This was our second year staying at this property for NYE, check in was smooth, the rooms are so charming and the staff super friendly. They had snacks in the bar on NYE and the continental breakfast has a fair number of options.

Exquisite comfort
We had such a lovely and memorable vacation weekend in Cripple Creek, and it was all thanks to the incredible hospitality of the owners and staff at Hotel St. Nicholas. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcomed and cared for. The hotel is a beautiful blend of history and comfort—each room thoughtfully renovated to reflect the charm of its past while offering all the modern touches you need for a relaxing stay.
The atmosphere was peaceful and quiet, which made it the perfect place for us to unwind, read, and truly relax. The owners were not only gracious hosts but genuinely kind people who went out of their way to make sure our stay was special. Their warmth and attention to detail created an experience we won’t forget.
Thank you for giving us such a peaceful, restorative weekend. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

The property has a very interesting history and the staff were wonderful.
The Expedia listing billed it as a bed and breakfast. THe breakfast is more of a light continental breakfast.
