    “The check in process was rough as rooms were not ready when promised, however the staff made it right & were incredible after that! Jess & Hannah at the front desk were amazing & accommodating, and Trey & Andrew at valet were super friendly.”

  • Very nice. To a point.

    “Topline: Location is decent. Hotel in general very nice. Lobby is under construction. Rooms are HIGHLY VARIABLE. Checked in with a confirmed upgrade, upgrade was given to another family due to their length of stay. Ended up in a top-priced room that had half of the square-footage consumed by the adjacent emergency stairwell (anything ending in *27 should be avoided). Small room. No coffee machine. Comfy-ish bed. If you are used to other Kimpton properties or only stay at 3-Diamond or 5-Star hotels as we typically do, this will be a disappointment. I was excited to use this as our new Red Rock's base as we live in a resort town in the mountains, however my search continues. If you have never stayed anywhere nice, this might be a breath a fresh air. If you are a bit more seasoned, as I assumed most Kimpton hotel travelers are, you might be best served to stay in a suite at the Residence Inn next door for less money. My folks stayed there with a full suite for half of the price that I paid for a room a quarter of the size with slightly more snazzy wallpaper and a wine happy hour. Kimpton Denver: I'm gonna be honest - tighten it up.”

  • Ok then.

    “Location is fine. Atmosphere well, just think it could be better, hotel is definitely showing age. They did have a fire in the hotel lobby last week, we weren’t informed of that. So there was about 6 chairs set in the very hot lobby for guests. The room was nice but the air wasn’t keeping it cool. Value was fine, although they don’t tell you there is an additional 35.00 a day added upon check in. Not including parking. The room was clean, the halls and restaurant need a little freshening . Food was good though. Front desk really didn’t want to hear anything about it. That’s it.”

  • Yes it needs a Reno, but the crew make it the best

    “So I will start by saying I was in Denver for a conference but traveling with 3 of my children, ages 22, 26, and 11. This was their first time In Colorado but not our first traveling experience. I’m going to start withe the boring and move on to the essentials 1- location is optimal to downtown and. Denver amenities. As with many city accommodations there is no street parking, valet is available and was what we used. 2- Rooms and cleanliness I wi list as 1. The entire hotel was clean but also going through renovations. Our room was large and comfortably appointed. The available complimentary items are fabulous. There was quite a bit of chipped paint and the guest elevators were on again off again so employees elevators had to be used. It definitely added to the adventure and memories! 3- value was comparable to the other local hotels, actually seemed less expensive. Again the complementary options were excellent. 4- atmosphere! This is my most important measure and thankfully, also my kids and peers. Some of my peers were in other hotels and NONE of them enjoyed the atmosphere as much as we did!! They left their hotels to hang at mine because the staff, Especially Hannah, Nick and the young blond who looked amazing in emerald green, were so welcoming, personable and always fun. They asked about what we enjoyed and didn’t, they engaged with each of us and made amazing food recommendations as well as things to see. You can’t renovate staff into amazing human beings that is something innate and the Kimpton Monaco has that!!”

    “We stayed there due to unforeseen circumstances at another hotel this past Friday evening. It was quite busy. Nate remained patient, calm and was quite understanding. He went above and beyond to help us out. Hotel had great vibes and ambiance. Rooms were excellent, spacious, very well maintained with nice views and comfortable beds. It was centrally located with walking distance to restaurants and other businesses. I would stay here, again and highly recommend it to anyone who wants a quality place to stay.”

I had a coworker on the 5th floor and he didn’t hear anything either! Door guys were on it, did a great job! Housekeeping did a great job! Wallpaper coming off the walls in the bathroom! I LOVED the bigger towels!”

    “Denver treated me very well. I also want to mention that this hotel is very close to the Denver shopping District.I enjoyed my solo trip very well. All the accommodations were excellent. I especially enjoyed the red rocks amphitheater bus to pick us up and take you there and drop you off at the hotel. It was very convenient.”

    “The room was clean, and the staff were friendly, efficient, and welcoming. The male staff member who checked us in last night was especially helpful. He made the check-in process smooth and took the time to answer our questions about the hotel benefits. We also really appreciated another staff member who kindly heated up our food before we left to catch our train so we could eat on the way. That thoughtful gesture made our morning much easier and showed excellent customer service. The only suggestion I have is that it would be nice if the rooms were remodeled or updated to give them a more modern feel.”

  • Great weekend in Denver
