Super cute house in the heart of downtown New Castle!

Built in 1892, the Ore House Inn occupies a 130-year-old downtown New Castle building that has served as general stores, gas stations, pool halls, and restaurants before transitioning to a hotel in mid-2017. The structure’s history includes upstairs rooms rumored to have once been a brothel, now repurposed into uniquely themed accommodations like the Area 51 room, which features alien and UFO decor. Guests stay in updated spaces that retain original walls, offering full-size kitchens and nostalgic touches such as video games and eclectic art. The property sits within walking distance of local dining options, including Hogback Pizza across the street, and provides easy access to outdoor activities like skiing, hiking, fishing, snowmobiling, and zip lines. Nearby attractions include Rifle Mountain Park, the Flat Tops Wilderness, and the popular Hanging Lake and Glenwood Springs areas. The inn’s hallways reflect New Castle’s mining heritage, and hosts Cora and John manage communications and guest services directly from the property.
