    This is a motel, not a hotel. We had a comfortable one night stay, but this property could use some updating. The location is amazing, offering a short walk to main street, where all the restaurants are. Rooms have microwave and fridge. Beds are comfortable. Parking is free. There is a complimentary breakfast, which is pretty good. There are two hot tubs on the property. I would like to acknowledge housekeeper Patty. She helped me find the ice machine, which is located to the right of the reception. There is also a vending machine and guest laundry. Ouray is a charming mountain town well worth visiting. Ouray is known as the 'Switzerland of America ' for its breathtaking scenery.

    I have mixed feelings about this inn. * I was pleased to know they accept dogs, and the fee was fair ($30 per pet for the duration of your stay) however upon checking in, they seem pretty anti-dog by the laundry list pet policy form you have to read and sign. It was mentioned dogs are not allowed to be on the bed and the dog pet area to relieve themselves is an extremely tiny area. I was traveling with two dogs and let them know immediately after booking my reservation that I did have two dogs, and upon checkout i went into the office to check out and get a receipt and luckily saw I was overcharged for (3) dogs. To their credit, they corrected that without hassle... but I assume had I not gone into office and checked out it may have been missed. * The room itself was spotlessly clean, so kudos to the housekeeper for that! Great job! The outside premises were tidy also. * The bed was what I believe to be a full or a small queen so pretty tiny but very plush and soft! Pillows were way too firm and thick for my liking but luckily I brought my own! But beware... THICK pillows with not much give! One thing that wasn't super great was the bed only had one accessible side to get in. The other side was about 4 inches from the wall since the room was super tiny in size... half the size of a "regular" motel room. *Bathroom - the bathroom was clean, had a nice vent window in the shower area which I liked and also loved the little baseboard heater in the bathroom. The water was another story! I'll attach photos, but it was continually gross brown water... now I previously managed a hotel for 15 years and have family who own hotels and it's not uncommon to get sediment buildup in pipes in rooms infrequently occupied now and then but usually after you run the tap for a few mins it goes away. This was not the case! I took 3 showers in two days and and the person with me took 2 or 3 showers also... long 15-20 min showers and the water continued to be gross and brown. I don't know what's going on with the water and did not complain to the staff about this as I figured they probably don't have a way to remedy it.... But definitely DO NOT drink the water! It's probably safe, just very unsightly and they should fix and filter! I probably would not stay again, but if you're looking for a more inexpensive motel place, it's not terrible.

    We stayed a few nights and this was a great, super affordable stop. The whole town is walkable from the inn. The owner's were lovely and having a complimentary happy hour glass of wine before dinner was a delight. Not to mention a great breakfast spread - waffles, cereals, breads and yogurts. The rooms, while older are clean and tidy. I'd absolutely stay again, and appreciated feeling more like I was staying at a friends.

    We really enjoyed our stay here. We have a 90lb dog and they were able to accomdate us. Its an older building built in the 50s, so cosmetically there are a few updates that could be done but nothing that bothered us. The location is perfect right in town and you can walk to everything. They gave us a map during check in showing all the dog friendly places, but after calling around, in the winter there are zero places who allow dogs. All the dog friendly places are patio only during the summer and most patios close when its cold out. The rooms were cute with tall ceilings which was great. A little fridge, microwave, and small tv. The shower got super hot which was amazing. The bed was comfy with lots of blankets! The staff was super friendly. Sonia even sent me a text in the morning to let me know they had the hot breakfast out. From 430-630 they do free wine and cookies in the office area and they have tons of games! great little hang out/happy hour on cold nights. They had hot breakfast in the morning with waffles, breakfast burritos, muffins, Cereal, etc. They also have some little items for sale in the office for $1 if you get a sweet tooth at night which we did! I somehow managed to lose my key, and there is a $25 charge but they are going to wait a week to charge me because hopefully itll turn up! My only complaint really was the room was freeeeezing when we got there and it took hours to warm up. I had to put on layers and get in the bed lol. But once it got warm it stayed nice and warm! They do have a strict policy of no dogs being left in your room alone, so we werent able to do some things that we had planned but i knew that before coming. Next time we come ill probably take him to the doggie daycare in town so we can do the hot springs! If youre looking for a super fancy and bougie place, this isnt it. But I dont think any of Ouray is lol. Overall we really loved this place and definitely recommend it!

    I like to walk to town and be in the heart of the Resteraunts, shops, theatre, and market, I spent a week at the Ouray Inn, a great mountain stay two blocks from Main Street. Three blocks from Box Canon. Or four from the hot springs pool and complex (including koi pond, park, and Information Building.) Included is a perfect breakfast and happy hour. Laundry, an upstairs deck, grills, ping pong, and mountains. I loved it.

    My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at this inn. We only stayed for one night and loved it! The bed felt like a cloud and we slept like babies! The room had a mini freezer a microwave and a coffee maker. In the morning we got up around 7:30 and headed to breakfast. When we walked in the first thing we smelled were the yummy fresh made cinnamon rolls! There was also bagels, yogurt, fruit, waffles and pastries. By far the best free breakfast ever!!!!!! This place had a charm to it. The little gazebo was all lit up at night made it very romantic place to sit and enjoy the quite night. Can't wait to come back!!!!!

    See all

We were in town for an event that included dinner but we ended up bailing on that and based on the recommendation of the bartender at the Imogene Hotel we ended up here. They have a small dining room that apparently is almost always booked out so we ate at the bar. Really nothing negative to say. Service was prompt and friendly and we enjoyed our conversations with the hostess that seated us and our servers. They offer chef specials for a starter (salad) and for multiple entrees. They also offer a daily special cocktail. The food was solid and the presentations were really well done. I posted our salad courses to show how they handle it. The wife had the on menu ember roasted beet and apple salad. While the apples were scant the overall flavor was fantastic and the local goat cheese had tremendous punch. The salad was perfectly dressed with a lemon vinaigrette. I went with the off menu local tomato and cucumber salad which also included feta, dill, a red wine vinegar dressing and some zaatar seasoning. Again a solid dish, pretty to look at and great tasting. I went with chef special of venison stew. Again, perfectly cooked, the venison fork tender, the vegetables being cooked al dente and the broth being so good I wanted order a cup and just drink it up. We love bolognese and make it at home all the time. the on menu version used just lamb for the protein which (to us) was a bit unusual as you will usually see them with multiple meats. Suffice it to say, this did not need it. The flavor was out of this world fantastic, the rigatoni was cooked perfectly and the freshly grated parmesan was the perfect touch to enhance the overall flavor. Score this a solid 10 - when we return Ouary we will be back to eat here and may even try the hotel out.

Waterfalls , hiking trails , shopping, off road trails , dog park , water park ... and that's not even it ! For such a small town I'm impressed ! The hotel we picked is nice , not super luxurious but quaint . Friendly , helpful staff . They have a swing to sit on at the top of their hot springs tubs . I saw a lot of complaints about their hot tubs but there was a staff of people cleaning them today and some of them looked " slimier" than others , those looked like the ones most used . Up top were the best ones , but slippery getting in so be careful ! They have breakfast in the morning with eggs, sausage , bacon , waffles etc . We didn't go until after 9am and yes , they still had food and more coming out . Only complaint is that we have dogs ( there is a $30 person per night fee ) and had to stay on bottom floor .. the problem was that you could hear through the walls the people walking above you and to the side of you. ( I think the lady next to us was being extra loud when talking . However we did not get woken up by our neighbors so maybe just a one off ... anyways I would stay here again . Comfy bed , hot, hot showers .. iron., hair dryers .. coffee maker . You have to visit Ouray , Colorado at some point in your life!

    It's hard to put into words, the way I feel about this place, but I'll try…read more We specifically booked this place because of the history. And the cabin in particular that is built upon Chief Ouray's hunting adobe. We absolutely loved the cabin. It was private and primative, but had everything we needed. And to learn that it was built in 1902 was even better. It does have a comfy bedroom, it is not a studio. And a kitchenette with a fridge and a stove, a microwave and mostly fully stocked. A decent shower and lots of heaters with a wood burning stove. We would stay here again in a second. It was neat waking up to the wild turkeys and driving up and down the hill in the ice. The jeep made it really easy. We also booked the sunroom and while I do love staying in the lodge, because of its convenience, we much prefer the cabin. The sun room is almost all windows, and it is literally built on top of the vapor cave with the rock coming through one wall. It's very cozy too, and has a king bed. That part is great! There is no kitchenette in here though, but the front desk clerk was kind enough to help us with some items we needed to make some sandwiches. I'll tell you the most difficult part is this: The entitlement of folks who have no concept of respect. Whether it be berating the staff or talking loudly and obnoxiously while soaking. If someone doesn't know hot springs etiquette, they should learn. It's a place of retreat, rest and relaxation. It's also a sacred native site. It deserves respect. Don't come here if you're looking to be loud and obnoxious. You don't know how many times I watched people walk away from soaking, because of idle drunk gossipy talk... The times where we have been mostly alone, are just epic and I'm truly grateful for that. It has been one of the best weeks just becoming one with nature and the earth, honoring the sacred. There really are no more words except this... For all the negative reviews around social media or online, that's great keep it up. The rest of us would like this little gem kept a secret. Thanks

    A giant scam. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!…read more In short, I had a reservation. Mudslides closed the roads to Ouray just prior to my arrival. I confirmed the closed roads with the Colorado Department of Transportation. The hotel still refused to refund my money despite being unable to get there. I offered to change my reservations to 2-3 weeks later since I would return to Colorado. The hotel refused to refund my money. The hotel never provided a name of anyone to discuss. I only could converse via email to a generic hotel email. I am still fighting to get back my $1,000. Hotel doesn't care as long as they have my money. Pathetic. They refused to discuss over phone.

We had a king accessible room so it was probably a little different from the regular rooms. It was spacious but one of the lights wasn't working so we had to drag a lamp over to the table area. There was a microwave and good size fridge and a small, pod coffee maker on the dresser. IMO the coffee was pretty good. Our couch also pulled out into a bed. They had coffee/tea in the lobby and passed out brown bag breakfasts in the morning. Our bathroom could have used some counter space but there wasn't any. The shower was tiny but did have a bench and grab bars. The whole thing was porta-potty sized and only had a hand held sprayer with very weak water pressure, but it was clean. They did provide bar soap and had shampoo and body wash dispensers in the shower. The whole room was pretty clean and almost bug free - which for Colorado mountain towns says a lot. It was showing some wear but it was nice to have the air conditioning unit even if it was noisy and didn't work very well. There was also a portable floor fan in the small closet along with a luggage stand and bench for the shower. If someone needs an accessible room this one was very complete. I chatted with John, the owner, a couple of times and he is very nice and pretty mellow. His daughter Laura is also very friendly and sweet. Really the biggest issue we had was lack of maid service. When I went to ask about clean towels, John told me to put our used ones on the chair outside our door. We did that the next day at 7am, got back to the room about 3:30pm and the used towels were gone but there were no new ones. I went to the lobby and got towels and when we left for dinner there was a stack of clean towels on the chair. No one ever emptied our trash or even checked the room the whole week. It wasn't that we needed much but the website and handout we received both stated they had daily maid service. For $250/night I would have expected better communication. I did really enjoy the firepit area and hot tubs and we were able to have friends over one evening to socialize on the patio. I do recommend The River's Edge but it's important to clarify expectations on what's included.

No formal check in, the key was in the door of your room for entry. They were outstanding for our entire stay. Breakfast each day was delicious, Elizabeth's stuffed French toast was the best. They asked each day if we had any food limitations which was nice to add or delete ingredients for a breakfast made to order. The last day friendly Laura was the chef for breakfast and did a fabulous job. At 5:00pm they had a happy hour with beer, wine and delicious cookies. We met other couples and visited in the reception area daily each with adventures of the day in Ouray. The location is beautiful and quiet with a short walk to the main street of the town. Parking is perfect right in front of the manor. The outdoor hot tub was the best after daytime hiking. Towels and robes were provided in a basket in the reception area. The hot tub had 7 powerful jets on your back and feet and it was never busy. Room 10 on the second floor at the end of the hallway was spacious with high ceilings and a jetted bathtub. It was nice to have 2 entry doors, one from inside the manor and a 2nd door to enter from the outside to the outdoor hot tub. This was our 1st stay at a B&B in the USA and it was a wonderful experience. The staff at Black Bear Manor made you feel welcomed and at home. Thank you Elizabeth, Conner and Laura!
