My first visit to Silverton and I'm so glad I chose to stay at The Avon!
Loved the charm of this place, very fitting to the full experience of a mountain town at high elevation.
The whole establishment was kept very clean, bathrooms are clean and stuffed with clean towels and toiletries, the kitchen/bar/living room area is very roomy.
I stayed at one of the bunk rooms and I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable the bed was, with clean and soft bedding.
Great job to Daniel, who runs this place, for preserving the mountains town charm.

This is a really funky, quaint historic hotel. Great location, you can walk all over Silverton and to the shops and restaurants. My son and I stayed on our way through to our home in Northern Colorado. We were in the two bedroom room. The beds were super comfortable and we slept really well. Our main complaint was that we couldn't see in the bathroom, there was one little light by the mirror. There was another small wall light by the shower, but it had no bulb in it - so the shower was quite dark while showering!
This is a Colorado mountain town hotel. It is not luxurious by any means, but it is fun. It is in one of the most beautiful places, and does not even try to be pretentious, much like the town it sits in. I hope that never changes. There are plenty of other places to get that attitude in Colorado, just point to a map. I don't know if the Avon is open in the winter, but my son and I talked about returning then, it is my favorite time to be in Silverton. The Avon is good and definitely has the potential to be absolutely great. I will be returning!

We didn’t see anyone from the staff. We didn’t get shower gel or shampoo. The room was not cleaned while we were there. There was a continuous noise coming from the kitchen, like a motor continuously starting, that made sleeping uncomfortable.

No staff available other than by phone number. Bar is not operating, kitchen is available to guests, but it's a industrial kitchen and difficult to navigate would have been nice to have a microwave. Another guest said there was one in basement but didn't work. Hotel smelled of railroad ties. Bathroom/Rooms were clean room locks didn't lock. In a town isolated it was interesting but okay for a night.

OK. I really liked the place for it's Quirky vibe. Endearing. But was never personally greeted by anyone. Remote check in only. I arrived a little after 6 pm so....? And contrary to the prior reviews, no one had a beer or snack available. Nice to have, but not needed. Bar never opened.

The room was clean and the bed comfy.... Once I got in. The lock and key had to work it out between themselves (old school key on hotel fob) which took a minute.

No guidance on location to find food but being intrepid I figured it out... Which was lucky since even tho I was offered kitchen access, the stove and other gas appliances were not connected. A hot plate/press would never heat up - found the cord but never found the plug. Gave up and cooked, thankfully, in my van.

There was one guy in the bar area who was visiting from Moab - we had a great discussion and discovered we were fellow Project Managers & techies.

I would really like to rate the place higher but.... You have to earn it by being customer focused. My experience - not so.

Glad they had a sound machine in the room to block out adjacent room noise (hey, it's an old place..) because the cooler downstairs sounded like my dad when he would fall asleep in his easy chair and snore. Again, something endearing in an odd way but.... My room was on the 2nd floor just above the cooler.

Slept reasonably well and shower was hot, thankfully. Silverton is a great town with friendly folks. Had a wonderful B-fast at Dera Deli.

This is an historic property in the historic town of Silverton Colorado. We felt our stay was outstanding! Our room and bath were immaculate. The bedding was very comfortable. We especially appreciated the lobby and furnished bar area. While the hotel does not serve alcohol, guests are welcome to sit in the bar area and visit, watch TV and play games. A full commercial kitchen is also available for guests to use. The Avon is dog-friendly, and our pooch enjoyed meeting the other well-behaved pups. We had a great visit and appreciated the welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely return.

I want to like the Avon but not the best experience. My wife booked a room for me while I was bike packing the Colorado Trail. She was told I would receive instructions on how to check in - I never got a text or email. Walked in to the lobby and there were multiple people all standing behind the main bar - which looked like a reception desk. After being ignored I finally noticed a small picture frame with a phone number and overheard another guest on his phone trying to figure out how to check in. After hearing him I realized the key was in a box behind the counter. I also then realized no one was actually working there. I guess the bar and kitchen is free range for guest - but since I never received any communication from the Avon I had no idea. The room was also a disappointment. Described as the Fire Suite with a king and queen - we needed two beds so that's what she booked. The queen ended up being a mattress on the floor, up a steep ladder in a loft with about 4 feet of headroom. Its a cool building with tons of history in a good location. Just not so great service from the owners.

I was adventuring solo for a few days and stayed in the 3-bed hostel room at the Avon. The room was small but the bed was comfy, the amenities were nice (i.e. towels and toiletries in the bathroom), and the staff was welcoming and helpful. It is a funky, cozy, old-timey spot in the mountains, with a covered porch with rocking chairs so you can sit outside and look at the mountains winding down after a day of hiking or having your morning coffee. I would definitely stay there again. Thanks to Pat for all the help making this a great mini-vacation!

Great experience

We needed a hotel suddenly secondary to fresh snow storm. Few told available in town. The Avon is a restored 100* year old establishment, functioning previously to house miners. The owner has created a cozy, comfortable hotel. So glad we had the opportunity to experience the Avon. Would definitely recommend

The most surprising aspect is that we never interacted with someone in person. There was a note to make a phone call when checking in. The first person didn't answer; fortunately, the second one did. I was told where to find the key to our room and where it was located on the 3rd floor. No elevator since this is a historic building with numerous antiques. This property was really more of a hostel since it had shared bathrooms, which were nice! The problem we had is that it was noisy with sounds from other guests coming and going on the creaky wood floors. Fortunately, it was cool since there was only a fan in the room for air circulation. An advantage of this property is that it is not on the main street in the center of town so, I assume, that it would be quieter from outdoor sounds. For people wanting to visit, there were nice areas both inside and outside for people to sit. As a plus, one could use the kitchen to cook if they wanted. A variety of teas and coffee was available in the lobby in a Keurig machine. When checking out, one puts the key in a drop box.

Bohemian beauty

We were traveling to see the colors with my 88 year old Mother in Law in western CO and stayed in Silverton because lodging in the area is outrageously expensive. Found the Avon online. It was nothing like we were expecting but delightful all the same. Bohemian is the word I’d use to describe it. It was very clean, the only problem we had is getting my MIL up and down the stairs but other than that we had a nice stay

We never saw anyone who worked there. Our key was given to us by a guest. The bar was nonexistent, only in pictures , there but nonfunctional. Way overpriced for what was offered. An overpriced hostel at best.

LOVE the style and the facility - like staying in a hostel back in the wild west days but with great amenities. I love the design throughout the facility with all the old items, etc. Can't beat the price too for a dorm room if you are in the area for whatever reason and don't want to spend too much money on a hotel.
However - I did not have a good night sleep which was why I paid to crash at the Avon.
For two reasons:
1) The room was SO hot. No idea if they have AC or not but the room was hot and stuffy. I know Silverton is up in the mountains and has nice evening air but it was not helpful inside that room.
2) Two pillows were provided - both were huge and very thick/hard which did not work for my neck. Had to go with no pillow which also did not help. Need to remember to bring my own pillow when traveling by car and have toom to take it with me.

Bottom line - would probably stay there again and hope to sleep better with my own pillow.
Room temperature might still be an issue I will have to consider.

Second time at the Avon. Stayed as part of a trip to hike Ice Lake. Bonus for this place is it is a stopover for though-hikers on the Colorado Trail. Great to talk with the hikers about their adventures. Will be back!

Very good location in a quiet and safe neighborhood. It is an old building converted to a lodge & restaurant. Common areas are very well decorated like an old Western saloon. Liked access to the common kitchen in the restaurant downstairs to make your own breakfast etc., if you have an early start. Keurig machine is available but for some reason only tea pods were the ones available.

This was probably my favorite accommodation I have ever stayed at! Its so charming and eclectic, while also being very clean and comfortable. My partner and I brought our dog and she had a great time wandering the common spaces and meeting the house dog, Ivy! The old movie theater in the basement is awesome - streaming apps logged in so you can go ahead and watch Netflix in the coolest place you every will! Checkin / out was easy and everyone was super friendly. Access to kitchen was a huge plus since we were camping before and after our stay.

Unbelievable

Somehow I got placed in a shared room, about 1/3 the size of a camping cabin, with 5 bunk beds rented out to random people. Felt like a sauna. Had couple mini fans. No AC. Shared bathroom facilities. Spent night in my car. (Covid is still around). Checked out in morning.
I prepaid 2 nights through Hotels.com. Requested refund for 2nd night. Avon Hotel won't authorize 2nd nite refund.

This is the most unique little hotel I've ever stayed at. The rooms were very clean the king says bed was exceptional and comfortable and the pillows were as well. I don't want to say too much to ruin it but if you're near Silverton or in this part of Colorado it is worth a visit

Best in Silverton (or anywhere)

If you’re staying in Silverton, the Avon is a must. This a truly unique facility you won’t find elsewhere. Super friendly owner. I may come back to Silverton just to stay here again.

Awesome hidden gem in Silverton

Quaint and charming place located before a scenic background in Silverton. The owner was kind, the rooms and communal bathrooms were great, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was pleasant. The history behind the hotel was an added bonus! Our room had a queen and 2 bunk beds. Owner ensured that they are individual fans for bunk beds. Shared bathrooms were clean and equipped with enough towels/toiletries. There is a record player in our room and we enjoyed old classics. There is a media player in the basement, an added bonus.

We did like the idea of the owner. Renovation of old property. He did a good job and has really cool things about it. The room had extremely slanted floors, maybe 10 x 10 at the top of the stairs. Gap under door made it very noisy. Wood floors which were cool but we could hear everyone that came up stairs. Dog fight in hallway around 11:30 first night we stayed. Had a hard time goin back to sleep. Owner wasn't friendly at all. Very matter of fact...just not a warm friendly atmosphere at all. Bathrooms were girl and boy but was shared with everyone the floor. Maybe 6 rooms shared. Stalls so not terrible. Nice back porch. Chilly so didn't use it. Really cool things about the property. Just didn't sleep well at all either night. It wasn't what I would stay in again but could see my grown children enjoying it because it is unique. Very clean and lots of good things....just not for me.

Colorado Dream Hotel

Absolutely loved this hotel! We stayed in room 11 (private rm with our own bathroom). Loved that the room had a record player for entertainment and books galore! We also had a beautiful view of the mountains from our bedroom window. There’s a tv in the common area for those that want it, but this property is so charming there’s no need to sit around and watch tv. Close enough in town to get out and walk around to places you need to go. I hope to return someday if just to stay here!

Hands down BEST PLACE stayed at on 2 wk CO trip

Daniel and everything about the place was awesome. What a great find on a last minute booking when weather turned from bad to worse. Thank you Daniel for such a great time that my daughter and I will talk about for a long time.

What a gem! We got surprised by bad weather for camping and booked last minute stay at the Avalon and could not be more impressed! the work the owner did to renovate -and yet keep the charm and special parts of the building from 1904 - is amazing! Lots of cool amenities, great style and nice shared area downstairs to cook, relax by the fire and meet other guest.

The extra starts go to Daniel, the owner, for making the offer and effort to ship here to denver a couple of things I've left at the hotel by mistake - than you so much!

We for sure intend to go back!

I was really impressed by this restored boarding house. Everywhere you look there is something interesting to see. I stayed in one of the hostel rooms and my bed was comfortable, the shared restroom was beautiful and clean and my bunk bed was very comfortable. I want to come back and spend more time here.

Hotel with Character

This is a hotel with character. Start with a historic structure and updates that retain the historic character but make things functional. I really liked the laid back vibe of the place, from the 60's & 70's music playing in the lobby to the retention of much original wood throughout. There are collections of old typewriters, adding machines, books and other items that enhance the theme.

I stayed in a hostel room which was clean with a good mattress and bedding. The bath across the hall was also clean and functional with fixtures updated to the present.

This is not the Ritz; there is for example, no air conditioning, but there are a number of fans and the highs in Silverton (9,300') were manageable in August.

As a guest, I had access to a commercial type kitchen, much refrigeration space and free coffee or tea or hot chocolate.

The \"hang around\" spaces are pleasant. The lobby mentioned above and the 3rd floor deck are great places to read, chat or just hang out. From the deck, you get a view of much of the town and the mountains beyond.
