The Briar Rose Inn is run by innkeepers Jessika Kimes and Gary Hardin, a Zen monk. It is our intention to bring mindfulness and compassion to our care for the guests and the inn. Above all, our hallmark is to offer a feeling of "home" in the heart of Boulder. We simply take care of whoever walks in the door.
Our gardens offer a private retreat — for personal reflection, a warm conversation or simply enjoying the many different plants, flowers, trees and shrubs. The living room, with a wood-burning fireplace is an inviting spot for reading, meeting with friends, or enjoying a fine pot of tea with fresh-baked shortbread cookies. Guests and staff are welcome to sit in our beautiful new meditation hall. We serve a full, organic breakfast in our dining room or on the cheery sun porch. Arrangements can be made for in-room service.
Guests start the day with a complete organic breakfast, including a fresh-fruit cup (we carefully select fresh fruits daily), fresh-baked sweet breads, yogurt with raspberries, an egg dish with toast, fresh orange juice, and our fantastic homemade granola. House specialties include olive & sun-dried tomato tapenade, southwestern quiche, and homemade salsas. (Recipes have been featured in the Denver Post). Organic coffee and tea are freshly brewed. Breakfast is served either in our dining room or on the cheery sun porch, weather permitting. Arrangements can be made for in-room service.
We intend to cater (where practical) to any dietary needs a guest traveling to Boulder may have. We do not serve meat at the inn, and regularly prepare breakfasts that are safe for vegetarian, vegan, dairy free, wheat free, gluten free or diabetic diets. Please let us know at the time of reservation about your dietary needs so that we may shop accordingly.
