CHICAGO (November 19, 2015) – Today, the dual-branded Hyatt Place Denver/Downtown and Hyatt House Denver/Downtown open, which mark the first combined Hyatt Place and Hyatt House hotels in the Denver area. The hotels create an experience that offers guests two different hotel experiences under one roof in one great location.
Hyatt Place Denver/Downtown is the perfect choice for the tech-savvy traveler, thanks to the brand’s intuitive design, casual atmosphere and modern conveniences, such as free Wi-Fi access with seamless connectivity and 24-hour food options. Hyatt House Denver/Downtown offers a residentially inspired, extended stay experience, combining the service and ease of hotel living with the spaces and places that help make guests feel more at home. The pairing of these two urban hotels makes this 361-room property one of the top 10 largest hotel locations in the downtown Denver area.
“We’re thrilled to introduce the first combined Hyatt Place and Hyatt House hotels to Denver and to join the esteemed Mile High City community,” said General Manager Chad Cuddy, Hyatt Place Denver/Downtown and Hyatt House Denver/Downtown. “Our guests can appreciate the contemporary design and spacious layout of our guestrooms – from the separate spaces to sleep and work at Hyatt Place to the apartment-style suites with real kitchens at Hyatt House. With the spaces that fit the needs of our guests, coupled with the hotels’ prime location in Denver’s burgeoning downtown, we are poised for success.”
Hyatt Place Denver/Downtown and Hyatt House Denver/Downtown infuse Colorado-influenced design throughout the hotels with a blend of mountainous themes and Denver-centric elements – from recycled beetle kill wood accents and handcrafted local artwork in a regionalized lobby, to Colorado craft brews on tap and on-demand amenities inspired by the Centennial State’s infectious spirit. The hotels’ interiors bring nature indoors with artwork and décor that symbolizes the brisk mountain peaks and the airy valleys that Colorado natives call home.
Denver is a city that loves and values its visual arts; not only do Hyatt Place Denver/Downtown and Hyatt House Denver/Downtown fit right in, they were built to stand out. Designed by Simeone Deary Design Group (SDDG) with local art activation through Forse Art Consulting, the hotels’ shared lobby features art installations from celebrated Denver talents, including Sabin Aell. Highlighted pieces include a large Sabin Aell mural, covering a nine-foot wall in the Hyatt Place Gallery, inspired by the organic flowing lines found in a topography map of Colorado; and an original, dynamic conversational piece that represents Denver’s expanding and cutting edge art scene behind the Hyatt House Host Stand.
Located in booming Downtown Denver, where business, culture and microbreweries intersect, the hotels are a short walk from the Colorado Convention Center, as well as some of the Mile High City’s most popular attractions, including Denver Pavilions, Denver Center for Performing Arts, and the Denver Art Museum.
