Have you ever been to a place that's so special, you aren't quite sure if you should tell people about it or not? That's how we feel about Creede. It's a beautiful, quiet, retreat from modern America—a quaint, old mining town, far enough up in the mountains that it almost seems to have escaped the past century. No chain restaurants, no malls, no stoplights—just a little community, surrounded by the canyons, cliffs, and creeks of the San Juan Mountains.

The Creede Hotel is the town's oldest lodging and dining establishment, and it's right in the middle of town, on Creede's picturesque Main Street. The Hotel offers B&B accommodations throughout the summer, and the restaurant is open daily, satisfying guests with fresh food and warm, small-town hospitality. After dinner, guests can stroll next door to support the performing arts and enjoy a play at the nationally-acclaimed Creede Repertory Theatre.

Colorado's Landmark Hotels by Linda Wommack
The colorful history and the roots of Creede’s beginning are very evident at the Creede Hotel. The hotel remains the most popular place to stay in Creede, as it was in the beginning, in 1892. Although small, with just four guest rooms, all on the second floor, the hotel prides itself in the simplicity of yesteryear. While each room has a private bathroom, there are no televisions, telephones, or internet access. Hotel owner, David Toole, says “Stepping into the Creede Hotel is stepping back in time.”
