Victor Hotel

A disappointing stay this time at 'The Victor Hotel'. In town for The SteamPunk Soirée. The room was subpar on cleanliness with expired food left in the refrigerator, dirty towels in the bathroom, and we were given a half of roll of toilet paper that did not last our two night stay. We stayed in #408 This room was noisy. The first night the floorboards vibrated . (Like a furnace was nearby.) Around midnight a loud clanging started in the front corner of the room as if some was taking a spoon to the floor lamp. That happened a few times throughout the night. Along with what sounded like water dripping from the ceiling on to the floor. That seemed to be the consistent noise throughout our stay. I would recommend earplugs for staying in room 408We went to The side Door restaurant in the hotel. We waited 25 minutes after being seated to have the bartender tell us their kitchen was closed.

We spent a week at this uniquely historic hotel, while visiting my sister in cripple creek. It looks like a ghost town, (but a friendly one) as it used to have between 12k-18k people at its gold mining peak, with only about 400 residents now. With all the whiny reviews, I can see why they do check-in over text lol Like others have said, great for introverts who simply want somewhere interesting and cozy to crash during their stay. Loved the vintage elevator, and all the Christmas lights. Also never ran out of hot water. One thing they could really improve on is the old carpet.. and our 4th floor room was as hot as a sauna when we arrived.. but was quite comfortable after turning down the radiators, humidifying the room, and cracking all the windows nearly the whole time to keep fresh air flow. (still warm enough) Otherwise the room was clean, plenty of tv channels, and bed was super cozy. Also recommended taking a short hike to see Rita the troll in Victor. Gorgeous views.. I enjoyed the bar food next door, and there's a good general store for basics.. (cans of oxygen help if you're not used to the elevation lol) but obviously plan to drive 8 min to Cripple Creek for most meals and such. #1 recommend the Irish casino restaurant, secondly The Creek restaurant. (And the ice castle was so much fun) Enjoy!

Great spot to stay if you're passing through. Tons of history and ghostly things. Older but clean and well maintained.

This hotel was such a gem! Our room was spacious and lovely, boasting high ceilings, vintage details throughout and a comfortable bed. The room had two individual heaters and we had it very warm in no time. The tv had limited cable and Netflix on it; there were also a few board games in the hallway for guests to use. Because of COVID, the check-in process was independent. I received a text the day before our trip with instructions for entry. The instructions were simple to understand and each door locks automatically after you close it. We felt very secure and comfortable. I woke up a few times in the night from hearing the pipes creaking and croaking, but I suppose that comes with the territory of an older building. Besides the pipes our stay was nice and quiet. The downstairs restaurant said the kitchen was closed at 6:30pm on a Saturday which was pretty disappointing, but we stumbled upon the Mining Claim restaurant next door and it was great.

The front desk "man" was actually a troll and barked at us that if we tried to check in early we would be fined $50/hour. Policy is policy but I don't need to be disrespected right off the bat. Would not recommend!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Victor Hotel this weekend. This time we stayed in room 406. I took full advantage of that beautiful clawfoot soaking tub. It was just the thing for these old bones after a day of walking around in mountains. Haha. We got to visit Rita the Troll! Let me tell you...she is magical. Walking through the town was fun. We bought a piece of art from a local gallery, did some antiquing, and we even got to see the Penguins practice hockey at the ice rink. Before checking out we had breakfast in the hotel's restaurant. The biscuits and homemade sausage gravy was so good!! We plan to come a couple more times this year for some of the events that are happening in victor, and you can bet we will be staying at the Victor Hotel.

Absolutely beautiful historic hotel! Beds were so comfortable and rooms nice and clean. We loved our stay here and will come back anytime we are in the Cripple Creek/Victor area! This hotel deserves 5 star...and a friendly staff!

The building itself is beautiful, no ghosts tho. A little attention to detail wold go a long way. Lobby was dirty, a day old cup of coffee sitting in the Kurig , no clean cups or coffee. Behind the front desk was just a storage room rather than a place to be welcomed.We asked for coffee for the room and were told it would be brought up, never came. The restaurant was closed so we had to go to Cripple Creek for dinner and breakfast. The carpet in the bedroom was ripped almost in two in the entrance. The sink was original, hot and cold faucets, interesting but could use an upgrade! None of of these things are hard or expensive to fix to improve guest experiences. Victor is a cool little town, including the lone lost cow wandering down the street mooing.

Nice place. The rooms are upgrade and clean. Beds were comfy.,The check in /out process was very hands off. You had to text a number to get a check in code , room number etc. Never met or saw anyone. Very strange and unwelcoming. The worst was when we got they we there we were told the elevator was broken. And that was the main reason we chose to stay here. We had a handicapped person in our party. It was a huge struggle to get her to the 3rd floor and down again. We got no apologies for not telling us before we arrived and no discount on the room, nothing. Very unprofessional and disappointing. The food at the restaurant was good and the waiter/bar tender was extremely nice. The lobby needs a remodel desperately. Overall our stay was OK but not sure we would stay here again.

THERE IS AN UNDISCLOSED STRICT NO PETS POLICY THAT THEY HIDE IN FINE PRINT, and do not disclose otherwise. Most national hotels allow for pets (hell, the BROWN PALACE in downtown Denver allows pets), and now I have to be out hundreds of dollars or impose upon friends and family to care for the pet on short notice.I have a crate-trained adult golden retriever. It will be more cost and effort to clean up after ME.Stay in Cripple Creek instead. What a joke in 2022.
