeper knowledgeable and accommodating. The Inn has a number of nice rooms, and we looked at several before deciding on ours. It rained the entire time we were in Ouray but it was still a fantastic experience. Go for an upstairs room!

We had a great trip. Our stay at the China Clipper Inn was THE HIGHLIGHT of so many highlights. We enjoyed the hospitality of the China Clipper. The Inn is so beautiful and comfortable, the hosts very gracious, helpful and delight ful. The wonderful conversations with the hosts and other guests sparked more interesting topics among us as the trip continued. Thanks to the China Clipper...... we will spread the word about the China Clipper Inn.

We had a great stay at the China Clipper Inn. The rooms are very comfortable, spotless and very well appointed. The beds are wonderful. The hospitality was excellent and not intrusive. The hosts wre warm and friendly and yet our privancy was well respected. We highly recommend this Inn and will definitely return on our next visit to Colorado.

“Loved the China Clipper Inn...”

9/9 found this review helpful

My husband and I recently spent 3 relaxing and enjoyable days in Ouray. What a beautiful place! We're a bit jaded, as our profession takes us to places all over the world. Typically, we frequent high-end luxury hotels ranging from Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton and St. Regis. We were thrilled that the innkeeper responded to our doorbell ringing at 11:30 pm! Most facilities in Ouray close shop for business around 9:00 pm. Thankfully, our host Trisha (who was certainly in REM sleep) was not bothered by the sleep interruption. She was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Just lovely. There's really no other place to stay in Ouray if you're looking for a clean, charming place with personality. Hats off to Earl and Trisha! We'll most certainly be back!
