Briar Rose Review

A country-style brick home built in the 1890s, this midcity bed-and-breakfast might remind you of Grandma’s place--only this Grandma is a hip Boulder Buddhist. The place is decorated with a Zen-meets–Big Sur approach, from the bedrooms to the parlor to the sunny back porch, and the lovely gardens offer a quiet escape. Two of the eight units in the main house have fireplaces; two in a separate carriage house come with either a patio or a balcony. All are furnished with feather comforters. The inn has implemented numerous environmentally aware policies, and the full organic breakfast is gourmet quality: homemade granola, fresh nut breads, yogurt with fruit, and much more. There are two guest computers off of the sitting room.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
