The Surf Hotel

One of my favorite venues in the Chaffee County area would be The Surf Hotel. Located in the quaint mountain town of Buena Vista, Colorado, the Surf Hotel is all that is luxury. The entire hotel is technically considered a boutique hotel, yet it is reminiscent of a European chateau. It sits on the Arkansas river, and consists of two main buildings. The ‘hotel’ side is the main area where weddings are hosted, and includes the adorable and stylish bar Wesley and Rose, while the back side is more of a ‘chateau’, and has stone walled courtyards and larger suites.

The reason The Surf Hotel makes it onto this list of luxury Colorado wedding venues is due to a few factors. The venue is new and modern, with all the up to date needs to spoil guests. It is also stylish, with fun interiors and high end materials. The service is also stellar- including the wait staff, bar staff, and the on site catering. The setting might be what does it though. Buena Vista sits in a valley surrounded by famous Colorado 14ers, and with the babbling sounds of the river nearby, you truly feel secluded in this luxury hotel off the beaten path of the main road. Some of Colorado’s most stylish couples have chosen this venue for their event in the last few years!
