The Boulderado Mystery Tour
The Boulderado Mystery Tour walks you through the Hotel Boulderado, the 1909 landmark in downtown Boulder, in search of its stranger stories. A guide leads you through the lobby under the stained-glass canopy, up the cantilevered staircase, and into the corridors where staff and guests have reported odd happenings over more than a century. Expect history and hauntings woven together, with specific rooms, dates, and names rather than vague spookiness.
The hotel itself is the draw: it opened in 1909 and kept its original Italianate-era detailing, from the cherrywood staircase to the glass ceiling. The tour reads the building as a record of Boulder's past, tracing the people who passed through and the events that gave rise to its lore. At $15 to $25 per person, it's a short, centrally located outing that fits easily into a downtown afternoon.
The route stays walkable and indoors, making it an accessible way to see one of Boulder's oldest operating buildings without a long commitment.
