    Floor 3 is the pet floor!
    Tabetha J.

    Stayed there for a few days while there was fire alarm testing going on at my apt bldg. It was a refreshing staycay for me and my 3 cats. It's cool that they have floor 3 dedicated to pets not just like a few rooms! I loved the free breakfast and complimentary glass of wine at wine o clock! I had previously had great experiences at Element in Scottsdale, AZ and Parker, CO with my cats, so I was pretty confident that this would be at least a similar good time. I just wish they had a pool! I didn't realize that they didn't have a pool when I referred my coworker and his cats to this hotel when they came through Denver! All well. Everything was pretty easy. Plenty of luggage carts, parking and elevators. Lots of space to set up all my cat stuff. Definitely recommend it as a modern and pet-friendly staycay place! The staff at the front desk was nice and helpful as well. The bartender lady seemed a bit hostile. Not sure why. My cats loved the filtered water!

    I stayed here for over a week and felt like it was a comfortable place. Initially, the room wasn't super clean; the floors were dirty and the bathroom floor had questionable splashes but once housekeeping did their magic - it was good. The free breakfast is bomb! It does get busy if you go lager in the morning so the earlier the better to avoid the crowds. Connie was so friendly and quick at whipping out our breakfast requests. They have a free happy hour Monday through Friday and Jamie was an amazing bar tender! The location is a little questionable but I didn't have any issues. The courthouse and bail bonds places are close by. There are some unhoused folks that hang out in the area but I didn't have any issues with them. I walked to my destination and walked back every day for a week (1 mile each way) and didn't feel like I was unsafe. Just be aware of your surroundings. The front desk staff is very friendly and so helpful! Hotel parking is in an uncovered lot across the street. There is some metered parking on the street. The only critiques I have is the AC vent blows directly on the bed, which some may prefer. And the deck was off limits because the owners were working out of the room adjoining, yet I never saw them during my entire 9 day stay. I wish the deck would have been accessible when they weren't around. All in all I would stay here again.

    We decided on the Element as we were looking for affordable accommodations, close to downtown as well as public transportation. The hotel has been around for four years and very well appointed. Even though it is a Westin hotel, it is part of the Marriott organization. For an additional $6 we were upgraded to a King suite. It was perfect as it offered a full kitchen with appliances. Staff was very professional. You are treated to breakfast every morning. The menu is basic, if not light but it accommodates most diets. The venue is full service as it includes a bar, gym, lounge space, etc. The amenities are modern, however I notice sometimes hotels are too fancy with their ornaments, especially the shower and I wander about safety, especially for those who are prone to fall or not be stead on their feet. The all glass shower looks fantastic but there is nothing to hold onto, per se. Anyway, we are in good shape but I write this because I am always concerned for those who may not be that nimble. We stayed three nights and had a very pleasant stay as it met our objective of staying in an updated property at an affordable price. Oh, because we had time to spare from normal check out to our flight back home, they allowed us to check-out at 1PM. If we are in Denver again, the Element has earned our business.

    Loved this hotel! Its beautiful walking in, modern, clean and green! lol that should be their slogan! Checking in was no problem, you need your room key to be able to go upstairs to the room that way no one can get up who's not staying in the hotel. Our room was very comfortable, beds great, ac great, shower great! Newer technology lights motion activated, tv can be controlled by your phone, fridge and small kitchen in the room! Even tho if you wake up in the middle of the night to go pee the lights coming on burn thru your eyes like the sun! lol! you can manually turn them off. Free breakfast and coffee every morning, better then average. Housekeeping came in everyday and tidied up and made our beds, very sweet. They have a small snacks section down stairs if you get the munchies, with a local bakery's ice cream sandwiches that were outstanding! Delicious, we didnt care how much they were #worthit! This Hotel is a little bit farther down then a lot of the other downtown ones, you can ride the free shuttle then walk a few blocks to the hotel. Did notice a $20 per night Denver tax? on check out receipt All in all we loved our stay here!

    A really nice place to stay. The room was spacious and had everything you'd need. There's a lot of space for sleeping and it was a comfortable rest. The view from the room was great. The breakfast was nice because it was included. Everything was good but selection is a little limited. Honesty about what I would expect for an included breakfast.

    Element denver 9/16 Ed & Mike the valets were wonderful but there is a $40 Parking fee...... To bad I didn't write down the people that checked us in because they were super nice. I always request a high floor, a quiet room but unfortunately I got the third floor but they did upgrade us to a suite, and I am very grateful for that.. That was very very nice. The staff was super. I love this cute concept. I have never stayed at this particular chain on Marriotts. It comes complete with a two burner stove. A refrigerator/freezer, dishes, pots and pans, and coffee for in the morning. After being in there a while I did notice that the fans for the air-conditioning were loud and the outside noise was relatively large. I don't understand why each and every Marriott chain has different sheets bedding and mattresses why can't they all be the same! For me the sheets are very stiff and hard, plus you could hear every time you turn over in the bed it was like being on plastic sheets. The bed it's self was to hard for me to get comfortable, argh! One of the two elevators didn't work the entire time we were there. The next morning when we got into the elevator to head downstairs it was filthy, I'm really not sure why that wasn't checked nor cleaned up. There is the area that you walk into that is partially wood floor before you hit the carpet. It was unfortunate because when I looked at the wood floor it looked pretty dirty and then I started noticing the carpet around the room, other things were not very clean. For being a new hotel it was not very clean, noisy, $40 for parking and not the best area of town. I MIGHT stay at this particular type of chain of hotels to give it another try at a different location, I don't think I would return to this one.

    Fingerprints on bottom of tv
    Myranda K.

    We stayed there over a week. The room above walked loudly which made working difficult. The beds had food under them and my bed had food in it. We asked for housekeeping to change our bedding and vacuum. There was still food under it after. There were also handprints on the bottom of the tv. The kitchen kit was incomplete. There was hair on the desk and floor. The parking garage wasn't ideal. There was no signage on how to access it. We had to go up a steep, icy hill to get to it. At the garage you had to exit your vehicle, open the door with your key and hit a button to open the gate. It was in an alley with homeless people around. When leaving, you also had to get out of your car to open the gate. The parking spots were very small. People often took up multiple spots. One night there were groups of teenagers hanging in there smoking. There was also poop in between cars. The hotel is within feet of at least 5 bail bonds and a marijuana dispensary. There were several times I didn't feel safe. In the lobby as our room was cleaned, we asked if the volume could be turned up on a TV. They said sure, but never came back. They did a really good job with the breakfast! Each day they had a warm, tasty breakfast sandwich, blueberry muffin, yogurt and an orange. We wouldn't stay here again.

If you're looking for a cool hotel a short walk from Union Station, The Maven is a great option. We were easily able to walk from the station with our luggage and our room was ready early! The vibe is very cool, eclectic, and modern. From the Airstream-style trailer by the front desk, where they give our churros at happy hour, to the great decor, to the adjoining food hall and cocktail bar- It was just what we were hoping for. A few notes: - If you want housekeeping, you have to ask for it. We didn't know this and were confused why the room wasn't getting refreshed. *Would love to see some small signage about this in the room or mention it at check-in. - Be ready to jot down all the perks when you arrive- from drink tickets for happy hour at the cocktail bar, to % off at the adjoining restaurant and bar, to a free drip coffee at Huck coffee (technically in the food hall? but literally just across the lobby), these are worth taking advantage of! Overall, a great stay and would recommend to others. Shout-out to Kodiak at the front desk who was lovely with all of our questions!

The location really can't be beat. You're right in the heart of LoDo. Coors Field is a few blocks from the hotel and Union Station (which connects directly to Denver Airport) is only about a 5 minute walk away. Tons of restaurants, bars, and things to do are all within walking distance, which makes it extremely convenient. When booking, I asked for a high floor, quiet room so I could work. Upon check-in, they honored that request and also upgraded my room from a Journeyman to an Innovator Suite which I greatly appreciated. That upgrade definitely elevated the stay! The Innovator Suite was fantastic. It had two queen beds, two TVs, a full sofa, wet bar, dining table, flexible workspace, and city views overlooking Denver's LoDo District. The bathroom had a large soaking tub, which I had to take advantage off. There's no balcony and while the wet bar includes a small fridge, it's not really functional for anything beyond drinks as there's no space for leftovers or larger items. You also get a token per night to redeem for a free drink at the bar during happy hour, plus free drip coffee in the mornings. Other perks include free churros during social hour, a courtesy car service within a 2 mile radius, and discounts at various shops. There's also a fitness center, although I didn't use it. There were some things missing though: no pool, no spa, housekeeping is by request only, and no breakfast included. Service throughout was excellent. There's 24 hour front desk service and everyone I interacted with was cheerful, helpful, and kind. Overall, a strong stay with great service, a fantastic room upgrade, and an excellent location, even if a few expected amenities were missing for the price. If I had to come back to Denver and the company was covering the bill, I would stay again. The location really can't be beat. If I were coming for a leisure trip with a similar budget, I'd probably look for a hotel with a pool and spa instead. This hotel is best suited for people who want to experience LoDo nightlife, catch a game, or just be right in the middle of everything downtown. The room I was upgraded to was probably much more expensive than what I actually paid, which definitely improved the experience. I'm not sure I would feel the same way if I had stayed in the original room I booked. 4.5 stars rounded down.

The services were available but were not actively proffered. On the other hand, their spa was utterly fantastic! The hotel food was lackluster and focused on steak over anything else. They had other types of food, obviously, but steak was in plentiful abundance over anything. The housekeeping staff was amazing and on top of their game. The room quality was very good and spacious; larger than most hotels' suites. The in-room bar and mini-fridge were not free despite being labeled an "honor bar." I'm not cheap; I have no issue paying. My issue is the deceptive marketing of the so-called honor bar. The room's furniture was not cheap, but it did appear tacky with the illusion of being of quality. On the positive side, the staff were polite and attentive, and the room was cleaned while I was out. The view was also very impressive. Overall, with all things considered, I'd pick a different hotel; there are better hotels in the immediate area with a lower price tag and the spa is not worth it, despite its attentive and fantastic service.
