Our story
Welcome to The Hotel Melrose, where 1908 history meets modern-day convenience. Built by the trailblazing Ponsford duo, we’re the last of downtown’s twelve original historic hotels, now a fully reimagined retreat.
Here, it’s all about you. Keyless check-in? Yup. Digital concierge? Of course. A front desk? Nope, because who needs one when everything you need is just a tap away on your cell phone?
Whether you’re here to soak up Downtown Grand Junction’s charm or just escape reality for a bit, we’ve got your back with a modern western vibe that’s anything but ordinary.
Enjoy your stay—and don’t forget to raise a glass in Melrose Spirit Co. to history, comfort, and the little luxuries that make life sweet.

the experience
Inspired by the innkeepers of the past and genuine Western hospitality, we’ve reimagined tradition with a modern twist. Our boutique hotel blends historic charm with tech-savvy convenience—think keyless check-in, a digital concierge, and zero front desk fuss. While you can enjoy a fully digital experience, rest assured our behind-the-scenes team is always here to help if you need us.
A Modern Hotel Experience
Blending timeless charm with modern convenience, we’ve redefined the typical hotel experience. Your check-in is handled before you even arrive (no app required). Your phone is your key, your concierge is just a text away, and your digital guest book goes wherever you do. Simple, seamless, and exactly how travel should be.
An Unmatched Location
Right in the heart of Downtown Grand Junction, our boutique hotel puts the best of the city at your doorstep—literally. Stroll to popular restaurants, bars, and entertainment spots just steps away. Craving the outdoors? You’re minutes from riverfront trails, wine tasting in Palisade, and world-class hiking or biking at Monument National Park.
