Stayed here for the architecture and modern design. Clean, modern, hip and no stuffy staff- very welcoming and approachable. Earth friendly. Expensive but worth it. Also close to many downtown Denver attractions. No parking garage on premises though. We had a vehicle but it was easy to park in nearby garages and lots, and bring our own luggage in. Recommend staying here.

What a cool hotel! The architecture and sculpted picture windows, and the views from the top deck restaurant terrace. The two items on the menu that I shared with my daughter from the top floor restaurant were artistically presented, with good portion size. The wait staff was accommodating in the bar area, as we had no reservations. The cafe in the hotel lobby made excellent espresso drinks. We missed our opportunity to dine in the restaurant on entry level, which appeared to have similar menu to the top floor, and perhaps more affordable for a family person concerned about price of entrees. Everything was delightful, including the gracious valet who took care of our car. My critical observation for the hotel restaurants is to perhaps work on front-of-house customer service needs and delivery at bar and on the dining floor.

What an amazing place. We were so impressed with all the amenities, the service was perfect, the room while slightly smaller was perfect for a long weekend stay. Stellar Jay restaurant is a must!! The little owl coffee shop makes great...everything. It is a perfect location to 16th street shopping and entertainment. Larimer square is great, And the thrift store bar is a MUST.

This hotel is overall one of the best I’ve ever stayed at. The design and materials used throughout the building are top tier. It is incredibly clean, and organized. The staff is very friendly and inviting and makes you feel welcome. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The coffee shop, bar and main floor restaurant are convenient and delicious. Same goes for the rooftop restaurant and outside sitting area. The view up there is beautiful. Valet worked seamless and fast, and very friendly. They took great care of my car. The location of the hotel is great too, there’s a lot to do around the area. Overall, if you are looking to stay in Denver, go with Populus!
