Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Cherry Creek
Cherry Creek's finest boutique property — 154 rooms in a handsome tower above Cherry Creek's shopping and dining corridor, with bikes for every guest, an indoor-outdoor cocktail bar, and a rooftop pool with Rockies views. The partnership with neighboring restaurants and the 'Garage' social space downstairs make it the neighborhood's most energetic social hub.
RiNo (River North)
RiNo's most stylish boutique hotel — a 50-room jewel in the heart of Denver's arts district, with a record bar (Vinyl), a craft cocktail program featuring Colorado spirits, and rooms furnished with Denver-made furniture and custom art from RiNo's gallery community. The most authentic way to experience the city's creative neighborhood.
Union Station
Denver's most creative adaptive reuse — a boutique hotel embedded within the restored 1881 Union Station, with room types ranging from standard loft rooms to the extraordinary sleeping car-inspired Pullman Rooms. The Great Hall below is Denver's most beloved communal space, with bar carts and dining programming from some of the city's best restaurateurs.
Union Station
A Kimpton flagship adjacent to Union Station with a facade of Corten steel and Colorado sandstone that references the state's mining heritage, interiors full of local artisan work, and the outstanding Citizen Rail restaurant serving dry-aged beef and wood-fired Colorado cuisine on the Union Station concourse. The nightly wine hour and morning cycling program reflect Kimpton's social DNA.
Downtown
Denver's gold standard for contemporary luxury — a 45-story downtown tower with one of the city's finest rooftop pools and spa programs, 239 rooms with Rocky Mountain views, and edge restaurant and rooftop bar at street level that have become genuine downtown dining destinations. Ideal for visitors who want the full-service luxury experience with mountain access.
Downtown
Denver's most iconic hotel — a triangular Romanesque Revival landmark opened in 1892 that has hosted every US president since Teddy Roosevelt. The eight-story atrium with its onyx and stained glass is among the most spectacular hotel interiors in the American West, and the afternoon tea service remains a Denver institution after 130 years.
