Patterson Inn

My husband and I stayed at the Patterson Inn for two nights to celebrate his birthday. We chose the Patterson for it's location (an easy walk to the Denver Art Museum, Cheeseman Park, the State Capitol), and because it had been recommended by a friend. They were very communicative prior to our trip and each room reserves a breakfast time, as the included breakfasts are cooked fresh for each guest. Parking is free in front or at a nearby lot.||The historic building is lovely with slightly creaky floors, and the room was comfortable, tasteful, with an excellent mattress, linens, bathrobes, and a lovely en suite bathroom. You can access your TV/movie accounts and there was a complementary glass of wine from the tavern next door (which serves small plates and delicious cocktails). We were also given a glass of prosecco and chocolates to celebrate the birthday.||The staff were super, especially the chef, who is a tremendous host and clearly takes pride in his job. The breakfasts were great, with the choice of a savory or sweet dish each day (so we got both and shared for the best of both worlds).||Overall we had a lovely stay and hope to return. We highly recommend the Patterson Inn for a relaxing and high quality experience.

Patterson Inn is the only place I will stay when visiting Denver. My husband and I are discerning travelers who appreciate top notch service and luxury so we normally book high end hotel chains to get that. Taking a friend’s recommendation we booked a B and B in a gorgeous historic mansion in the heart of the city…restaurants, bars are a short walk, or Uber trip away. We stayed for three nights/headed up to the mountains and could not wait to return to the Patterson … so we cancelled our stay at luxe chain hotel upon return.|We found the staff so engaging, friendly and thoughtful. We were treated like royalty and you just can’t get that at even the highest end hotel chains. ||We were contacted us by phone a week prior to our stay to ask us if we had any dietary preferences for breakfast. Im gluten free so each morning we were welcomed with a choice of house made decadent delicious breakfast w/baked gluten-free breads. Next morning I asked if they had cottage cheese and fresh fruit. They don’t normally serve cottage cheese. However, the chef went out and bought some just for me and served it with fresh fruits…that kind of individual service you just can’t get a large 5 star hotel. Chris, the owner provided a tour and history of the mansion. He also served as a bartender at the 12 spirits Tavern and mixed a few specialty, cocktails, and was highly engaging. Chef Brandon was top notch and front desk staff were kind friendly and so helpful!|Surprising value for|Fabulous location.|Excellent room/suite with comfortable bed and high-end linens |Amenities, like free breakfast and complementary wine |Free parking|quite a value compared to even a mediocre chain hotel

We loved staying at the Patterson Inn. The place is historic and well-maintained. The breakfast is delicious and the chef, Brandon, was super friendly and accommodating. Our room was well thought out with all the necessary amenities. We will definitely be back here if we are in the Denver area again!

Beautiful, historic building. Friendly staff. The owner is present and engaging. He gave us all kinds of suggestions and shared some of the interesting history of the building. Breakfast was great. Our room was great. The bathroom was updated and nice and clean. We'll be staying here every time we're in Denver. Highly recommend.

What a great little home owned inn. If you want a big corporate hotel, skip this. If you want very comfortable bedding, beautiful 125 year old architecture, the best breakfast freshly made and a great small bar, this is your place. Supposedly they have ghosts , but none visited me. I love finding hidden gems and this is certainly a place I will come back to.

The Patterson Inn is an awesome place to stay. Yes, it is an older venue, so expect squeaky floorboards and doors that are a little wonky. We were told it is haunted, but if it is, the ghosts must be pretty subtle. The staff is AWESOME and very courteous. The attached lounge/bar is first class, so definitely get a night cap.

Booked this hotel for a romantic getaway. It was so far from what we expected. This hotel is poorly run and I would avoid it at all costs - especially for the high prices that they charge. The staff are unhelpful and the ownership does almost nothing to resolve guest issues. They act as if they are completely uninterested in customer service. The only reason this is a two star review instead of a one star is because of the woman who works the front desk on the evening shift - she was very professional and helpful.

My wife and I stayed one night at this historical Hotel. We were upset because we got to the property later than we expected and didn't experience this property the way we wanted to if you're into historical hotels this place checks off all the boxes. Our room the Praque was beautiful loved the claw tub!!! We were escorted in by a gentleman that was hanging out side the tavern connected to the inn found out he was the owner showing the care and service that he places in his hotel and Erica the receptionist was so helpful she was so focused on our needs that we had enough pillows brought us plates utensils glasses ice even warmed up our food making sure we enjoyed our 1 night. I promised my wife we will be back to enjoy this property again. Book this place you wont regret it!

We just stayed in The Library at the Patterson Inn, and we are certainly planning to return to repeat the experience. I'll try to keep this short: the Patterson Inn is a delightful boutique hotel with glorious original interiors that have been refurbished in a way that both honors the historical original and gives attention to the modern comforts people expect nowadays. So many small perfect details, storage everywhere in the room, good WiFi throughout, beautiful areas to relax, the on-site 12 Spirits bar, the great breakfasts served in a beautiful area and featuring made-from-scratch-on-site and local goods . . . and most of all the welcoming and helpful staff, who quickly feel like friends. (Cheers and so many thanks to owner Chris Chiari and innkeeper Steve.) And what a delightful neighborhood - safe, walkable, FUN, with all manner of entertaining things within an easy walk. The Library was large and SO comfortably appointed, with tons of storage, space heater and cooler and a great modern bathroom - just couldn't have been happier. On the haunting front - first of all, I'm not into this stuff. At all. But. When we unpacked, I'd left my (large, hardshell) suitcase on top of the luggage rack on the side by the entry door, and I'd put a large hardback book I was reading it dead square in the middle of it. Went to supper, had some drinks. Came back six hours later and my wife lay on the bed (on the side away from the entry) to check her messages. I was over at the desk by the windows (on the side away from the entry) plugging in my phone to charge. It had been maybe three minutes since we entered the room. THUMP! over by the entrance to the room. We looked at each other. We both said, "It wasn't me." I went over to look and . . . my big hardbound book was now lying on the floor about three feet from the suitcase on the luggage rack. Weird. Weird enough that we were seriously trying to figure out how it had fallen (there hadn't been an earthquake, no one was jumping around, it was totally still and getting later in the evening) and eventually one of us said, "Hey, what if it was the ghost?" Ha ha. Told the staff the next morning as kind of a ha-ha thing and they were remarkably unsurprised and gave every appearance of having heard this sort of thing a lot. It was weird to us, though. Anyway, forget about that - the Patterson Inn was a great stay for us, and we are really looking forward to a return. What we're up in air about is whether we want to stay again in The Library (which we loved) or check out another room.

We were looking forward to staying at the Patterson Inn, but were pretty disappointed in our stay. We were here for a girl's getaway and stayed four nights in the Cheshire suite. Overall the Inn seems to be lacking a lot of the touches that make for a nice stay and are often found in Inns. Pros- Building is beautiful and location is pretty good for restaurants, access to downtown and activities. Staff are, for the most part, very nice and helpful. Ricky, chef and Innkeeper for three of our mornings, was a standout. He was personable and helpful and a good chef! Water pressure/temp in the shower was excellent. This is not always the case in older buildings. Beds and pillows were very soft and comfortable. Cons- The entrance is not welcoming. You're greeted with brooms, mops, snow shovel, etc. No morning or afternoon coffee/tea service in the lobby and none in room. Many people like to have coffee or tea when they wake up. You'd have to go all the way to the lobby when the staff is there for breakfast and ask them for hot water or coffee. Many Inns have coffee/tea service in the morning and evening and the evening often includes a cookie or some such small snack. Having a single serve coffee maker in the rooms would be very nice. The hot/cold water dispensers on the floors do not work. We were told they are in the process of upgrading. This, as well as the lack of ice machines on the floors, means you have to trek to the lobby to get hot water or ice. The Inn has no place to sit and relax that is not right outside someone's room (Gallery pictures of main floor show seating that is no longer there). Given that there is not seating in the rooms there is no place to relax and read/play games. The bar is really not set up for this and gallery pictures of bar show lounge seating that is no longer available. The web listed happy hour does not exist. We were told it had been discontinued. We were given one drink coupon (house canned beer or wine) apiece, for a four night stay, to use in the bar. Not four drink tickets. One. Cheshire: The Website lists the suite as having a steam shower. I was looking forward to using it. There is no steam shower. The website shows a small fridge in the room. There is no fridge. No place to sit in the suite other than a desk chair and a small chaise lounge for one person. There was no remote control for the TV is smaller bedroom. I called the front desk and was told a previous guest inadvertently took it with them and they were waiting to get it back. Perhaps they should try a universal remote? I went to use the oscillating fan in the smaller bedroom in the evening. It was filthy. I'd already asked about hot/cold water dispenser, happy hour and remote control I was not in the mood to call the front desk, yet again. The suite is not well suited for two couples for more than one, maybe two nights. Closet space is limited as is bathroom counter space. Overall misses: The bar was a letdown. We used our drink tickets for a $9 glass of wine (very short pour) and a $4 Sprite. There were four guests in the bar, all over 50, but the bartender was playing some discordant rap music at a volume that did not make you want to hang around and relax. The chef the first day seemed to not want to be there. No introduction, so I don't know his name. He was gruff and monosyllabic. My friend asked for hot tea and sweetener . He brought a cup of hot water with a tea bag. No spoon and no spoon "bowl". Really? She used her knife to stir her tea. She had to ask twice for sweetener. Early breakfast (prior to breakfast hours due to a mid-morning flight) was a small, cold muffin made, at least, the day before. I get they can't do a breakfast item to go, but it would be nice to have what other places have supplied such as a small container of yogurt, piece of fruit, etc. There are two signs in the breakfast room pointing out that tips are appreciated, plus a card in the room. I wish the breakfast was more than just the one item. Even just a small bowl of yogurt to start would be a great addition. I am fine with an historic Inn that does not have all the bells and whistle. I dislike being mislead as to what is available and the standards seem to not be that high for the Patterson.

We will choose to stay at the Patterson in the future. The house is 1 of a kind beautiful and the staff is nothing short of accommodating. Huge hat tip to Chef Duck who provided the most exciting thing we had every day, Breakfast. I'm not kidding when I say this guy has got it going on! His food is AMAZING! The room we stayed in, the Vanderbilt, is a large corner room, with a very friendly maternal spirit (oh yeah, it's haunted! ) And a king size bed, and the most adorable soaking tub. We were quite happy and cozy there and look forward to visiting again!

A truly wonderful property overshadowed only by the hospitality of the staff and owner. The high point for anyone who has ever experienced (or been subjected to) a complimentary breakfast was the phenomenal breakfast created by the innkeeper and chef. A seriously culinary event and typically our best meal of the day in Denver.

I was surprised how much I liked this place. It is still a work in progress, but I love that this old, historic building is being used for this purposed, and being kept alive. The woodwork inside is classic, beautiful, and worth the visit. The place has obviously been remodeled some since its Victorian days, but all the upgrades are done in good taste combining both modern comfort, and Victorian charm. The owners are good about keeping the classic "feel" of the Inn while using it as a bed and breakfast. We we went, we had almost unlimited access to the entire property, and were given a tour by the owner, Chris Chiari who was gracious enough to share what he knew about the history of the place, the history of its owners, and his plans for the future. I probably knew about the Election of 1876, but I never really connected how Thomas M. Patterson affected that election, even if it wasn't the way he wanted to. I also found out that Patterson was a volunteer in the Civil War, serving in the 11th Indiana Volunteers on an initial three month enlistment. It was interesting to me to find out that this unit was a "Zouave" unit, and fought at the battles of Fort Henry, Fort Donelson, and Shiloh, but Patterson isn't mentioned in any reports of that, and he probably didn't see action. He mustered out in 1862, and went to law school before his political ambition brought him to Denver. The nice thing about this "Castle," (the owner prefers to call it a "Castle," and I concur"), is it's prime location. It is very near what used to be Denver's Millionaire's Row, and is easy walking distance from many interesting mansions constructed around the same time. There is a lot of history in a small space. There are also a lot of good restaurants serving just about anything you would like to eat, including excellent vegan and vegetarian options. It's also easy walking distance to the Capitol, and did walk over there just as session was starting. The website notes "free parking," they don't say much about that. There are Three spaces right by the carriage house to the North side along 11th, but those fill up fast, and they are on first come, first served basis. There is a loading area right by those spaces on the street where you can drop off your luggage, and drive over to Grant Street to park for free. The Inn has six or more reserved spaces at the Grant Street lot, and the Inn will give you a placard to put in your window so you don't get towed. It's an easy walk back to the Inn. Note that the Bar has limited hours, and it is in the large carriage house to the West of the main building. The hours are 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., and you will be treated to great stories if Chris is behind the bar. The former bar in the basement is not open at this time, and it is being converted into a smoking den. While staying here, be sure to take the history walk that includes, (among others), The Cresswell House, The White-Peabody Mansion, The Pennborough, The Dunning-Benedict Mansion,The Sheedy Mansion, The Molly Brown House, The State Capitol, and The Charline," Each of these has great history attached, and this is possibly Denver's most historic neighborhood when you include Cheesman Park and the Botanical Gardens. I highly recommend this Inn/Castle for anyone, but especially those particularly interested in history, and Victorian architecture. There is an elevator for those who cannot climb the stairs, but I found the stairs to be more enjoyable, and an easy climb.

I think the most recent 3 star review by Jan C was not at all accurate to the amazing place that the Patterson Inn is. I honestly believe the review is very "Karen" like, petty, and nitpicking. My fiancé and i are from Minnesota visiting our friend, and we wanted to stay at The Patterson Inn, which was hands down the best! Before our arrival, like a week before, I believe we we're called and asked if we have any dietary restrictions and to book a time for us to have breakfast! It's so awesome and considerate! We booked the Cheshire room, and it was an amazing experience! Right as we walked in, we were very kindly greeted by West (the chef )and the smell of some fresh soft pretzels he was making( definitely recommend!). We were checked in and shown to our room, which was so beautiful! The room was so clean, and the beds were so soft and comfy! I didn't take photos, but the small attention to detail, like how the towels were folded into shell like form, was so beautiful. Around 4 pm is when the spirits tavern (downstairs bar) opens, and we absolutely love it! The drinks and appetizers were delicious, and we were given 3 free drink tickets that can go towards drinks, just not specialty drinks. Scott was our bartender, and he had some fun halloween themed music playing, which we liked a lot. I do believe that if the Karen that wrote the negative review would've asked nicely for whoever to change the music or turn it down, they would've. Overall, I will be back to the Patterson Inn! The negative review I saw does not reflect the experience that you get there at all! Communication with staff is key. They are not mind readers. I feel if I went to the staff, if I needed anything, they would've done what they could to get me what I wanted or accommodate to any of my needs or requests. I'm already so excited to stay here again, my next vacation!

Really enjoyed our stay, accommodations were clean and spacious and staff was warm and friendly

Absolutely the best B&B/hotel experience that I could have imagined! My husband and I came here for a Christmas time stay taking the Amtrak in from California. Our train was delayed by 5 hours so we got in extremely late and The Inn had codes,keys, parking passes and such all ready for us. I called To let Them know we would be in very late and Wes answered and was so nice and accommodating. He said he would send me a text by 2 pm with instructions on getting inside after check in hours. And at 2 pm a very perfect text came indeed! Wes is amazing. He's the perfect host, a perfect blend of engaging, respectful, attentive but not overbearing...also very laidback! We had some extra snacks we didn't eat and stored them in the fridge in the kitchen. We let Wes know this in the morning and he was very nice about it. Examples like this are what really made us feel like I was staying at a friends house rather than a corporate hotel. The rooms are stunning and have beautiful decor and high ceilings. They provide a fan and heater so we were very comfortable. My husband has occasional issues sleeping, but we both slept extremely comfortable in the huge cozy bed! This could also be due to the great cocktails we consumed in the super cool downstairs bar each evening! The owner, Chris, is also the bartender-and he is wonderful! We had great chats with him and he even gave us tips on things to do while in the neighborhood. One of the best parts off the Patterson are the gourmet breakfasts that Wes cooks each morning. They offer one savory and one sweet option each day. My husband and I got the savory breakfast for 3 mornings and couldn't believe how good they were! Better than any trendy brunch spot for sure! During the meal, Wes came by every now and then to check on us, but not in a way that was overly done and annoying. People say that this place Is haunted, but we got a very happy, Peaceful vibe from it! We felt such vibes in every part of the mansion. All the other guests were very quiet and kind too. I took a few calls out in the foyer and felt very much at home. All and all, I highly Recommend staying here. It's in the perfect location to walk it drive anywhere fun within a few minutes. I can't imagine staying anywhere else while in Denver!

If you are considering staying at the Patterson Inn, do it! The owner Chris is incredible and the team he has assembled and the direction they are taking this fantastic establishment is amazing. Scott, Erica and Phoebe went above and beyond to make our honeymoon more special then we ever thought was possible. Wes and Mary make the most delicious breakfast options you will have each morning! We stayed in the DaVinci room with the private balcony and it was perfect in so many regards. We can't wait to come back to the Patterson Inn the next time we get to Denver as a couple. The location is great, the neighborhood is clean but the facility and staff are the stars of our stay. Thank you again to everyone at the Patterson who helped make our honeymoon such a fantastic experience we will cherish forever!

A luxury property with a storied history and an amenable staff. This tiny castle in the heart of urban Denver has the unique distinction of being the only 420 friendly location of its kind. With an attached speakeasy style bar and a soon to be open cannabis only lounge, it's hard to say what more you could ask of this historic Midwestern jewel.

Had a wonderful stay at Patterson inn ! Check in was quick and easy, the room was beautiful and clean. The customer service was amazing as well. Evenings they have happy hour for guest which is free wine. Mornings there is complimentary home cooked breakfast that was 10/10. The bed was soooo comfortable I didn't want to wake up. They say a room is "haunted " it's a historic house. Just beautiful

I was super worried about staying here because it's a bed and breakfast so I imagined frequent, awkward encounters with the staff but that didn't happen. The staff is hip, super friendly, down to earth and are truly hospitality professionals. We spent some evenings in the spirits bar downstairs chatting it up with the staff, other locals, and other guests which was awesome. Breakfast was also great every morning. Chef Wes made amazing food. When there was a meat option that we wanted, he was happy to just take the sausage or bacon off for us. The lemon pancakes with cornflakes are to kill for. The room was elegant and comfortable. Highly recommend staying here. Kudos to Erica and Scott for making our stay so wonderful.

We loved our stay at the Patterson Inn. We just checked out of the Antoinette suite. Breakfast in the morning was wonderful and the bed was the comfiest I've ever slept in. We didn't want to leave!! Thank you for a great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Patterson Inn. How many times do you get to stay in a historic landmark. One of the few hotels that we have stayed in that we would want to stay in again. We were in the Da Vinci room on the lobby level. It was HUGE with nice high ceilings and impeccably decorated. Lots of beautiful stained glass-the curtains don't go all the way up, so if you're sensitive to light you might want to bring a sleep mask if morning light bugs you. There is a very large patio with a screen door that looks out to the garden & sidewalk...so you can have some fresh air coming in if you want. There is no AC, but fans and a heater are provided...we didn't use either. The bathroom was quite large & had a big tub with good water pressure. Breakfast is included with your room..sweet & savory option. The lemon cornflake pancakes were delish...biscuits & gravy with eggs was the other choice. The 12 Spirits Tavern is downstairs. Very laid back. They give you tickets, but that is only good for wine or beer. We were on the floor above it, so you could hear music & voices...however, they close at 9 so it didn't bother us sleeping, etc. We'd definitely come back.

Everything was great, including the bar downstairs! (Bonus: We were there on a 'slow' Monday night, with only one other room reserved, so we had no problem getting one of the two onsite parking places, no matter what time we came and went.)

Just left for home in NYC after a wonderful four night stay at the Patterson. From check-in to departure, every need and concern was addressed fully and with great hospitality. Breakfasts were delicious and our room, The Biltmore, was spacious and comfortable. No "hauntings" noted during our stay. Kudos to both Scott and Erica for making our stay so memorable!

Fantastic! My family and I stayed twice, once on our way to Wichita to visit family, and again last night on our way back home to Cypress, CA. Beautiful building! Wonderful facilities! Excellent staff! Personable Owner! Considerable paranormal activities, just kidding, or am I? Mwah-ha-ha-ha... I would not hesitate to return. Big Shout Out of thanks to Susan (reception/hostess), Scott (manager?), Wes (chef), Wes' assistant chef, and also the owner Chris. Watch for monthly or weekly professional Magic Shows in Maggie's Pub (part of the hotel, not a public pub). My daughter was the only one of us not too tired to attend the inaugural show. When I walked outside to visit a convenience store the applause and laughter coming up the stairs was non-stop. When I returned half an hour later the applause and laughter was even louder. Check the schedule at Www.magicattheCastle.com

Great place - I have recommended this place to clients and they love it. It's a short walk or even faster cab ride to any place downtown. Also a great venue to host events. The staff is filled with pros who 'get it'

A unique hotel experience for sure! So far, the only exceptional stay that I've booked via Hotels.com... I'll break it down for you in a few bullet points, since most want the low-down when it comes to a hotel room. Pros: + HUGE room at a great value = No. 9 came in just under $200/night and it was pretty posh. Beautiful black and white striped accent wall with bright yellow pleather headboard and black chandeliers. Bathroom with claw foot tub, double sinks and dressing table. + Great location in Capitol Hill, within walking distance to a few great coffee shops, restaurants and just on the outskirts from downtown. + Flat screen TV on the wall with cable. + High-tech security system so guests can come and go at any hour with the proper access code at the two front doors. + Staying in a historic mansion with unique rooms beats a hotel any day! Cons: + This is a B&B, so be warned of couples everywhere! And I don't blame them, it would be a romantic getaway. But I was here for work and flying solo. + There was a slight expectation to hang out during breakfast in the morning wine hour in the afternoon. Wasn't interested. This is the one thing I don't like about B&B's - I meet new people every day, kind of want to keep to myself while out of town. + Walls are thin, so depending on your neighbor's understanding of "inside voices", you may have to hear their full conversations. Or as they scream down the hall to one another. Annoying! + Unlike a hotel, there's no 24-hour concierge/front desk staff. I checked out very early Sunday morning and just left my key (really a key, not a key card) at the empty front desk. Patterson Inn is very new, so if you find yourself in Denver for work or pleasure, I'd recommend staying here for a night. Unique and a great value.

This was a phenomenal stay! Gorgeous building, fantastic location, and a staff who goes above and beyond. Don't miss the wine hour, especially if you want a chance to hear some of the stories of this old house. I highly recommend this to anybody looking for an experience, not just a stay, in Denver.

This is a beautifully restored, romantic and reportedly haunted mansion. The owner is very hands-on and cares for every detail to make your stay memorable. This place is unlike any I've seen before and made my birthday celebration amazing! We will be back, hopefully soon. Thank you Chris!!!

It was just ok. The building is beautiful and rich with history, but it was overpriced. Our room had a balcony that was unusable due to construction. We were so disappointed as this was a main reason we chose The Royale room. There are only 3 parking spots on the hotel property. All other guests need to park a block and a half away in a city parking lot that is shared with the homeless. The ice machines were out of order. The rooms do not have thermostats, so when the staff leaves at 7 pm there is not a way to adjust the temperature. The morning that we checked out, we received an email that we would be charged for $55 for 3 pillowcases and a king sheet, as there were blood stains on them. This is ridiculous. I asked them to send pictures of the ruined sheets, but I have yet to receive them. At a total of $800 for 2 nights, we were very dissatisfied with The Patterson Inn. We've had better experiences for less money at other places in Denver.

Our small group of friends reserved three rooms SEVEN months in advance of our annual Haunted Weekend in October of 2018. We were so excited to stay at this historic -- and quite haunted -- bed and breakfast. Two weeks before our stay, we all received a voicemail telling us our reservation "wouldn't honored due to business reasons." While we collectively have never heard of such an outrageous decision, the Patterson didn't think twice about it. Reading some recent reviews, this appears to be a trend. You should think twice about staying here.

Charming, but incredibly fussy. Rocky experience from beginning to end. My stay at the Patterson once again confirmed for me that bed & breakfasts really aren't worth the hassle. Not recommended.

This B&B is incredible. Michelle and Susan are so welcoming and they do so much to try and make you feel at home. I particularly loved the breakfasts in the morning (gourmet, healthy, and DELICIOUS). I also loved the happy hour down in their "Pub" from 5-6 in the evening. They served a great Pinot Noir and little snacks. We stayed for 3 nights in the Library Room, which was really spacious and had a giant tub. I felt like I was staying at a luxury spa when I was in there. The location is perfect. You are so close to Capitol Hill and downtown. Also conveniently located to so many restaurants, bars, and a Whole Foods. Though it was a business trip, my husand and 1.5 year old daughter came with me and they enjoyed it as much as I did. This is my new favorite spot in Denver and we will be back. Couldn't recommend it more highly!

There is no way you could possibly have a better stay than at the Patterson Inn. We just had the whole place for a wedding and it was PERFECT. The Inn has a warm and open feel. All the rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable. Big shout out for the bed and pillows! Rates were fair and the staff are terrific in every way. Each staff member is personally interested in the guest and their stay. Very nice. If you like breakfast, this is the place. Patty cooks a breakfast that is over the top excellent. Lots of variety and they are more than willing to help with any dietary restrictions. Not only will well be back, but I can't imagine staying anywhere else in Denver!

One of the best decisions for my wedding was deciding to take my bride here the night of the wedding. Such a beautiful romantic place. They made accommodations to have everything set up because we were getting in way later than the check in time. We were given a code to get in the building and they had a key at the desk for us. We walked into our room and they had champagne waiting for us. The next morning, the staff was so nice and accommodating. The food was fantastic as well. The homemade granola is soooo good. They even gave us the recipe for it. Stay here!

Wow! This place is a gem to stay at. If you love historic buildings, this is the hotel for you. Great breakfast in the morning, clean rooms, wonderful service, good prices...what more could you ask for?! Skip the typical hotel and stay somewhere you will remember for years to come!

Amazing bed and breakfast and a great experience. We stayed in the prague for two nights, it had a very comfortable bed and a cute bathtub. Scott took really good care of us and made delicious breakfast! We loved it here and will definitely be back.

This was our first visit to the Patterson Inn, and it will not be our last. We had "The Prague" room, which is a gothic inspired room on the top floor with gigantic vaulted ceilings, huge bathroom, and an out of this world carved wood 4 post bed. The whole experience was booked online without the need for any person-to-person interaction which is a big plus. I like all records to be email/web-pages and this was like booking any major chain hotel, hassle free and it just worked. The second we walked into the Patterson Inn, the hostess greeted us with smiles and was very friendly. We checked in instantly and were shown to our room. The services were explained very well, but unfortunately we could not take part in the dinner, wine, and cheese for the evening because we had reservations elsewhere. There was hot apple cider brewing in the dining room for any guest, and there was tea as well. The next morning we did have the complimentary breakfast and it was superb. We had french toast and quiche, both were excellent. We cleaned our plates. The building is secured with 2 digital locks with key codes and it is very nice. The only downside is that parking on the street can be a pain. After nightfall, when we returned we had to park a couple blocks away and walk. That's fine, but something to be mindful of. There is a loading/unloading zone directly infront of the hotel which we made use of upon exit to load up the car even though we parked blocks away overnight. Because every room is different, I would expect the quality of the rooms to differ as well. For instance there are 2 rooms on the first floor right by the door which I would guess (no proof, did not stay in them) would be noisy. One I think is the Antoinette room. The building is old and historic looking/feeling so the hardwood creaks and makes clacking noises like it should. Our room was on the top floor with no neighbours to either side or above. Only below and then across the hall to the Cheshire room. We never heard anyone else. The room was spotless, everything from the pictures hanging on the wall being dust free to the immaculate bathtub and neatly made bed. Very good service. The only thing I marked to 3 stars, is the value. I feel 3 stars is average value, and for the price per night we paid I expect this kind of quality. It did not disappoint at all, and I will stay there again without any doubt. But it is not a magical place with low prices and superb service. It is a diamond with high prices and superb service. Exactly what you would expect for a room at that price. Definitely stay here. Check out their website to look at the difference in rooms, they have more information and a back story for each of them. Definitely recommended.

Serendipitous is how I would describe finding this utterly charming historic inn on Capitol Hill in Denver. My suite had the most luxuriously comfortable bed & I slept like a princess. Both the Inn Keeper Susan who is a true historian & the convivial General Manager Michelle have a joie de vivre & passion for their craft...staying at The Patterson was simply delightful in every way. In the hustle & bustle of today's bigger, better, best world there is something to be said for truly delivering on an exemplary customer experiences and The Patterson does not disappoint - it is a bespoke experience, from the tea & home made finger print cookies waiting for me at tea time after my meetings or the breakfast made from scratch with perfect poached eggs on toast - to serve an Irish American the perfect poached egg - I was in heaven. The hotel is utterly charming as is the dedicated & knowledgeable staff. So whether your travels take you to Denver for business or pleasure or you're looking to scratch an itch of nostalgia and yesteryear in a perfect Denver staycation - look no further....

Had traveled to Denver to elope with my fiance and Christopher hooked it up!!! He was just as excited as I was to be married and he took the time to set up our room with champagne, wine and roses. All with a one day notice of calling in reservation. Thank you very much!! Upon check-in, Christopher gave us a tour of the place and laid down the history. Very interesting!! He offered our party of four a couple drinks at the bar downstairs and even drove us downtown to continue with our celebration. Great staff and breakfast upon check- out as well. Three thumbs up!! ;-)

This place is a marvel of history and mystery. The loveliest place to stay in Denver. Right in downtown close to everything. You must check it out... not only will you love it, you will remember it for the rest of your life... spooky history and great staff!!

Absolutely charming. As a big fan of Downton Abbey, the Victorian Era, and antiques, this was just heaven for me. The building is beautifully and painstakingly renovated to fit with the modern needs and the nostalgic past. The inn is truly an escape from the ordinary. Having stayed in many hotels and inns across the world, I can truly say that this was true gem. Each room is themed, ranging from the tongue-in-cheek Clue (board game) room, to the Marie Antoinette room, to the James Bond room, each is a little haven that is sure to delight. The rooms all have flat screen TVs and free wifi for those who aren't quite willing to revert to an earlier, quieter time. We stayed in the Gusteau- the modern-French room with the lovely claw-foot tub. The bed was huge, piled high with down comforters pillows- and just divine. Unlike many other B&Bs, Patterson has taken care to have a very modern and streamline look, uncluttered with suffocating rose prints and knick-knacks. Both men and women would enjoy this inn, as there are both classically feminine and masculine skewing rooms. The common areas are spotless and beautifully maintained. The arrival area has a very secure double door system, and all the rooms are filled with gorgeous vintage pieces. The bar in the basement is retrofitted with the vintage wood bar from the now closed Burnsley All-Suite Hotel. The photographs of the previous owners and historical properties really adds in a feeling of the vibrant history that has flowed through the house. Breakfast was entirely a delight. The inn keepers took special care to ask about the food that was served and remembered which beverages I enjoyed. The quiche and french toast I ate were amazing. The sideboard also held granola, yogurt, fruit, charcuterie and fresh breads. I saw some prior guests mention that their portions were small, but I felt like it was more than adequate. I'm absolutely certain that the inn keeper would have given seconds and thirds if asked! They took such good care of us! Perhaps the most unique part was the expectation for community. Mingling and talking amongst the guests was encouraged, and even though the occupancy was low during our stay, we still enjoyed the socialization. This is definitely not a place to jet off and be secluded. That's certainly a consideration if you are traveling for business and don't enjoy unprovoked conversations. However, those who like the B&B attitude will certainly enjoy the quality of company here. In addition to breakfast, there is also a complementary wine hour in the stately bar. The evening we partook there were small snacks and both a bottle of white and red available. Each evening fresh cookies were laid out as well- a great way to end the evening. There were also 3 off-street parking spaces available at the inn. We never had an issue parking while we were there, but I can see that a high-occupancy time might frustrate drivers. VERDICT: If you love the by-gone era, you will fall in love with the Patterson. From each charming door knob, to each elegant chandelier, your heart will remember the times where you dreamed to be a Princess in a castle. Take the ones you love most dearly here and they will be absolutely pampered and delighted. Stay for several days to enjoy the full charm.

Stayed in the Royale!! PRIVATE BALCONY!!! Wine hour in the afternoon was nice, too. Not sure we would have had as nice of a time if we stayed in the Antoinette room, which is directly next to the front door of the building. Breakfast was a ham/onion/apple/brie fritatta which was amazing. MY wife got vanilla waffles w/blueberry compote. Both were fantastic with plenty of options for coffee/tea. Staff was amazing, bringing our luggage up while we explored Denver, and buying us a bottle of bubbles for our wedding! We'll be back.

I was in town for my niece's wedding and chose The Patterson Inn on my sister's recommendation. What a wonderful experience! Beautifully decorated room with impeccable details, warm and friendly service, great cocktails and a lavish breakfast! I highly recommend The Paterson Inn! Thank you for making a joyous event into a fantastic getaway weekend!

This lovely place was an absolute joy to stay in. The room was just as comfortable as it is beautiful, and spotless. Breakfast was hot and delicious each morning, in a warm and friendly room. But it was really the service that sets this place apart. Manager Michelle saw to our every comfort, and made this a trip we will never forget.

Surprisingly charming find in an old neighborhood. Loved the mansion. We stayed in Royale room, great balcony attached, great bed. Towels a little scratchy n a turn down service would get the 5 stars. Nice breakfast. We missed the free wine hour, but love the idea. Some reports of it being 'haunted' but we slept thru any ghosts. Highly recommend.

We stayed in the Antoinette room. It was beautiful, service was great, complimentary food/drinks were amazing. However, my boyfriend spooked me out by reading the haunted stories about this place, but it was fine. :)

Very comfortable, very friendly staff, great location, nicely appointed rooms and a delicious breakfast - what's not to like! Old World charm with modern conveniences. Great place for business travelers or weekenders like us!

My husband and I just spent an evening here and had a wonderful time. Michelle is exceptional in all she does from the moment of check in to complimentary champagne to ring in the new year to the lovely breakfast in the morning--we were able to relax and enjoy every moment. Not to mention the character of the Inn! Our room was so beautiful and cozy. Thanks again! We will be back!

Came here for our honeymoon. Beautiful quiet and within walking distance to a bunch of shops and places to eat. Parking is not very good but that was the only issue we had.

I have to say this ranks as quite possibly the best hotel stays I've ever experienced. My team and I were staying in Denver, CO for a big conference and wouldn't normally have booked a bed and breakfast but everything within a 3 mile radius was sold out. It turns out we ended up being the lucky ones! The Patterson Inn is just what we needed after a busy day at the conference. The entire staff treated us as if we were in their own home and they really took customer service to an entirely new level. I felt like I was staying in a family friend's estate. There are only 9 rooms and each one of them has a unique theme. Since there were five of us staying, we had the opportunity to see quite a few of the rooms they had to offer. Some of my favorites were the Antoinette, the Gusteau and for a more modern, fun theme - The No.9. I highly suggest this Inn to anyone in the area. In fact, I've been suggesting people go to Denver just to experience the Patterson Inn.

Our stay at the Patterson Inn on our wedding night was less than ideal. The hubs and I are pretty low maintenance, and as nonprofit workers, we would rarely ever pay almost $300 a night for lodging. However, given that it was our wedding night, we decided to splurge and the Patterson Inn seemed to fit our style and needs for our special night. We stayed in the Royale Room. First, when we arrived at 11:30pm, we were locked out of our room and had to phone the owner for assistance. No one left a key for us, even though they knew we were arriving late. Needless to say, after a very, very long day, it was an inconvenience to wait 20+ minutes to get in our room. A minor oversight on the part of the staff, but a big deal to us because we were exhausted and it dampened the glow from a wonderful wedding. Once we got in the room, we were delighted at the amenities and the size of the room. However, once we got ready to go to sleep and turned off the light, we saw the huge EXIT sign glowing bright green just feet from the bed. The EXIT sign was next to the door to the balcony, which had a stairwell to ground level. This horrible light was so bright, and we could not find a way to turn it off. So we took towels and robes and covered the light. Again, an inconvenience, but nowhere in the room description or during our check in did anyone alert us to this 'quirk' of the room. When you pay almost $300 for a room, the last thing you need is a big, neon green light shining in your face. We would suggest either putting an optional curtain over the light or at least alerting guests of the light BEFORE they book the room. We definitely would have selected another room had we known about the light. We have stayed in other hotels/B&Bs with balconies with stairwells, and none of them have ever had such an intrusive light in the room. Last, we had no hot water in the room. When we called the front desk, the gal said, "Oh, well that's never happened in all of the time that we've been open." My response: "Well, it's happening now, so can you get someone up here to check it." The owner ultimately gave us keys to the room across the hall, and we had to walk across the hallway in our robes to shower. Again, a minor inconvenience that was the fault of no one, but combined with the other inconveniences, we had had enough by that point. Our biggest complaint is that no one at the Patterson Inn even apologized for our the cumulative issues during our 12 short hours at the B&B. We got an "okay, thanks! Bye!" when we left. Sometimes an apology or a gesture goes a long way, but we did not receive such an apology. We expected much more from an establishment such as the Patterson, especially since we paid such a high price for the room. All in all, we were quite disappointed with our stay at the Patterson, and frankly, we will not likely take our business there again or recommend it to any of our friends and family. I am sure that others have had a lovely experience at the Patterson, as it truly is a lovely place. But in this instance, we cannot in good faith recommend the Patterson to others. The Inn gets 2 stars instead of 1 because (1) they let us drop our bags off earlier in the day, and (2) it's a beautiful establishment.

We stayed at the Patterson Inn for a night in their Antoinette Room, which was one of the most beautiful rooms I have ever stayed in. The Inn is immaculately clean, incredibly charming, and newly renovated. I highly recommend the Inn for travelers or those in Denver looking for a night out!

As beautiful as the Inn was, it was phenomenally creepy. My wife and I stayed in the Royale room, and nearly the moment we walked in to the hotel, we could feel negative energy. So many people are giving this hotel a great rating, and it is hard to argue that it isn't gorgeous. There is also a ton of historic charm to it, but the energy there is not so charming. My wife was unable to shower because the bathroom had a just plain scary feeling to it. I could not make it all the way up the stairs to the third floor just to look around, because I felt as though I was walking into a wall of negative feelings that demanded my retreat. Also, the carriage house has a cellar that nobody should ever walk into. I can't even describe the feeling there. It was not nice at all. Whether or not the place is haunted, seems to be purely subjective. I can however, definitely attest to the way that my wife and I felt there. If you must go, visit during the day, don't even go into the carriage house, and don't sleep at the Inn.

We had our wedding reception at the Patterson Historic Inn in June and it was the most wonderful event. We got married in Vegas, but wanted to have a celebration with our family. The Patterson Inn was the best decision we made, other than deciding to get married of course. We rented the entire venue for the weekend, which allowed the majority of our families to stay there and get to know each other. By the end of the weekend our families had bonded and didn't want to leave the Patterson. Because the Patterson has so much built in character and has been beautifully remolded, we didn't have to spend much on decorating. The venue is gorgeous and our guests loved it. The staff was great to work with during the planning and flexible with details. They went out of their on the day of the event to make sure everything went off without a hitch. But mostly, they relieved all my stress as a bride that day. The morning after our event at breakfast (which was fabulous) my father in-law informed us that it was "the best wedding reception he had ever been too, hands down". I think that says it all. We would highly recommend the Patterson Inn to anyone for an event or just a night away. It's truly a magical place.

We chose the Patterson Inn as a location for our guests to stay with us for the weekend of our wedding. The entire inn was ours for the weekend, and it really felt like a big slumber party! Breakfast was amazing every morning, and the pub in the basement was the perfect place to hang out into the wee hours of the morning after our rehearsal dinner. The staff were on point at all times, the beds were SO PHENOMENAL, and the entire building felt cozy, comfortable, warm, and intimate. It was the perfect setting for our group. The interior decor of this renovated 19th century mansion is the perfect blend of original design and modern amenities, and it made for BEAUTIFUL photos of our wedding preparations. If I could give them 6 stars, I would.

Beautiful room, great breakfast, I wished I never had to leave. Great neighborhood and easy parking. I love this place.
