Denver has a lot to offer its visitors: this modern city sits exactly one mile above sea level and on the foothills of the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Not only can you hit the ski slopes but you can party down all night long in this cosmopolitan paradise with a backdrop stunning enough to stare at for hours. With the sun shinning 300 days out of the year, pack your bags and discover the trendiest hotels in Denver to catch some Zzz‘s.

Teatro‘s grand marble lobby will welcome you to its 110 historic rooms and two of Denver’s best fine dining options. A hop across the street from the Denver Center for the Performing Arts (the second largest in the world!) you’ll be at the center of the performing district in the Mile High City. The creative history of the city is reflected in the beautiful decor, featuring historic show and costume photos and art deco furnishings.

Old meets new and hip

Located in the lively and hip LoDo, the historic The Oxford is a Denver dream come true. Claw-foot tubs and bath butler service sits alongside free WI-Fi and iPod docks. The hotel also has a beautiful two-story spa and the oldest bar in Denver, The Cruise Room, which is an actual replica of a lounge on the Queen Mary cruise ship and is shaped like a wine bottle. Beware of the ghosts by either booking or avoiding room 320 (allegedly) as the hotel has quite a colorful history.

If you’re thinking of staying at the upscale Hotel Monaco Denver, be sure to book a few treatments in their onsite day spa, one of the best in the city. Denver’s outpost of the Kimpton chain is as quirky, cute and pet friendly as the rest with modern decor and you can even borrow a goldfish if you find yourself missing your animal companion. There’s also a complimentary wine hour in the coolest hotel lobby in Denver.
For the original Playboys and girls

The Warwick was one of the original US Playboy Clubs in the 1970’s and is still regarded as one of the trendiest hotels in Denver. Located in the hip uptown, you can feel free to smoke anything you’d like (after all, pot has been legalized) on the huge off-room balconies while still keeping it totally classy. Head up to the year-round heated rooftop pool before curling up in the fancy Egyptian cotton sheets.

The pop culture oriented Curtis Denver Doubletree is sure to be a unique experience. Every floor is a different personality and the surprise of what room you get is half the fun. Whether you end up in a Jimmy Buffet suite or a mod suite a-la-Austin Powers, you’ll wake up to a call from Elvis and start the day with a smile on your face.

The Magnolia might be housed in the landmark First National Bank/American National Bank building but the interior and amenities are as fresh and contemporary as you would expect from a boutique hotel. The exterior received a hefty face lift to restore the beauty of the original structure, including a beautiful replica of the original corner clock. The hotel offers a nightly cookies and milk bar as well as a daily breakfast buffet.
