Cripple Creek Hospitality House & Travel Park
About Cripple Creek Hospitality House & Travel Park
A former mining-district hospital transformed into an intimate historic hotel, complete with individually decorated rooms, medical-era details, a made-to-order breakfast, and an adjoining full-service RV park.
Cripple Creek Hospitality House & Travel Park occupies the former Teller County Hospital, a substantial 1901 building created during the region’s mining boom. The restored property retains the wide staircase, long corridors, high ceilings, antique furnishings, and medical references associated with its original purpose. Each hotel room carries a name connected to a former hospital department, turning a night’s accommodation into a quiet walk through local history. Despite the setting, the mood is warm rather than clinical; no one is likely to mistake the breakfast room for an operating theater.
The hotel contains a small collection of individually decorated rooms rather than rows of identical accommodations. Queen and king categories vary in floor plan, furniture, color scheme, and bathroom arrangement. Historical objects and period-style pieces appear throughout the rooms and shared areas, while modern amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi, flat-screen televisions, heating, private bathrooms, linens, toiletries, and hair dryers. Certain rooms include seating areas or additional sleeping space, although layouts differ throughout the building.

Where You’ll Be Staying
Cripple Creek Hospitality House & Travel Park sits less than a mile from downtown Cripple Creek in a quieter residential and mountain setting. The central casino district, restaurants, museums, and historic commercial buildings are nearby, but the immediate surroundings feel more spacious than Bennett Avenue. The hotel’s elevated location and landscaped grounds provide a useful pause from the lights and electronic noise of the gaming properties.
Cripple Creek stands at high elevation in the Colorado mountains, so weather can shift quickly and nighttime temperatures often fall sharply. Most downtown attractions are reachable by a short drive or local shuttle, while a car remains useful for scenic roads, trailheads, state parks, and neighboring Victor.
Cripple Creek Heritage Center
The Cripple Creek Heritage Center explores the area’s geology, mining history, wildlife, and settlement through exhibits and large windows overlooking the surrounding landscape. Its hilltop position supplies a broad introduction to the district before the old shafts, railways, and brick storefronts begin making more sense.
Outlaws and Lawmen Jail Museum
The former Teller County Jail preserves original cells, law-enforcement artifacts, and stories from the district’s rougher years. The museum is close to downtown and compact enough to fit between other stops without turning the day into a prison sentence.
Cripple Creek District Museum
The Cripple Creek District Museum occupies several historic structures and displays mining tools, photographs, household objects, and period interiors. It offers a closer look at daily life during the gold boom rather than focusing only on the fortunes pulled from underground.
Cripple Creek and Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad
The seasonal narrow-gauge railway travels through the mining district using restored locomotives and open-air cars. The route passes old mines, rugged hillsides, and broad mountain scenery while explaining how rail transport supported the region’s mining economy.
Mueller State Park
Mueller State Park provides forested trails, wildlife viewing, picnic areas, and seasonal outdoor recreation within driving distance of Cripple Creek. It offers a quieter counterpoint to the casino district, with considerably fewer flashing lights and more elk.
What to Expect Around Here
Cripple Creek combines preserved mining history, active casinos, mountain scenery, museums, and a small-town pace. Downtown can feel lively around the gaming properties, while the streets farther uphill become quieter and more residential. The thin air is noticeable, particularly on stairs and slopes, so a slower first day is often the sensible approach.
