THE BROSS HOTEL BED-AND-BREAKFAST INN FOR SALE, PAONIA, COLORADO Colorado Bed-and-Breakfast Inn, B&B for sale in Western Colorado A favorite destination inn for Western Colorado tourists, travelers, and vacationers is the historic Bross Hotel in Paonia, Colorado, a 10-room bed-and-breakfast inn. Built in 1906, the Bross has served the Paonia community for well over a century, providing a comfortable and relaxing environment for its guests. Its exterior walls are solid red brick, giving it a sturdy and appealing appearance. Inside, the main floor has an entryway and reception area, a breakfast room capable of serving over 20 people, a commercial kitchen, and office. Downstairs is a TV room and meeting room, two 1/2 baths, laundry and utility room, and the owner's accommodations.

Excellent bookings in Colorado B&B for sale, income-producing property The Bross Hotel was acquired in 2017 by Kevin and Karen Kropp, a well-known couple in Paonia. The inn was in need of modernization with its booking, marketing, and management systems. Amazingly enough, just days after signing the contracts on the Bross, Kevin and Karen's house burned to the ground, with their daughter barely escaping the flames. Now they were committed! While Kevin is a full-time orchardist, growing apples, cherries, peaches, plums, and apricots on several different orchards in the North Fork Valley, he and Karen put their full efforts into improving the Bross's bookings, systems, facilities, and reputation. Their efforts have been very successful, as they built new manager's quarters, installed a new modern booking system, marketed the property on a national basis, and doubled the occupancy rate. Despite closing the inn for December, January, and February, the Bross is showing good returns. Karen and Kevin think it's time to enjoy the rewards of their hard work and start traveling.
