I have always been wary of reviews. Well maybe not the review, but the reviewer. I just don't get leaving negative reviews. What is the intention? It seems cruel in some way. I root for people. I root for small businesses. Everyone has a bad night. And I, except for one other time, have only written positive reviews for the establishments I have been lucky enough to frequent. I feel deeply compelled to write this review (My intention is not to hurt a business. My intention is to hold someone accountable for behavior that is completely inappropriate). My review will be supplemented by other guests that also witnessed the altercation.The Patterson Inn is a lovely property. The rooms are well appointed and the included breakfast is wonderful (yummy and very fresh). And the staff minus the owner were great. The issue at the Patterson Inn is a singular issue - the owner is abusive, greedy, aggressive and downright scary. He feels a bit unhinged. Very defensive and quick to angry over a pretty small incident. I mean no disrespect to the owner to describe him this way but truly that's how it felt. Even the emails he sent after my stay felt unstable. He kept calling me names and kept telling me "to cease and desist." It was insane. For one of the nights I was in town, My Cousin stayed with me and was a witness to the incident and he almost called the police as Chris was yelling so loudly calling me an entitled victim. Another hotel guest approached me that afternoon and they were "horrified." I should have left then and there. I am a 55 year old single woman who booked a week long stay at the Patterson Inn. I am a Denver native and recently moved to South Carolina but came home for the week to care for my elderly Mom. Patterson Inn is in the heart on Capitol Hill - a vibrant walkable area. First and most importantly, I do take full accountability in my part of the incident that occurred. Patterson Inn provides 3 parking spaces and there is generally ample street parking. However, that night when I came home the area was teeming with police cars. There was an active shooter in the area and the police were asking residents to "stay in place." All the spaces at the Inn were full so I pulled my car into the loading zone in front of the hotel and my car was partially blocking another car in one of the Patterson spaces. The car had ample space to get out. I was in no way obstructing the driver from getting out of the space but I admit that I was probably a foot over the loading zone. I am 100 percent responsible for doing this. I tried and tried to apologize to Chris. I have never in my life had someone respond to me and treat me the way I was treated. Chris completely lost it. He threw a temper tantrum that was heard trough out the Inn and made the other guests profoundly unconfortable. See the other reviews from those guests. Chris brought me to tears yelling over me. He kept calling me victim and said "you don't care about other people." I'd never said more than hello to him prior to this interaction. I just keep trying to de-escalate the situation. My cousin and another guest recorded the exchange. Chris is also a big guy and as we were interacting at one point he stood up and postured himself in a way that I felt physically threatened. My cousin almost called the police. I honestly felt bad for parking inappropriately and did everything in my power to stay calm but chris really had trouble composing himself until he realized he'd made me cry. I apologized repeatedly for parking incorrectly and I even offered to leave the Inn but Chris said he would not refund my money. My whole goal during the interaction was to try and calm Chris down. I thought at the end of it that things had been resolved although myself and other guests certainly felt awkward and uncomfortable. I went out that day and bought Chris and his staff (who were wonderful) a Panetonne to again assert my apology and to hope to keep Chris calm and professional during the remainder of my stay. They staff loved it and ate it happily (Chris claims no one ate it because I might have poisoned it - I kid you not. I saw the front desk clerk eat it). The 4th day I was there my son was hit by a car while on his bike causing him to break both femur bones. Herein I needed to check out of the hotel and fly to be with my son in DC. I alerted the front desk clerk about the situation and asked if I could have a credit for the remaining nights to use at a later date. She said great but would need to check in with Chris. I gave it a couple days and reached out. When Chris finally responded he said there would be no credit. So I paid for 3 nights and he would not credit those nights back and then he again became belligerent. read more

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. read more

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! read more

The Patterson Inn - Original stained glass window - Bed & Breakfast Near Me - Denver, Colorado

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. read more

Character filled lovely Boutique hotel filled with character and characters. Chef Brandon provided mind blowing delicious breakfasts that alone make the stay worthwhile. The room was comfortable and spacious, and unique. The building is old, but the rooms are clean and comfortable. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The owner is gregarious and filled with entertaining stories. We will certainly consider staying there again on our next visit to Denver read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more

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! read more

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.

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. read more

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. read more

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.

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

The Patterson Inn - The Royale...after 2 days of living in it! (They gladly honor the "Privacy Please" request)... - Bed & Breakfast Near Me - Denver, Colorado

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! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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.... read more

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!! ;-) read more

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.
