Nestled in Denver’s Historic Wyman District ‘The Holiday Chalet’ takes you on a journey into Colorado’s colorful past.
The Victorian hotel is a fully restored Victorian brownstone which was originally built in 1896 for the prominent jeweler Henry Bohn. In 1912 Noah Hayden Griffith and Ida Lindsey Griffith purchased the brownstone and lived there with their two children. The mansion was a private residence until 1918 when the flu epidemic took Noah’s life. To save her home, Ida hired a well known Dutch architect to convert the mansion into 12 efficiency apartments. Then in 1952 property taxes were raised. Since the building was restricted by a rent freeze imposed during World War II, the family decided to change the apartments into a bed and breakfast. The Holiday Chalet celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2002.
Elegant period décor; high ceilings; hardwood floors; intricate moldings; private baths / kitchens; and a full breakfast, help make your stay at The Holiday Chalet a memorable experience. While the Victorian ambiance provides warmth, charm and comfort our business and leisure travelers will find excellent shopping; touring; and abundant day and night life within minutes of their hotel room.
The Holiday Chalet also houses both The Ida Lindsey Tea Room and She She Boutique.
