This appears to be a well-maintained hotel. There is enough space in the room to move self as well as baggage. My room had a coffee maker, TV, Table, Chairs, laundry facility, hair dryer, WiFi access but no Microwave Oven. Internet access is also available near the lobby 24 hours free of charge. The 14th floor (roof top) restaurant offers... More

I had read the TripAdvisor reviews of Hotel VQ before I went, but I didn't have a choice of where to stay, so I ended up there, hoping for the best. Unfortunately, it wasn't the best. The neighborhood seems a bit sketchy, and I would not have been comfortable walking in the area alone. Good points: friendly front desk staff,... More

I stayed at this hotel back when it was still the Red Lion and didn't have any problems with it. This time was way different. The biggest problem we had was the air system, it was super hot when we checked in so we (thought) turned the air down to cool it off. At the same time we called the... More

This was our 2nd time staying at this hotel. We go every year to see the Penguins play the Avs. The free shuttle service is excellent- very prompt. The staff were great from the front desk gals to the bartender. We stayed in a king room on the 4th floor. The room was clean, kind of dated, but an amazing... More

The rooms are kind of basic, spacious, but most importantly clean. There is free parking available outside and free wireless internet, which was working the entire time and the connection was never lost. The view of downtown from the restaurant on the 14th floor is great. They also have free shuttle to the downtown which is very convenient and the... More

It smells bad, the walls are stained, and our comforter had a HUGE stain on it. SO GROSS!!! We were told we were getting two queen beds and instead got... More

I booked in advance for the package that didn't let you make any changes to your reservation, and got it at a very low $60/night which I thought was fantastic value for the location and hotel. It's probably not quite as reasonable when Broncos games are on though. The room seemed very nice to me, great wide view of the... More
