Sparkling clean with personable owner. Beds were WONDERFUL. We stayed in a courtyard room and it was very convenient. Microwave and fridge were needed as most restaurants in town closed on Monday. Great spot to stay while sightseeing; don't miss Bishop's Castle in Rye, CO. In room coffee was terrific!

Loved it! We did Sunday brunch of eggs benedict and quevos ranchers. Cooked to perfection 👌 and delicious. Truly we thought we were in Santa Fe. Hostess/waitress were engaging and helpful. Owner/chef came out to check on us and was so proud of presentation as well as genuinely interested in how everything tasted.looking forward to experiencing a dinner upon our return. Oh yes we will be back!

Nice room but very few amenities. Can't use the courtyard. Dining room and bar are closed. Not so good coffee in rooms but there is a great coffee place walking distance called Paradise Coffee. Owners do contactless service. Probably won't stay there again. Too expensive for what you get.

I discovered the La Veta Inn during a cross-country trip in 2014. The host was marvelous, mixed me drinks, and we sat in the back room playing guitar until late. She was accommodating and lovely. I managed to swing by again a few days ago, had to wait in my car for three hours until the room was ready for check-in, and everything on the first floor was closed. Sure there was tea in the hallway, but I paid for the experience, and all I had was a room with a small window and not even a desk. No at all what I had hoped when planning the stay.

Very disappointed. A few weeks ago, I reserved a night at this Inn for my family for our trip this summer. Yesterday I received an email that my reservation was cancelled. I contacted and said I did not cancel the reservation. Here's the response I got:
"Dear Michael McGuire,
La Veta Inn is no longer able to welcome you on June 21, 2021 - June 22, 2021."
So much for trying to plan ahead I guess. Now I'm scrambling to find a place for my family to stay.

A well kept and clean hotel within an older structure. Bathrooms are renovated and clean. Right downtown near coffee, food, and grocery.

I was pleasantly surprised to see this little gem. Our room was in the back and very quiet. We brought bbq take out only to find a small kitchen with a table. Very nice. The people are friendly. If we're ever in the area again, we will book here again. Thanks.

I want to just say that this is one of the most accommodating places I have stayed at in a while. If you are looking to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city I would recommend this place highly! The owners or managers do an awesome job at making sure you are happy and comfortable I had my entire family there for 2 nights and would definitely recommend this inn!

Very beautiful and home like atmosphere. The owner is amazing and very kind and welcoming. One of Colorado's best kept secrets. More like a bed and breakfast. If you have had enough of busy and fast life, this will put you back to centered. Enjoy!

La Veta is the gateway to the Highway of Legends. October when the leaves turn is the perfect time to visit. Great place to stay when you come to the Great Sand Dunes. Such a nice family who runs the hotel. Highly recommend it!

Quiet small operation. Owners are very friendly. Not sure of the age, but the building is at least 100 years old and well maintained. Cool “Old Colorado” flavor.

This is a darling place that has a bed and breakfast feel. It's obviously a labor of love by people who really care about their business. Our room was clean and the bed was very comfortable, with high thread-count sheets and a cozy comforter. Really neat place. Even if you have to go a bit out of your way, it's worth it!

THEY GAVE OUR ROOM AWAY!!!

We booked with La Veta Inn in February 2018 for a June 2018 stay. After driving since 6am earlier that day with two young kids, we received a notice that our credit card needed to be updated on their system. We did so within minutes of that notice. About two hours later, we arrived exhausted at La Veta Inn (an incredibly small town with very limited accommodations) ready to check in. After we gave our name, the guy at the front counter said "I just gave your room away." We thought he was joking. He wasn't. He said our card declined. We said "we updated

The LaVeta Inn is very Colorado. The owner-operator couple were friendly and eager to accommodate. The place is a work in progress, but my room was spacious, clean and quiet. Eclectic, charming and a little bit rough, Just like the town itself.

The downstairs restaurant was closed when I visited. In fact, ALL of LaVetas restaurants (and shops, gas stations, museums...) seemed to be closed when I visited. LaVeta is a sleepy little spot and though quintessential Colorado, there's not much to see, do or buy. So I don't necessarily recommend staying the night in LaVeta. But if

We stayed in the mountain room 210, please note you do have to go up stairs.
I love the painted room as it depicted being between the mountains like La Veta.
The bathroom is spacious with a separate tub and shower. The shower has small seats as well.
The bedroom is a good size with a king bed. The mattresses have been updated and they are a soft medium. I loved it and felt like I was sleeping in a cloud.
We found the location to be quiet.
The owners are friendly.

Be sure to check out their restaurant, Agathas, opened Thurs to Sunday.

My husband and I have stayed at La Veta Inn on two different occasions, the first being in 2007 and the most recent in October 2014. I was a little reluctant to stay here again due to the fact that I did not care for it the first time, being that our ground floor room had a view of the alley way. Any way we decided to give it another try, I was pleasantly surprised by our King Suite on the second floor, it was very quaint and charming, my only negativity about this room is the water pressure in the shower, I would have probably been cleaner with a "french sponge bath".

We had the

Overpriced. I like older charming hotels and parts of the La Veta Inn are very nice (hallways are cute, outside patio charming) and other parts meh. The bathroom was updated and clean. The older furniture in the room was cute. On the less good side:
Artist based decor in the room seemed oddly mismatched (supposedly each room features art/decor of one artist). Fitted sheet came off mattress in the night which is major crime in my book. I hate possibly touching the bare mattress. To get ice I had to go to the bar and the room had no ice bucket so had to use my sports bottle to carry any ice back

I love this town and the La Veta Inn was a great place to stay. I never would have known about either without Groupon. Comfortable and large room with separate kitchen. Beautiful courtyard and great food. Also enjoyed the bar and games inside, such as table shuffle board.

Like another review I read there is an unusually large collection of dust on the floor next to the night stands that is noticeable soon as you look over there. And the beds need to be attached to the walls again. Small details that are easily remedied.

La Veta is a great base to explore the region and this was a wonderful

My wife and I stayed here in May after we purchased a voucher through Travel Zoo. We had never been to La Veta and we were not sure what to expect. We were very pleasantly surprised. The Inn was cute, cozy and welcoming. The staff very friendly. The food was good and the ambiance of the place warm and inviting. Rooms were clean and comfortable. We definitely plan to return next year.

Wil I will rate the price range $$$ (Pricey), keep in mind that you can find some bargains during off seasons and off days fo the week through Travel Zoo and Groupon that make the price far more attractive. Keep

Like some of the other reviewers, I am split on how to review the hotel. So I will start with the restaurant.

The restaurant gets four stars. The food is amazing. The chef, Alys, is very friendly and constantly checks with the customers to make sure they are happy. Even if this restaurant were in LoDo, it would still be a 4-star establishment. Service is slow. That's La Veta. You are going to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere, where the pace is set at decades ago slow. Dinner entrees are indeed expensive, but it's a full meal with a salad. The Groupon deal included a free dinner

Well - I was torn on the number of stars to give this place. From the outside it's so cute, and some of the rooms I peeked into were darling. Unfortunately that wasn't true of the room I was in. It was okay - mostly clean (although there was a collection of dust bunnies and an old toothpick when I went to plug my phone in my the nightstand...) I have to believe that our room was next on the renovation list, as there was paint in the cupboard (the walls were just white) and the concierge said "oh - there was A/C in here yesterday - but it's gone today!"

The beds were comfortable
