Was there for an event. The lobby was so pretty with the decor. Love the floral display and the sweeping staircase. Clear signage showed us the way and the coat racks were a nice touch. The ballroom we were in was well lit but not too bright that it hurt your eyes. The table was nicely laid and even with the salad and dessert on it, there was enough space. The servers were polite and helpful. I appreciated that they brought me tea while serving coffee. The option was appreciated since usually I don't get an after dinner beverage if it's not coffee. The food served was delicious. The salad a nice mix of textures and tastes. The short rib tender and flavorful. And the dessert was light without the icing on top. The audio visual system worked well and we could hear the speakers clearly. Many attendees found parking in structures or lots around the hotel. But there is a valet option and charging stations for electric vehicles. I believe you can self park but I'm not sure. I parked in a nearby garage. The women's restroom has a little alcove area with a baby changing table and seating. Clean and well stocked, it was fabulous. A lot of my opinions about a location is based on their restrooms and this one impressed me. I would like to come again to experience more of the hotel.

We had only a one night stay in the Ritz-Carlton Denver but had no complaints with our stay. The check in process was went smoothly and even though we arrived before check in, we were able to get in our room and were even upgraded to a suite due to our Marriott status. There is also champagne in the lobby in the afternoon even though we were not able to catch it in time for this trip. We had a suite on the 5th floor that was spacious with a living room/sitting area, large bathroom with Diptyque toiletries, and a separate area for closets. The bed was plush and the sheets were crisp and cool. I appreciated that all windows had blackout curtains however, the closet light did not turn off so it was a little bright throughout the night. I would love to come back and spend more time at this property and even dine at Elway located in the lobby.

One of my children went to a party for UC Anschutz and I stopped in as well. Ritz Carltons are always top notch and this is no different. The layout is great Service is what you would expect. When my out of town friends come to visit I would most def recommend.

I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton Denver and had a priceless family heirloom necklace stolen from my room. Housekeeping entered multiple times while I was out, and when I reported the theft, the hotel deflected all responsibility. I was directed to their third-party claims department, who quickly closed the case without any real investigation. When I asked for further information, they told me nothing would be shared unless I obtained a subpoena. This level of indifference and lack of transparency is shocking--especially from a hotel that markets itself as a luxury property. There was no empathy, no accountability, and no real effort to help. I expected safety and professionalism; instead, I got stonewalling and dismissal. I will never stay here again, and I urge others to think twice before trusting this hotel with anything of value.

Welcome to The Ritz-Carlton, Denver: Luxury Meets Mile-High Charm.
Alisha Alexandra H.

Welcome to The Ritz-Carlton, Denver: Luxury Meets Mile-High Charm. As Denver's first and longest-running AAA Five-Diamond hotel, The Ritz-Carlton Denver sets the standard for luxury accommodation. They've taken the concept of pampering to new heights, offering spacious rooms, stunning suites, and even a dedicated Club Level for extra exclusivity. But luxury isn't just about amenities - it's about feeling welcome. The Ritz-Carlton, Denver is proud to be a pet-friendly hotel & ensured our dog Forbes enjoyed the stay as much as we did. We were transported into a world of refined comfort when we stepped into The Ritz-Carlton, Denver's elegant lobby. The staff's warm welcome and genuine hospitality set the tone for the entire stay; they offered us a complimentary glass of champagne upon arrival. Kyle at the front desk was polished and professional; he greeted us by name each time we passed through the lobby. This attention to customer detail was fantastic and made us feel special. We stayed in the expansive Presidential Suite - this is one of the nicest suites we've stayed in, in Denver. It was furnished and decorated beautifully - modern yet grand. The Presidential Suite was 2605 sqft with 1 Bedroom, 1 King bed, 1 Sofa bed, a living room/sitting area, a workout space, a dining/kitchen area, & a separate dining room. The Bedroom boasted stunning city views and a plush king-sized bed that was so comfortable. We slept like babies every night. The marble bathroom with a deep soaking tub and large rain shower was the perfect spot to unwind. The Ritz had a dog bed and bowls waiting in the room for Forbes. In the kitchen area - The Ritz provided us with the sweetest welcome that included champagne & snacks. We had access to The Club Level where four culinary presentations were offered throughout the day (breakfast, midday snack, hors d'oeuvres, & dessert), a comfortable lounge setting, Denver views, and personalized concierge service. We got breakfast at The Club Level every morning. They had a Continental Breakfast buffet that included eggs, bacon, sausage, bagels, pastries, cereal, fresh fruit, juices, coffee & more. Location is everything and stepping outside The Ritz-Carlton, Denver we were in the heart of the city's action. We were within walking distance of the vibrant energy of Larimer Square, Dairy Block, & McGregor Square. After a morning of exploration, we retreated to the award-winning Ritz-Carlton Spa. This urban oasis offered a haven of relaxation with treatments designed to melt away stress. Katherine at the front desk was sweet and knowledgeable. They had a full menu of spa services, plus a relaxation lounge, steam rooms, and whirlpools. We enjoyed a Couple's Massage with Lindsey & Beth. Both of them were fantastic masseuses with calming demeanors & skilled hands. I had a Stress Relief Massage designed to revive fatigued muscles with moderate to firm pressure. Ross had a Deep Muscle Massage. These were some of the best massages we've ever had. We left the spa feeling revitalized and relaxed. No stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Denver would be complete without a visit to the famed ELWAY'S Downtown. Recently renovated and better than ever, ELWAY'S offered a delectable menu complemented by an extensive wine list. A fabulous stay and we will be back!

Room w/ a 14th floor view!

Very old school classic vibe, with a trendy lobby scent. The Ritz is understated with its low-key decor, but who needs that, cuz when you know, you KNOW. Prepare to SPEND staying here, as the name tag comes at a premium. That being said, I would not stay again because there are other fabulous places to stay in Denver with a little bit more of a playful vibe. Side note: Our last night staying there, some very loud guests checked in next to us on the 14th floor, and they sounded like they were banging around and moving furniture and screaming down the hallway. We didn't complain because we're just not those kind of people, but it was interesting.

See all

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 space had good audio, enough space for up to around 30-45 people, and the staff were very attentive. The food provided was mediocre but I don't really expect much from hotel conference room type food. I have never stayed a night at the Monaco but it seemed like a decent enough hotel in the heart of downtown. They also have free bikes to rent which is really cool. If you are visiting Denver, I would definitely take advantage of that and head over to the Platte River and take in what Denver has to offer.

The reviews raved about a quaint little boutique hotel in the downtown area. The pros: the room appeared to be clean, the bed was comfortable and the hotel was surprisingly quiet for the most part. (Not including the trash truck in the alleyway outside our window at 7am) The cons: The hotel looked nothing like the photos. I was told they apparently had a small fire in the main lobby a few weeks before. The entire lobby had large white sheets covering half of the lobby and bicycles everywhere for patrons to use. The "living room" was also under construction and was anything but inviting. Hotel staff was unpleasant to deal with during check-in. The shower in our room was disgusting. The floor had several cracks and was covered in stains. The bathroom door required both hands to forcibly open and close the door. The outlets nearest the bed were both on lampshades with usb connections and unable to accept usb-c adapters. The desk had two outlets and beneath the desk was a mess of plugs attached to one over used outlet. On checkout, the staff was even rudder then check-in, if that was even possible. They also charged an additional $30 a night for use of "amenities" even though the entire lobby and "living room" were in shambles. Total joke of a hotel. Never again.

Lifetime titanium member here and they gave us no consideration on upgrades etc. Room was not super clean. Had to ask for towels as room service did not come for 2 day and we did not have the sign on the door. Very frugal with the bath towels. Concierge looked like it had a lot , but lots of items missing and dirty and 3 or so employees in the back playing with their phones. Did not like the front desk attitude and it appears other people thought the same. Not up to par with the other marriott properties. I have 2,014 marriott stays and this is how you get treated. They said they were going to give me points for the inconvenience, but never delivered. I would stay elsewhere where they appear to actually care for their guests.

Parking is 55 a night which is a total rip off in my opinion but seems to be average for Denver.

Housekeeping is every other day which I found to be a bummer. Breakfast was a plus and the staff were friendly.

Breakfast is served daily, it's supposed to be until 10, I would leave to drop my son off and be back at 0945 and daily they would be cleaning out the food options. The food was hot or miss with quality, and sometimes there were apples or sometimes bananas, nothing consistent. The first 5 days the cereal was Cheerios and labeled gluten free, the other container had lucky charms and was labeled as Chex gluten free. Thank goodness my child knew that it was lucky charms and indeed gluten. The internet was spotty, I was working from the premises the entire time and often had to use my own hotspot. The washing machine for guest use requires quarters, which you have to buy from the front desk with cash. Two times the washer broke during use and I had to bag soaking wet clothes to hand over to maintenance to take to be washed. There is only one washer and dryer. Very disappointing for a long length of stay. Also in the age of technology there are several hotels that laundry is managed with an app, allowing me to pay via app and see how much long is left and if the machines are available. There is a lack of trash receptacles in the hotel. There are none on each floor by the elevator. Myself as well as others on our floor would leave a bag of trash outside of our room daily as we don't want our room to smell like the food we ate all day/night. On our first full day here we took it down to look for a trash can and the one outside the front doors where people unload their vehicle was overflowing, we noted this multiple days of our stay. Housekeeping were friendly in the halls, they service rooms once every 3 days. Since I was working in the room and I kept the room clean we used the sign on the door to opt to have them come when we were ready. If I saw them in the halls it was easy to get trash bags, towels and cups. One day we requested service and sat in the lobby working all day and they never came by. Keep in mind it's a refresh, our bed was already made and we keep our room clean, I just wanted a tidy of the bathroom counter, towels etc. I had to reach out to the front desk to ask around 415 for service but it needed to be quick because we were coming back to the room. They were able to oblige and serviced it quickly. The refrigerators are very small and not cold, perhaps an option in some rooms for people with lengthier stays to have a larger refrigerator and freezer options. We couldn't purchase any frozen items for our lengthy stay with only a small fridge. The location is nice, easy to get to anywhere on campus or to the downtown area, performing arts area etc. several Ubers are often in the area for further driving needs. Over all of we came to Denver for a long stay I might consider staying here but would look at options with better amenities for food and wash. For a short stay it would meet my needs.
