Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the Club Hotel located?

The Club Hotel is located in historic downtown Idaho Springs, CO, just a few steps from restaurants, shops, breweries, and local attractions. Our location makes it easy to explore town on foot while still being close to the mountains, hiking trails, and ski areas along the I-70 corridor.

How many rooms do you have available?

Ten rooms are available. Room types are single queens, double queens, and suites.

How do room block reservations work?

We will honor room blocks of any number of rooms (1-10). A discounted rate of 10% will be applicable if all 10 rooms are blocked and booked for your event. Once contracted for a room block, you will have a window of reservation for your guests to reserve a room. When they call to reserve a room, please have them mention your party. If all 10 rooms book, a discount of 10% will be passed onto your guests at the time of check-in.

Is the event space available to guests?

Yes, the event space is available to both guests and community members. Hourly, half day and full day rental rates are available. Please contact sales for more information.

Can we reserve the whole property?

Yes, our property can be rented out as a whole, except for the managers’ quarters. Please contact sales for more information.

is parking available at the club hotel?

Parking can be a challenge in Idaho Springs, but never fear, we are here to help at the Club Hotel.  While parking is included with your reservation, parking around the hotel is not exclusive to Club Hotel guests. After 6 pm, there is normally plenty of parking right in front of the hotel on 16^th Street or in the parking lot across the street.  During busy summer months, arriving in the afternoon the parking is limited.  Please call or email us an estimated arrival time so we can ensure there is a parking spot ready for you.  There is a loading zone closest to the intersection of 16^th and Colorado for you to use during check in.  While you are checking in, we can give you some directions for a good place to park.  Please bring in your license plate so we can enter your car into the parking portal.

Is Club Hotel pet friendly?

Yes, but we do limit our pet friendly rooms to the first-floor rooms because there is no elevator and our stairs are original to the 1882 guesthouse.  We do have a $50 pet fee that includes a great pet basket and use of a pet bed.  There is also pet food available for purchase if you find yourself running short on the trip.

I am arriving after 8:00 pm, how do I check in after hours?

After 8 pm we lock the doors to ensure the security of our guests.  If you are arriving after 8 pm, please email or call us with your estimated arrival time.  When you arrive just park in front of the hotel on 16^th Street.  Just to the right of the front entrance is a red call button to signal our on-site manager to come and get you for check in.  Once you have your room key, that same key will grant you access to the lobby through the night entrance.

Does Club Hotel serve breakfast?

The Club Hotel does not have a kitchen to be able to serve breakfast.  With our location in downtown Idaho Springs, there are several options for breakfast.  Main St Café is always open by 7 am with a large breakfast menu.  Edelweiss Pastry Shop is open by 8:30 am with fresh sweet and savory pastries.  For guests that like to sleep in on the weekends, MTN Prime has a great brunch menu.  All these options are within a one-minute walk from the Club Hotel.

I have never traveled to higher elevations before, what can I do to adjust to the altitude?

Travelers visiting from lower elevations typically feel some effects when over 5,000 feet above sea level. Those symptoms can become more acute when they go over 8,000 feet.  Club Hotel, at 7,500 feet, is the perfect place to acclimate to the elevation. You may notice:

1. Mild headache
2. Fatigue
3. Light dizziness or vertigo
4. Restless sleep

This is normal and temporary.  Day 1 at elevation we recommend to hydrate early and often, take a short walk around downtown Idaho Springs, and get a good night sleep that first night.  Staying at the Club Hotel the night before you tackle any big activities will help you acclimate and have a better experience in the Colorado Rocky Mountains.  We have many guests that tried to tackle higher elevations quickly, that stayed at the Club Hotel to relieve high-altitude symptoms.  After one or two nights, they are ready to enjoy their time in the mountains.  Call us for more tips.
