The beds were so very hard. The breakfast was nice and the size of the rooms was nice. It smelled a little musty. The staff was very friendly. They let us borrow a crib for the night at no charge which was very nice. It was far out of town and a quaint location.

A clean, comfortable room at a fantastic price! We stayed 1 night but we'll be back. Jim, the owner, was both king and knowledgable! His employee! Evan was also great! The breakfast was really good. The only place of improvement would be to upgrade the wifi to include a stronger signal. I couldn't even get on in the lobby! Other... More

We were in town for a square dance event and only spent one night, so we didn't get a chance to use all the amenities. But the staff was very pleasant, the rooms were nice and well maintained, the beds were quite comfortable, and the setting beautiful. I especially appreciated the heating/cooling unit that ran with no rattles or buzzes,... More

Stayed at Water Wheel Inn while on our fall vacation.. Nice place: country feel, quiet...serene...The hot tub needed more water but was still nice after a day of Motorcyle riding.. Ate at The Trough next door and was wonderful...Was able to do laundry here and they were very accommodating...Breakfast was awesome with pastries; cinnamon rolls, blueberry scones, pumpkin scones, coffee....

We stayed at this location a couple of nights during the last week of September, 2012. This was not our first stay here, and we will certainly go back in the future. I really enjoy the laid back, quiet nature of the unit. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable. There is a well equipped workout room and spa area,... More

We stayed for a night during the USA National pro cycling race. It is an older hotel but quiet. The back has a golf course that guests are not allowed on but it is nice to sit and watch. They have chairs and picnic tables along the hotel so quests can sit. The front has a small pond with running... More

This is the second time we've stayed at the Water Wheel Inn. The Inn is showing it's age although I still think it's a good deal. There's not many hotel choices in Gunnison. We had a second floor room and were there for 2 nights.. It was clean and quiet. The Inn appeared to be only about half full -... More

Choices of places to stay are thin in this area. We were a little disappointed with the quality of the place, a bit dated and scruffy. Most of the other guests were workmen driving trucks who all left noisily very early for work. Breakfast was a bit synthetic....but it was ok. Very unreliable internet connection.

Our family and friends stayed at the Water Wheel in in Gunnison Colorado in September 2011. We probably booked half the hotel for our family wedding. There were other events in the area, so the Water Wheel was pretty booked. However, because our family needed to make some last minute changes, we needed to work closely with staff, especially Thelma.... More
