Stayed there for a fancy family wedding taking place in the ballroom.
This hotel sets itself up as being luxurious in the old ways of a suposedly more cultured luxurious time. Tea is served in the lobby.
Unfortunately the hotel is simply old and, well, brown. Being this stay was for a wedding we had lots of formal hanging clothing for the various wedding related events. Not the kind of stuff you'd leave in a suitcase on the floor.The first room we got had zero closet space. Most of what may have been a closet in the distant past was occupied by a safe mounted on a set of plywood boxes. There was no room to hang anything.
The staff is very nice and we were given another room.
This room was very large but really is simply a jumble of old and older furniture with little if any charm. At least there was a closet with two feet of usable hanging space once you shimmied your way around the safe and ironing board. I guess people in the old days of Denver didn't dress up much.
Beware too the parking charges. They charge $28 a day for parking. There are many lots around the hotel at a much lower price, especially on weekends. We moved our rental car after the first night and saved mucho dinero.
Bottom line there are much nicer hotels all around this one, probably with closets, that don't look and feel like Miss. Havisham's old masion:
"Humiliated and heartbroken, Havisham had all the clocks stopped at the exact point in which she had learned of her betrayal. From that day on, she remained by herself in her decaying mansion, Satis House, never removing her wedding dress (as a result of being in the process of getting dressed when she receives the letter, she only has one shoe on), leaving the wedding cake uneaten on the table and only allowing a few people to see her."
Time for a serious update folks.
