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.

The Avon is an excellent stay- the highlight of our visit to Silverton!

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.

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.

Best place to stay in the city!

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

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.

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.
