We stayed in the loft and loved every second of it. It’s such a great space for large groups. We did a friends trip and had a blast playing board games, cooking in the amazing kitchen. Beds were incredibly comfy! Bathrooms and the showers were so refreshing after a long day of skiing. The owners are the nicest people and their property managers are great! Highly recommend! Will stay again!!!

Expensive but truly enjoyable. Incredibly comfy beds with great duvets. We could not work out how to turn on the heater. Assumed broken (I'm an engineer). Great shower. The soap products that chose smell great. Fridge. Microwave. Wi-Fi was iffy so we just used cellular. Did not try the TV, which is supposed to be a smart TV. Loved the fluffy bath towels.

We stayed here decently for 2 nights and we really like the property overall but there were a couple concerns that kept us from giving it a 5 Star. First the positives: it is an older property that had been renovated and it was done very well!! Super cute rooms, modern decor. The kitchenette was great, included a dishwasher, large fridge, hot plates, plates and utensils, etc. We really liked our stay overall. We had 2 rooms, one standard 2 bed room and a family room with kitchenette and bunk room for the younger kiddos. The concern with the standard room is the pilot light on the heater kept going out and had to be relit several times over 2 days. The concern with the family room is the temperate but the other way. The room was extremely, uncomfortably hot. Those rooms are on the original boiler and they said that it is hard to regulate. Our room was over 80 degrees and we had to sleep with the window wide open in the single digits outside to make it somewhat comfortable inside. The staff was very nice and responsive when we called them about the pilot light. Again, overall we really like the property and recommend it.

The room was very clean and comfortable and the bed was great. The location could not be better. We have two suggestions: 1. Provide heating in the floors because they were cold when we arrived. 2. Repair the fan in the heater. It impacted metal on each rotation which required us to turn off the fan to stop the noise. Room 5.

Nicely renovated older motel in downtown Leadville. All of the main businesses, restaurants, and key locations (i.e. start/finish line of some of the big races) are within easy walking distance.Check in time is not flexible--the electronic lock is on a timed system and your key code won't work before 4 pm. I was able to visit some local businesses while I waited and although I didn't ask first, it seemed that parking in front of my room before check in was OK.The room is comfortable, and storage space is not only above average but well thought-out for a place that caters to outdoor athletes. There is plenty of hanging space as well as cubbies for gear. I also liked the literary selections, which are themed toward Leadville's outdoorsy vibe. Some of the books are even available for direct purchase (added to your room bill) which is a nice touch if someone doesn't have a chance to get to the local (excellent) book store or the gear shop across the street.Great stay overall!

Super easy to find and directions were very easy to follow. Right off of Harrison so it was noisy all night long. We brought our dogs and they enjoyed the space but location for them to use the restroom wasn’t too close by. Would stay here again though!

I stayed at The Timberline for 2 nights this week and it did not disappoint. They were very responsive with any questions I had. The bed was amazing, the bedding and bathroom linens were top notch. I was in town for a wedding, so for me the only drawback was that there was not a full length mirror to check out my outfit. But overall the stay was perfect! Thank you, I had a wonderful time in Leadville!

Loved this place. High quality coffee and toiletries. Even though it was close to the street, it was very quiet.
