Wonderful food (though not the heartiest breakfast), fantastic setting, attentive yet polite and discreet staff, fabulous rooms. Not enough? Superbly furnished, this is a dream getaway. Ideal for a special occasion. It's not cheap!

My wife and I have just returned from a four day stay in a Garden Suite at the Gilpin Lodge. This is a very well managed and family owned hotel that was able to respond quickly and competently to an unexpected power cut one morning just before breakfast. The residents were kept informed of what was happening, breakfast was made... More

We have stayed here a couple of times before but not for 3 years, and we needed a reminder about what a beautiful, elegant, comfortable hotel it is! All the decor and furnishings have been well thought out and are of excellent quality, much money must have been spent on it and it shows. There are many delightful places to... More

For a start, this hotel is expensive! BUT, worth every penny. My wife took me for 3 nights for my 60th birthday and what a present it was. We were treated like royalty but in a very friendly, homely way. The staff and the family owners could'nt have done more to make us feel special. Each morning we looked out... More

My husband and I stayed at this lovely place for an entire week, to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. It just could not have been better! It takes a lot of work to deliver an experience like this! Whatever they are doing, they are doing it right. The service was superlative. Everyone was friendly and welcoming without somehow being overbearing.... More

We had to move to the Gilpin Hotel for the last night of our Wedding Anniversary due to a function at the first hotel we stayed at. Although that was a bit inconvenient the Gilpin did everything they could to make the transition as smooth as possible. We were upgraded to one of the Garden Suites which had a Hot... More

An absolutely amazing stay at the Gilpin Lake House - our expectations were exceeded in every way.

A perfect night in a stunning setting, thank... More

I stayed here with my husband for our wedding anniversary in December 2012 and this is just a lovely hotel. We stayed in the garden suite and the room was big and clean with great tea and coffee making facilities. The hot tub was really nice. We did have a in room massage and I did find that a little...

Taken here for a surprise 2 night break by my wife for my 50th birthday and loved every minute of it. Didn't know where we were going so initial check in was a little unnerving in the oldest part of the hotel with reception being a tiny room under the stairs. However from then on you are guided through beautiful... More
