The Broadmoor owes much of its grandeur to its developer, Spencer Penrose, a mining magnate who transformed a small hotel at the base of Pike’s Peak into one of the world’s finest resorts. He hired the renowned architectural firm Warren & Wetmore to design the Italian Renaissance-inspired structure and brought artisans from Italy to hand-decorate the interiors. Penrose and his wife filled the resort with art and furnishings worldwide, while Frederick Law Olmsted landscaped the grounds and Donald Ross designed the first of three golf courses. Opened in 1918, the Broadmoor quickly became a luxurious retreat known for its European opulence and stunning mountain setting.
