This is an economy hotel, a bit shabby if you are looking for a shiny new place to stay but they have a good rate, a wonderful location right next to CU (we walked over for a children's science program and didn't have to worry about parking), a friendly staff (I had a problem with the door lock and the...

Our friend booked a few nights at this hotel over Memorial Day weekend. Other reviews of the Outlook were decent, it was relatively affordable compared to other Boulder hotels, and it was in a good location. However, the hotel sorely disappointed and if we hasn't paid in advance we probably would've switched hotels. The Outlook looks like an old outdoor-style... More

We used to enjoy staying at this funky hotel with the then-unique concept of being a zero-waste hotel, and they had a great free form indoor pool & a little climbing wall for the kiddos, but this last visit will be our last. It feels like the hotel is on its last legs with its rundown condition, lack of cleanliness... More

Power went out for 2 hours while I had a conference call set at 6am. No natural light to shower or dress. The management was completely unapologetic and down right rude regarding the situation. Shocked at how terrible the customer service was.

The Boulder Outlook is a fun experience when visiting the city. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The lobby is colorful and you immediately see a lovely swimming pool and hot tub in the lobby, very inventive and tempting. There is a free delicious daily breakfast included in the affordable rate. I recommend this hotel for fun, affordability, and... More

I have stayed at this hotel several times since my son has been in school at CU. It is really convenient to campus. This is a funky, older non luxury hotel, but it is a great value, considering breakfast is included. It does show signs of wear and tear, but fine for my needs. Music at night is nice too,... More

This hotel is great for kids. A swimming pool, hot tub, playroom, and rocks to climb. My children had a great time exploring the hotel after a day of skiing. The staff is great and this is the most kid friendly hotel we have found yet and for a great price.

I heard that The Outlook is closing down, and CU is expanding into it's space. This made me so sad. The fun and "natural" pool area has been so fun for kids' parties and entertaining out of town guests. This was the hotel that we stayed at when we were looking to move to Boulder. Their "green" and "no waste"... More

Beds rock hard, electric outlets do not work, hair dryer did not work, towel bars fell off wall, breakfast very unsanitary, both saunas not working, workout area smelled disgusting, very noisy. When I reported issues to management, they were unconcerned, no empathy, could not have cared less!! Their brochure said to report problem and they will fix but that certainly... More

When we arrived at the hotel, we thought it was interesting and eclectic. However, upon settling down for the night we discovered that the heater would quit blowing hot air and begin blowing out cold air. Think record lows for winter that night. It was about midnight when I first discovered this, I fiddled around with the thermostat and thought... More
