The Hand Hotel is a quaint and funky historic hotel built in the 1930s in the mountain town of Fairplay. It offers comfortable and warm rooms with good plumbing. Guests enjoy a delicious, varied, and plentiful breakfast, noting scrumptious food. The staff is amazing, friendly, great, and very helpful, contributing to a great experience. The hotel has amazing scenery, history, and ambience, allowing pets and providing a restful sleep. A lobby fire is a nice touch, and the atmosphere is perfect to disconnect and reconnect with nature. Many guests would highly recommend it and definitely will return.
I stay here often for work so I've stayed a few different rooms, and I just love this place. I always feel at home staying at the Hand.

We love old hotels and the Hand Hotel fits the bill! Comfortable beds, clean rooms, pleasant people. I recommend a stop in Fairplay just to stay at the Hand Hotel.
It also has a great view of the mountains and the river
