Hotels Near Colorado Convention Center

The Colorado Convention Center is right in the heart of downtown Denver, surrounded by good hotels and an easy walk to Larimer Square, the Golden Triangle museums, and everything LoDo has to offer.

Your Options

Convention Center Adjacent (best for attendees)

The Hyatt Regency Denver connects directly to the convention center via skywalk — the most convenient option when you're spending a full day in meetings. Worth the premium for multi-day conferences.

Golden Triangle (1–3 min walk)

Directly south of the convention center, the Golden Triangle has quieter hotels with good value and museum access. A few blocks puts you at the Denver Art Museum, Clyfford Still, and History Colorado. Good option if you want something to do after conference hours.

LoDo & Union Station (10–15 min walk)

The 16th Street Mall shuttle connects LoDo hotels to the convention center area quickly. If you want access to Denver's best bars and restaurants on evenings off, LoDo is the right choice.

“The convention center is genuinely well-located. You're ten minutes from everything good in downtown Denver on foot. Skip the hotel restaurants after your sessions — Larimer Square and the Golden Triangle have far better options within walking distance.”
— Dave
