Blue Elk fuses many of the best things I was looking for in a Leavenworth hotel. Close enough to be walkable to downtown (and they offer bikes), far enough removed to be quiet and spacious. The hotel was incredibly clean and the theme became endearing. Property offers many well-maintained amenities and free breakfast; the grounds were great for relaxing. The only odd thing of note was no one was there and the grounds/amenities were locked up after 8:30pm, which is still primetime for some. Highly recommend for families, couples, singles looking to maximize their budget.

Wonderful stay

Went to the Celtic festival in April, brought the dogs. They not only allowed pets, their price was right on point(others could take a lesson from the Blue Elk on this issue.). The room was roomy and comfortable and quiet.
