"I enjoyed the Spa area, however the Monarch website could use some updates to be more clear about HOW to reserve a "Day Pass" and the cost of it. Also, I was woken up at 8:45am by a loud doorbell noise in my room. I thought it might be a fire alarm? Turns out housekeeping was checking to see if I was there... I was jolted awake from a deep sleep unfortunately, on my vacation."

"Front desk staff was very helpful in resolving reservation issues. Everyone was helpful and friendly. The location is great for exploring downtown Golden and the area!!"

"The location is great, tucked into a residential area within close walking distance to Pearl Street Mall. I liked the unique personality of the motel, with its amenities like the climbing wall/lounge area. The lobby area coffee/beverages and beer bar is a nice addition. It's motel style rooms reflect an outdoorsy vibe compatible with the Boulder lifestyle, are comfortable and offer the basic room amenities."

"This is a case of never judging a book by it's cover. It doesn't look like much when you pull in ir even when you first go into the room. It was clean but stepping outside is magical. Clear Creek is right behind the hotel. We had a small balcony and could watch rafters and canoes going down the creek. We loved it. Then there is a screen door out to the balcony, so we had the sound of the creek the whole time. The beds are SO CONFORTABLE. All of us slept well, which rarely happens when sleeping...

"Quick and easy "

"The staff were terrific. This is an ideal mid-priced hotel particularly if you are planning to stay for more than a night. "

"Amazing place. What a great find. Flew in for a hike and to sightsee the area. Used the sauna, hot tub, pool and the river for a cold plunge. We stayed in the cabin, surprisingly spacious, beds were very comfy. Already planning our next stay. "

"Great location, great price! Other than our room’s fire alarm being missing, we had a perfect experience"
