Sonnenhof Bed & Breakfast

As you approach the long drive to this beautiful B&B-overlooking St. Mary's Lake you can't help but feel the calm come over you. The place is immaculate, the owners so very friendly yet not overbearing. Breakfast is picture perfect and tastes even better than it looks. Our room was large and there are so many quiet places to sit and enjoy both Rudy's and natures handiwork. This B&B is perfect

The setting was idyllic, the room was so clean and comfortable, breakfast was beautifully served and so very yummy. Thanks for the privacy offered, but also the amazing times of conversation.

We have stayed at Sonnehof on four separate occasions. It is always outstanding. The rooms are soooo nice and breakfast is great. Sonnehof is the high point of our vacation once again.

Two couples spent five nights at the Sonnenhof to experience winter in Estes Park. This B&B was exceptional in every way. We've stayed at many B&Bs over the years, and we have never had such a spacious room with plenty of everything right at our fingertips--towels, sweet treats, tea and coffee, and toilet paper! The beauty of Sonnenhof--both inside and out--was quite remarkable. But the heart and soul of the place are Rudy and Hilde, the warm and welcoming owners of this bit of heaven on earth.

My husband and I have visited 3 times (Alpine Room) and Rudy and Hilde have always made us feel welcome!Beautifully decorated rooms, views, and wonderful food!We'll definitely return, would like to stay in the Rose Room next, then the Aspen Room!

Rudy and Hilde are the best. You will not forget this experience with them. They open their home to you; you feel like part of their family. My wife and I have stayed with them at least 10 times. If you choose to stay here, I recommend at least 2 nights or more. Estes Park and the Sonnenhof B&B are two places you will never get tired of seeing or spending time at. A must while in Estes Park is to drive over Trail Ridge road as long as the road is open. The views and drive will be one you will never forget. Also, a walk around Bear Lake and down to Alberta Falls is also something you need to experience while you are in Estes Park. While sitting in the breakfast room, look closely and slowly while you take it all in. Rudy has out done himself with this room. Rudy is truly a master woodworker, a man using his hands to craft beautiful things for us to enjoy. Rudy and Hilde are the kind of people we all dream about, then one day that dream comes true and we finally get to meet them. Thank you Rudy and Hilde for all you do to make all who enter your home a memory for a life time. Glenn and Diane Cover, Aurora, Colorado

Their food was outstanding I must say, I found myself scarfing down their food even though it was morning and like most people, I have a hard time eating alot that time of day. Overall this was a good experience, only had one problem in that they forgot we were coming...(oops!) Fortunately, the door was unlocked and the key was in our room, we didn't have any hand towels available and other than that, the consequences of their overlook was not too bad although I guess it could have been. They discounted our bill a significant amount which was a sufficient rectification for us and hence I only derated them to "Met expectations". The bed was quite comfortable too. For the money this stay is a good deal. Unless they have a habit of forgetting visitors I think most anyone will enjoy their stay here. And once again...that food was good.

My wife and I stayed here for a weekend getaway in January. We loved the room, the food, and the hospitality. Will definitely come back.

My wife and I arrived to a lovely location and very nice room, the rose room. Hilde and Rudy were very nice and welcoming. He next morning (we had been up for a while fortunately), we were startled by music filling our room from the speakers. But we soon loved the beautiful music to start our day (Recommendation to Hilde and Rudy); make sure you know your customers know how to operate the speakers; we would choose to have them on, but knowing would be nice. Breakfast was stupendous and the conversation with both the owners and guest superb. My wife and I will definitely return when we next go to Estes PArk.

Our stay in the Romantic Rose Suite will be long and fondly remembered. The room was spacious, comfortable, and immaculate (and the bathroom was a luxury). We had our own balcony with a great view (including small wildlife). Rudy and Hilde were wonderful breakfast company, and the food was fabulous! Hilde made the best blueberry pancakes we've ever had! We also enjoyed strolling and relaxing in their spacious garden areas out back. Sonnehof was a wonderful experience for us!!

We spent a relaxing three day weekend here and enjoyed the hosts as well as their delicious breakfast. The kitchenette in our room was perfect for storing leftovers from dinner and making tea in the morning. A great location in the mountains - we saw rabbits, elk, birds, and more right outside our window but we were only a few minutes drive from town or into the national park.

My husband were at Sonnenhof last week and what a wonderful experience! Rudy and Hildie could of not been nicer the rooms were wonderful they have thought of everything, the views were unbelievable If you go to Estes you need to experience Sonnenhof Breakfast was delicious all around a heavenly experience
