It’s an old parking lot, and what a waste it used to be.
Today, it’s the site of one of Downtown Denver’s newest hotels, the Hyatt Place Denver Downtown, which opened in 2016.
True, there is still a glut of new hotels in the Denver area (and that’s to meet travel demand), but the Hyatt Place stands out for a few notable reasons.
First of all, it offers some of the best views in Denver. The best views in bed. As in, you can lie in bed and watch the sun set behind the peaks of the Rocky Mountains.
Rooms at the modern and stylish Hyatt Place feature at least one oversized window that looks out onto an unobstructed view of the Front Range Mountains. How can there be such a clear view in the center of the city makes this hotel seem magical, but it is located just right to land the shot.
From some end rooms with windows on both sides, you can also get a view of the cityscape. Again, this may be the best view of the Denver skyline, because the Hyatt Place is located right on the edge of the Pavilions on the 16th Street Mall, at the corner of 15th and Glenarm. It’s just two blocks from the Denver Convention Center, the hub of some of Colorado’s most exciting conventions and gatherings (including the popular Comic-Con every summer, plus various trade shows, from tattoo conventions to home shows and yard).
This means guests can walk a few steps to some of Denver’s best shopping, bars, restaurants, and entertainment venues, or grab a bike cart, horse-drawn carriage, or the free shopping center trolley to explore the perimeter. wider of the center. A cycle station B (a Colorado bike share program, where you can rent bikes by the hour) is nearby. Getting around is very easy.
Inside the Hyatt place
From the moment you walk through the front doors of Hyatt Place, it feels different. First, there are two slightly different hued check-ins, one more sophisticated and professional and the other more funky, decorated with colorful climbing ropes wound in a creative art installation. Talk about Colorado-style art.
The multiple reception desks are because the building also houses the cozy Hyatt House, which is ideal for longer stays or for guests who want their own kitchen and dining room. You can also rent an apartment here. In fact, this property was one of the first Hyatt combos under the same roof. Combined, this 361-room hotel is one of the largest properties in the city center, but the charming details, design, and friendly service make it feel smaller and warmer.
Business travelers will be delighted to have an open workspace in the lobby, not tucked away in a small, dark room.
The rooms are also prepared for professionals; You can print wirelessly from your room to the workstation on the main floor. Scheduling a meeting? The building offers a 4,800 square foot function room. The design of this property is modern and strategic.
In addition to the views, all rooms have separate sleeping areas and living rooms with a sofa bed. As a bonus, you get free valet service when you stay here, a valuable deal for a downtown location where parking can be hard to find.
The Hyatt atmosphere
The decor at the Hyatt Place is comfortable. It feels more like a friend’s house than a hotel. An elegant, sophisticated and artistic friend. Relax on leather sofas with fluffy pillows near the fireplace and gaze at the snowboard art installation by a local artist. Wood accents are made from recycled trees killed by beetles, bringing the interior of Colorado outdoors and bringing a mountain feel to the heart of Denver. Therefore, the space is not only elegant, but also represents a deeper meaning and reuses materials in creative ways.
Although the Hyatt Place doesn’t have its own formal restaurant on-site, it does have a kitchen that can prepare food 24/7, tables scattered near the long bar, and a great complimentary breakfast arrangement, complete with omelets. made to order, fresh juice, bagels, fruit and more. And anyway, you are within walking distance of 16th Street. You can venture out for dinner, but you don’t have to walk far.
This hotel also features a 24/7 fitness center, indoor pool, meeting and event space, catering, and high-definition televisions.
