Quirky with a capitol Q! The outside looks like a nice old Victorian mansion. The inside is like your great grandmothers, with green carpeting and old furniture. AC did not work well, lucky to have fan in room. Bed comfortable. Shower head trickled water. Carl said he asked if I wanted him to change out the shower head and that I said it was ok.in fact, someone knocked at 5 pm when I was getting ready for dinner and said “housekeeping “- I said we r ok, because beds had already been made. After being out all day and coming back to inn at 11pm exhausted and thirsty, heard owner in kitchen, and asked if he had xtra water. The ensuing conversation was laughable as he insisted there were water bottles in my room. I told him we drank them earlier. He didn’t accept that. Then said they allot 2 water bottles per room /day. So I told him I would pay if he could get me a bottle. He reluctantly gave me one, and as I turned, uttered “jeez” under his breath. Breakfast- only offer one item. First morning- pancakes. I don’t particularly like pancakes and just had the fruit, which was good. He then said he always asked about “dietary restrictions “ and I should have said something. Mayb he doesn’t understate difference between restriction and preference. Having a choice would b nice. Cory was kind to make me scrambled eggs. owner was nice to have coffee ready for early risers, but beyond that , not very hospitable. For the price, I will stay elsewhere in future.

Thank you for your review, Helen!I find the Capitol Hill nothing near quirky, but rather “C” charming, clean, calm, and comfortable based on my reviews. The Inn holds true to the pictures on my website so please look at www.capitolhillmansion.com if you have any questions. The green carpet is more of a rich color for the Richardson Romanesque style Mansion. I am an 8 room Inn, and we provide quality service to all our guests. When I knocked on your door, I was going to change the shower head. You said you did not need anything, and I do not do maintenance work while guests are in the room. I do apologize about the water, but it was at 11:00 p.m. at night. I am only an eight room Inn therefore the Inn office closes at 10:00 P.M. daily. My housekeeping provides water in each room daily. I always let guests know that if additional water is needed, they should provide it themselves. We offer a full gourmet entrée each morning and we also offer vegetarian and vegan options. We do only offer a menu option, but we accommodated guest needs as requested. Each day I send an email requesting guests’ food restrictions so I can plan around breakfast and make sure their needs are met. Preference is like a choice of selections on a menu! Again, I offer a daily entrée to my guests each morning… a “set menu” with food restricted options to accommodate the guests whether vegetarian or vegan.

Beautiful home. Living in history. Our room had a private balcony that we loved. Room was on the 3rd floor so lots of stairs. Incredible breakfast. Best of our whole vacation! We had to miss breakfast the 2nd morning to catch our flight. We had to leave at 7:15 and breakfast did not start until 7:30. It smelled so good though…

10/10 - Truly an amazing stay.
This is the only place we will ever want to book when we visit Denver. Amazing service, amazing breakfast, friendly and helpful, kind staff. There is no beating this place: neighborhood walkability, the room (complimentary water bottles and soft drinks), the experience. Everything was absolutely PERFECT. Carl (owner/operator) was super friendly and had great recs when we needed them. Do. not. miss. out. Book them now.

We stayed in the Snowlovers Room, on the 3rd floor. Fortunately, we packed lightly for this short trip - as dragging a bunch of suit cases up & down the stairs would have been rough. This was our first experience with staying at a Bed & Breakfast, but it was exactly what one would expect. The food was delicious, and always served with a smile and a conversation. Excellent coffee, excellent indoor AND outdoor dining space (we experienced one of each, since it rained one evening). We had an issue with the toilet on our first flush, and there was an overflow (no, we didn't put anything down it that we shouldn't have...or too much). We called the Main Line & someone was there within 5 minutes knocking on the door to assist. Nice folks, great place, give it a shot if you're in Denver.

Lora,We are sorry you experienced an overflowed toilet during your stay. I appreciate the effort made to mitigate the situation. The historic Capitol Hill Mansion Bed and Breakfast, Snowlover room and its private 3rd floor patio is a favorite with guests. It makes me happy to read that my team made your emergency a top priority. I do hope you enjoyed your complimentary bottle of wine!

Cozy
Compare it to our bed and breakfast on the first night of our trip this was wayyyyyy cozier and we had our own bathroom. Considering how old this building is the room is air conditioned and kept us comfortable. The breakfast is as amazing and so was Bailey who was serving us breakfast. The bedrooms were nice clean and neat but don’t expect the beds to be super comfortable. However they are not squeaky either and have personality (finally non white sheets ) Also Getting a hold of them isn’t the easiest as you need to leave voicemails like a typical household but they do make the check in process very easy
