Hotel St Nicholas

The Hotel St Nicholas, named after the gold rush-era hospital that formerly occupied its location, is a bed and breakfast inn with roots dating back to 1898. The Catholic Sisters of Mercy constructed it as the first dedicated general hospital to serve Cripple Creek, Colorado, and the surrounding area during the 1890s gold rush. The hotel is listed on the National Historic Register. It is 90 km from Colorado Springs.

Guest Room Features

The hotel rooms offer a tea and coffee maker, a wardrobe, parquet or carpeted floors, and a flat-screen TV. Mountain views and chocolate are provided in some rooms. Bathrooms include a bath, a shower, and free toiletries. Some rooms have an attached sitting porch or balcony and space for an additional roll-away bed. A queen bedroom features a sink and mirror inside and a private bath across the hall.

Dining and Tavern

A continental breakfast is served from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. in the breakfast room. Guests can complete a menu of prepackaged items to be ready at 7:30. The Boiler Room Tavern is located on the lower level.

Things to Do

Huddart's original drawings for the St Nicholas from 1896 are displayed in the main lobby. Guests can explore Cripple Creek and Victor with a guide. Nearby landmarks include Victor's Gold Camp Ag & Mining Museum (5.5 km), Old Homestead House Museum (0.5 km), and Little Grouse Mountain Trailhead (0.5 km).

Hotel Views

The Hotel St Nicholas provides a panoramic view of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and downtown Cripple Creek. The second-floor corner rooms feature three windows with views of the town and hillside.

“Hotel St Nicholas stands out in Cripple Creek for its commitment to preserving local history and art; that alone makes it worth a visit. The updated rooms retain their Victorian charm, and the mountain views are exceptional. As an editor, I especially appreciate the personalized touch from the owners, who clearly love sharing their hotel's stories.”
