"Denver’s is the first urban outpost of Limelight Hotels, the hospitality group best known among the thrill-seeking crowd for its locations in Aspen and Snowmass, Colorado, and Ketchum, Idaho. The hotel is located just steps off from Union Station, where all the best things to do in Denver are well within reach. After catching a Nuggets game in Ball Arena, or taking in the majesty of Colorado’s natural landscape at a show in Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Limelight offers a plethora of amenities to help you recharge before your next outing. Enjoy arriving back in style and comfort with the hotel’s complimentary Tesla service, book an in-room massage facing floor-to-ceiling views of the Rocky Mountains, or relax on your own with Therabody products and a mug from the Lavazza coffee maker. Midwest coziness radiates in the design of the guestrooms, where wood-paneled bedrooms, leather headboards, plaid throw pillows, and statement pieces made from 32 local artists commissioned by Limelight create the absolute picture of vacationing in Denver." - CNT Editors
"It doesn't get more convenient than the Hotel Born, a 200-room Kimpton located in the hot Union Station neighborhood just steps away from the A-line train to the airport. Mixing plaid, wood, and rich leather furniture, the lobby feels like a modern, upscale cabin. It's mountain chic decor distilled into a high-rise, downtown setting. Spacious rooms blend a modern vibe with Colorado touches; the sliding closet door is a wood and steel combo, blonde walnut and pine ordain the walls and ceiling, and all of the forest elements are contrasted with exposed concrete columns. Bathrooms are white with pops of wood, and plaid pillows sit atop luxury Frette linens. Also on site is Tavernetta, run by the team from Boulder's famous Frasca Food & Wine. Expect fresh pasta, an all-Italian wine list, and enticing small plates. Reservations essential." - Nicholas DeRenzo, Megan Barber
"First impressions?It doesn't get more convenient than the Hotel Born, a 200-room Kimpton located in the hot Union Station neighborhood just steps away from the A-line train to the airport. Mixing plaid, wood, and rich leather furniture, the lobby feels like a modern, upscale cabin. It's mountain chic decor distilled into a high-rise, downtown setting. What’s the crowd like?Bar-hopping hipsters, first-time visitors, and young professionals mix in the lobby. Any perks? Valet makes parking easy (although expensive), and the room comes with fast, free Wi-Fi and standard plugs for charging all your devices. And, the rooms?Spacious rooms blend a modern vibe with Colorado touches; the sliding closet door is a wood and steel combo, blonde walnut and pine ordain the walls and ceiling, and all of the forest elements are contrasted with exposed concrete columns. Bathrooms are white with pops of wood, and plaid pillows sit atop luxury Frette linens. Are there any special amenities?Most of the in-room amenities are rather standard, but the Kimpton's pet-friendly policy means that the hotel will provide fluffy dog beds and water bowls for your four-legged friends. Food options?The hotel has two on-site restaurants: Citizen Rail and Tavernetta. And while Citizen Rail serves up perfectly good rustic wood-fired dishes, it's hard to compare to Tavernetta. The best restaurant in Denver is run by the team from Boulder's famous Frasca Food & Wine. Expect fresh pasta, an all-Italian wine list, and enticing small plates. Reservations essential. Anything else to know?A hotel Tesla will cart you and your friends around town, or you can opt for complimentary hotel bikes. Hotel guests also get free admission to the stellar Denver Museum of Contemporary Art, located just one block away. Bottom line.An ideal location, good value for the money, and comfortable rooms make the Hotel Born a top choice." - Megan Barber
