How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it.

We did the tower tour and it was amazing. Not only do you get to see the 360 degree view from the top, but the tour guide, Sean, is also a historian and is in the process of curating and adding to a flight museum that’s both stunning and fascinating. As you climb the stairs to the top, you see photos, flight charts, and art that tell the story of Stapleton airport and broader aviation operations and history, including stories of many of the pilots, crews, staff, and passengers that were part of history and sometimes changed history. This tour was so much more than we expected. Absolutely recommend.

It took several visits to Denver for me to make it here, but I'm so glad I finally did. I took the tower tour with Sean and had no idea how much more I would get from it beside just an escort to the top for the great views. I learned so much about the history of aviation in the area and the impressive people who were part of it. Sean's stories brought it all to life and you can tell what a labor of love it is for him -- it's such a wonderful experience to hear from someone so passionate and knowledgeable. Being able to have a nice lunch and FlyteCo beer afterward made it an ideal way to spend an afternoon.

We had a fantastic time at FlyteCo! The beer was tasty - check out the stout! The food was great, with lots of seating options and so many games to choose from - darts, bowling, skee-ball, arcade and more. The tour was the best part. There are a lot of food halls we have visited, but this one has an incredible treat. Learning about Denver's rich history was fascinating, and when you get to the top the view is the best. Big shout out to Sean, who made the tour interesting, funny and exciting. The storytelling was thoughtful and very well delivered.

Wow, what a tremendous experience! FlyteCo is such a fun and unique place with something everyone can enjoy! If I can recommend the best thing to do here, it is 100% the Flight Tower Tour with Sean. We had SO much fun traveling through the decades of Denver Aviation history and all of the trailblazing individuals that clawed their way through adversity to chase their dreams. Sean is also the most interesting storyteller and we learned SO much. Plus the view from the flight tower is incredible! We also meandered around the place checking out the sports simulators, arcade games, bowling, axe throwing, darts and pool, eventually sitting down for great burgers, pizza, and cocktails. What a fun and memorable evening!
