The Bradley Boulder Inn is a Boulder, Colorado boutique hotel with an ideal downtown location. The Bradley is within walking distance of many of Boulder's attractions including the famous Pearl Street Pedestrian Mall, the The University of Colorado at Boulder and the CU Buffs  Athletic facilities, and the best downtown shopping, restaurants and nightlife Boulder has to offer.

Here are a few of our favorite things to do in Boulder while staying at The Bradley Boulder Inn:

From fine dining to casual comfort, there are endless restaurants to satiate the senses, most within walking distance of the Inn. So leave your car in our parking lot and stroll down Pearl to Frasca Food and Wine. With an award-winning chef and sommelier, an ever-changing seasonal menu specializing in Northern Italian cuisine, and a charming atmosphere, this local legend is a must for visitors to Boulder. Ask our front desk to help you with your reservation.

Enjoy a French-fusion, ten-course prefix at L'Atelier, just a block away. Or, escape with a ten-minute drive to the mountains and drink in the city lights with haute-American cuisine from the Flag Staff House. If light and easy with a side of unique is on the palate, across the street from The Bradley is Aji, a Boulder favorite for Latin American and Caribbean creations. Next door is Leaf, a fresh new vegetarian restaurant. The Mountain Sun is the local rock climbers hot spot for fabulous burgers and more beers on tap than an eight-sampler allows. The Boulder Dushanbe Tea House brings the Far East close to home with world cuisine and the most proper Afternoon Tea this side of Britain. For Mexican food lovers, The Rio Grande offers world-famous margaritas, crowd-pleasing Nachos Simpatico and Steak Enchiladas.

Boulder, of course, is celebrated for the great outdoors and access to its bounty is steps from The Bradley. No matter what your interest; hiking, biking, climbing, golfing, skiing, snowshoeing, horseback riding, outdoor theatre or music --Boulder offers an invigorating outdoor experience for everyone. From the Mount Sanitas trailhead, there are a number of options for every hiker's level, but the view from the top is worth the two-hour hike. A short drive from the Bradley is Chautauqua Park, which brings hikers, climbers, and socialites alike to the base of our Flatiron Mountains for a day of exercise or an evening of music with the famous Colorado Music Festival. The Colorado Shakespeare Festival, held in the outside amphitheatre on the CU Campus with a picnic under the stars is a Boulder summer tradition not to be missed.

For the altitude-impaired, long-distance runners, or paddling aficionados, the Boulder Creek Path is but a few blocks from The Bradley. Be sure to allow yourself time for a contemplative walk or rejuvenating jog along this boulder-strewn creek that runs through our town.

Or, why not stage your adventures in Rocky Mountain National Park from The Bradley Inn? Estes Park is just an hour northwest of Boulder. 

Cyclists ride into, out of, and around Boulder on mountain, road and townies from Full Cycle Bike Shop, just around the corner. In winter, snowshoes, skis (downhill and cross-country) are available from numerous shops. Just outside One Boulder Fitness, The Bradley's health club partner, is an outdoor ice skating rink and of course, Eldora Ski Resort is just 35 minutes away.

If a little relaxation and rejuvenation suits you, start your day with a yoga or cycling class at our health club partner, One Boulder Fitness and follow it up, just next door, with the ultimate ayurvedic body treatment at our spa partner, Sensorielle Spa.

Boulder is home to numerous artists, many of whom display their original artworks at the Bradley. The Bradley showcases photographers, painters, sculptors and more from Boulder galleries such as Mary Williams Fine Arts, Smith-Klein Gallery and Canvas Back Gallery. The images of the award-winning Heartstrings, a Boulder-based card company, offers guests a peaceful and whimsical peek into our town.
