Here at Holden House, you will find three side-by-side Victorian homes, situated in a tree-lined residential area just one mile west of downtown Colorado Springs, one mile east of historic Old Colorado City and four miles from quaint Manitou Springs. Within our adjacent complex of three Victorian painted lady homes, we feature the turreted Main House, the Rose Victorian and the Carriage House, each with two separate and well-appointed suites. While the world of travel has changed with an increasing number of alternative overnight accommodations, you can be assured that Holden House is dedicated to maintaining the overall quality, hospitality and cleanliness in our traditional boutique-style inn, combined with a delicious gourmet breakfast served each morning.
Breakfast Included! Each morning, our guests are treated to a complimentary full breakfast that's included in your room rate and served in the main house dining room. An optional breakfast served ensuite is also available for an additional fee. In addition, we will prepare an individual evening snack tray and glass of wine or beverage that you can take to your suite or enjoy in one of our many common areas, indoor or out.
 We're Fall-ing for you! September and October are great times to visit Holden House with our usual sunny warm days and cool evenings mixed with spectacular aspen colors. Our innkeepers will give you the best tips for local leaf-peeping and our ensuite fireplaces will be ready to warm you when you return from your day. Make your reservations now to guarantee your space for your autumn getaway.
Relaxation anyone? Our private outdoor areas are the perfect place to unwind. The Pikes Peak Suite features its own balcony, right off the bedroom with a king size bed. This is our largest suite upstairs in the adjacent Rose Victorian featuring a kitchenette with microwave and refrigerator, K-cup coffee maker, private attached bath and a separate living room.
