I am so happy I found this place it’s truly a gem. I came twice already and will come again. The staff is so friendly and you cannot beat the location. They even offer breakfast, which is rare these days at motels like this and it was a great selection of breakfast items. It is right across from the old town hot springs and natural grocers! If you want to avoid having to drive into town definitely stay here! All restaurants just a block or so away. The rooms were clean though the walls are a little thin, but thankfully I never had loud neighbors (I wear ear plugs always anyways). It had a microwave and fridge and an awesome shower (1 queen room). The sun shines into the breakfast room in the morning which is lovely. I cannot wait to come back again!
What a clutch, perfect find at the last minute. After having an awesome first experience skiing at Steamboat, we explored the town and tried a lot of the amazing food and drinks the local spots had to offer. We really wanted to ski Steamboat again the next day, and rather than take the 2hr trip back to Silverthorne at night, figured we try to book a last minute room, and Rabbit Ears was our saving grace. Had one room available at an extremely reasonable price. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating late at night, the room was perfect to get a quick night of sleep in, and the complimentary continental breakfast was just what we need to get the day started the next morning. I love forward to visiting Steamboat Springs again and will definitely be on the lookout for availability at Rabbit Ears.
Can’t say enough what a great place the Rabbit Ears Motel is! We have always chosen this place for years whenever we come to steamboat. The rooms are clean and have everything one would need, the location is walking distance from town and all the bars and restaurants. And if you are skiing or going anywhere around town there is a bus stop right out front. The staff is always so nice and so helpful and even helped us out in a bind when we needed to extend our stay last minute.
The scenery is outstanding and the mountains are breath-taking. The hotel itself seems quiet a bit dated. You're certainly paying to stay at a historic location that's writing walking distance to the downtown. Bathrooms are very small and narrow. Skiing locations are very close by.
We came to hang out and enjoy the Hot springs. It was wonderful. Check in was great and the front desk was so friendly. They gave us all of the information that we needed. Discount tickets to the hot springs. The rooms were clean and smelled wonderful. Overall great stay.
We always come up to Musicfest here in Steamboat. We had 1 extraday before we flew out and we were looking for something reasonable. Found this place and very pleased. It's an older hotel but clean, breakfast was great and was an al around good experience. Beds better than the Nortic.
Front desk staff don't communicate anything to each other at all. We had booked a five night stay but they had us down for four days, the owner then threatened to kick us out because we had informed him we were staying another night. We found all of this out from the very nice cleaning lady who had informed us about all of this, without the cleaning lady telling us about this we would've never known anything. We will never ever be staying here again. The owner is very disrespectful and I want everyone that reads this review to know this. Also they advertise this place as non smoking within 25 feet of the room doors, but there people right outside our room within 10 feet smoking all day long and being loud at all hours of the day and night. Absolutley horrible expierence, DO NOT EVER GO HERE. Owner and front desk staff are very disrespectful.
I have got say that this motel exceeded my expectations and had a lasting impression because of a particular employee named: Katrina 🥰 she was out and about between the hours of 4am-6am shoveling like a beast (w/OCD-clean, thorough, efficient and repeatedly😆) going over and over each and every walkway solo!!! Annnnnnd when I approached her, being a nosey guest I wanted to know why she wasn't laying salt after shoveling for the 3td-5th round (that I'm aware of). She was very readily approachable and very warm and kind with an authentic personality to happily share with me.... At the wee hours in the morning working enthusiastically to shovel snow efficiently.... To my surprise on her own! I was certain there was more than one person busy shoveling snow to clear the walkways... And come to find out miss Katrina was out before the sun rose for the day shoveling every entry way and accessible sidewalk on her own, not just once.... Over and over again without laying down salt... And not listening to headphones or distracted with her phone, or any other device... Because after I noticed her third pass or so -from observation-I'm certain she did more than what I observed bc I was in and out of my room vaporizing outside only occasionally, and tending to my 3 children as a single mom... But after I heard a person shoveling like a ninja (😆 very quietly) and had noticed that my walkway and every walkway within sight had been somehow well maintained without thee addition of salt and the sound of a crew I decided to find the person who was responsible for shoveling and ask why salt wasn't also getting put down... Mind you we are staying here in the midst of a blizzard with up to 75mph winds and up to 18 inches accumulation within a 24 period.... I couldn't help myself... And miss Katrina was a warm and sincerely caring personality that was just so enjoyable to approach and speak with! I also noticed this incredible woman was older and so full of joy and intriguing energy after discovering she is the one and only person responsible for shoveling the walkways.... So early..... And alone! And a sincerely grateful and wonderful personality to boot! What a friendly and approachable unexpected ray of sunshine to see at such an hour before the sun came to shine itself when-I am not used to encountering other people in general, let alone such a beautiful and wholesome individual that, as it turned out to be my elder!! What a lovely experience! The only other encounter I had was with a neighbor of whom I was unaware was right next door to us when taking a trip to our vehicle with my six year old son he approached us when I was trying to instructing him that we need to be " ninja stealth mode" bc it was so late at night/early in the morning and we were probably the only two people in the world not peacefully sleeping.... And stealing the importance of how loud/quiet or presence/existence is to others 😆 and the gentlemen that ended up shuffling by was right next door and informed me that we have nothing to worry about simply because the majority of rooms occupied are currently fraternity males 😆..... I'm not so sure about that.... Because I experienced a pleasant, very quiet and very enjoyable stay! Shout out to the solider woman shovels like she is loving her best life!! I see you miss you Katrina!!! Thank you for letting by example and doing your job with joy! 10/10
