Wonderful hotel, friendly & helpful staff. Beautiful room. Breakfast was a bit overstated; just bread that could be toasted and fruit. We’ve stayed here twice and would stay here again.

St Elmo is a quintessential Ouray hotel.

Well restored, maintained hotel, very welcoming and comfortable. The people were friendly. Hotel is on the main street and everything was within walking distance.

The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was very small with a short toilet. The sink in the room was also small, so no place to put toiletries. I would not recommend for anyone who has trouble with stairs.

The historic nature of the St. Elmo is awesome, and the room and staff were great. Only disappointment was “continental breakfast”. If the usual pastries had been present, I would have been fine, but the yogurt parfait and fruit was not something I can stomach in the morning. Found an affordable option at Cassidy’s, 2 doors down. St. Elmo’s did have coffee available.

Overall good stay. Hot tub wasn't working properly so it was a hot soaker tub. Staff was amazing. Great homemade breakfast, and they are super friendly. I'd stay again.
