The Curtis Denver - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel stands out for its whimsical charm and prime location, being a stone's throw away from Denver's key attractions like Larimer Square and Union Station. While the unique decor, including themed elevators, and the attentive service receive accolades, some guests feel the hotel does not provide good value, pointing to overpriced parking and room quality concerns.
Room experiences vary, as the distinct themes and spaciousness are a hit, but noise levels and AC functionality garner criticism. Although the service is generally seen as friendly, instances of unprofessionalism have been noted.

I found this hotel on tiktok and I loved it. It's like stepping back in time with all the themes on each floor. The TV show friends, Marvel characters, Star wars, and more. The room was really spacious and nice. I loved the bathroom and shower. It was my first time in Denver, and this hotel definitely lived up to its name and location. It's downtown, and they have a parking deck. It was beautiful inside and out. I did not know that since they are a Doubletree hotel, they offer cookies, so this was really cool to find out after I checked in, lol. Front desk staff were super friendly. I will definitely book this hotel again. Close walking distance to food spots. Denver was lit 🔥

Had a great 3 night stay here in December for a work training! Love how quirky and fun the hotel is; every floor has a different theme - I believe the theme on my floor was romance movies. The Corner Room was extremely roomy and I also appreciated the creative welcome amenity with Abba Zaba and the cheese puffs. I thought the location was extremely convenient in the downtown area and super close to walk to other restaurants and bars in the area, including Union Station and Larimer St which were both great to see in the holiday season. The front desk was extremely helpful with restaurant recommendations (thanks Courtney!) as well.
Things to note: heater was extremely loud in the room but figured this would be an issue in all the rooms so didn't bother to note to the front desk. Hey, it must be working hard to keep me warm from the freezing temperatures outside. Also, my room was facing the theater and every night there seemed to be a live band playing loud music (that wasn't exactly pleasant), but luckily they would stop before 9:30pm. I hear they are only here in the holiday season.
Would recommend to anyone else traveling to Denver and needing to be in the downtown area!

The decor was really fun, the staff was really friendly, and the location can't be beat, especially if you are going to the Denver Center for Performing Arts. We also appreciated the underground self parking. Be sure to get the room and parking bundle if you need a parking space. The hotel was quiet and the room was adequately sized with good temperature control and comfortable bed. The only issues were non-functioning USB receptacles on the wall and a drawer that kept wanting to open on its own. The room had a fridge, coffee maker, and a wardrobe with plenty of hangers. The electronic door key worked and they even had a way to leave a tip for the housecleaning staff electronically. Also very convenient to the 16th Street Mall.

I stayed at The Curtis for one night. It is under renovation, so there is no front lobby, and to get to the check-in you need to navigate an intricate maze. When I am finally in my room and went to bed and suddenly I hear a drip-drip coming from bathroom. I walked in, and the vent above the toilet was dripping water non-stop. That lasted all night. I wasn't able to use the toilet as I was getting drenched if I sat down. In the morning when I complained, all I was offered was a free breakfast at the restaurant next door, The Corner Office.Imagine the shock, when I checked my credit card, that even THAT supposedly free breakfast was charged on my card. What a bunch of ripoffs.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We are genuinely sorry to hear your stay was anything less than perfect. We understand our current entrance with the ongoing lobby renovation is not the most welcoming, but hope our fun signage was able to at least lead you in the right direction. We hope once we finish things up you give us another chance to provide you a truly exceptional stay. We are also sorry to hear about the issues regarding your bathroom condition, and the error in billing for your breakfast charges. Please give us a call at the hotel directly and we would be happy to adjust the breakfast charges for you, and discuss any further compensation to make it right. Thank you again for your time and feedback, and we hope you will give us another chance to show you how much fun the Curtis truly can be.

The two rooms I stayed in were not clean. No hot water one of the nights and the showers in both rooms would buzz so loud you could hear it from the hall way. The nicest part of the hotel was the lobby You surely can stay at another hotel in the area that is just as affordable. If you can’t find a similarly priced hotel, the extra money would be worth not having to waste it here.

I am so disappointed to read about your experience. I would've loved the opportunity to address this in real time so that I may follow up accordingly. I will be sure to try to identify the rooms and the noises you mentioned as that is certainly not the expectation we have for our rooms. Please let me know if there is anyway that I may be of personal service to you. Cheers, Brennan Conant

DO NOT STAY HERE if you care for the value of your comfort! We stayed in Room 1506 on a Saturday night for a very special occasion. We paid over $500 for one night. Here is a rundown:
1. This is not simply complaining. I have tried repeatedly to communicate with Alexis, the front end manager, because I believe trying to correct the problem before leaving a review is the right thing to do. I have left multiple VMs and messages over the past couple of weeks, to no avail. She will not communicate to resolve anything (she left me one VM and then ignored the rest of my calls/VMs/messages).
2. If one pays over $500 for a room, one expects some fundamental things will not be an issue. Our 3 primary concerns were: a. The air conditioner had a death rattle and kept intermittently waking us up throughout the night. I made a video of it to capture how loud it was every time. b. The bathroom sink (the only sink in the room) drain was clogged (love brushing my teeth and seeing that it won't go down the drain!). c. The toilet seat being broken to the point that if you sat down, you might slide off.
3. Upon checkout, I presented the video of the obviously defective air conditioner to the front desk. They didn't care and blew it off.
Simply put, don't let the cute kitsch and marketing of the Curtis fool you. The room was blatantly sub-par, the staff was uncaring, and the management is completely incapable of effective communication. Would you want to spend over $500 for that? Buyer beware!!!

The hotel was very nice I loved the art work that changed on each floor. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The cookies the offered were great and the complementary beer and wine offered was a great touch as well. Also it’s very close to 16th street so shopping and eating places were near. The only thing I didn’t like was that $38/day parking!! It’s a spot down the street that only charged $18/day so we got that one instead.

It Looks cool but was not clean. The rooms were busted. The first ones plugs didn’t work so I switched rooms to one with a busted picture and broken closet. With Ovid they say they keep rooms clean and sanitized 48 hours before your stay and I was clearly just thrown in the next available room.

Well, I gotta say, I’m highly disappointed in the The Curtis Hotel. First, their staff couldn’t get their act together and I had to repeatedly ask them to deliver the basics (despite following their instructions to get things). Housekeeping just ignored my requests for cleaning (or the front desk never told them), all kinds of other problems. Loud heater kept me up all night and gave me a migraine - even after they supposedly fixed it. The only food in the place was shut down for a private party, and as a disabled person, that was a problem.
Then, looking at my bill, they just randomly raised the rates for 3 nights despite being on government per diem…so now I’m paying $150 out of pocket for a work trip that should be covered. Every other Hilton has honored the rate for work trips, but these guys refuse to do so.
I also think the hotel is MASSIVELY overpriced for their kitchy floor decor. It’s cute for a minute, but in the end, value for price seriously missed the mark. Sorry Curtis, I won’t be recommending you to anyone, and given the number of choices in the Downtown Denver Area, there are so many better hotels to spend your money.

The Curtis is located downtown within walking distance of the Convention Center and 16th street mall making it nice for food and shopping. The hotel has very modern fun themes in the lobby and each floor has a different theme. The staff was all very friendly and accommodating. This was a busy weekend due to the Crossroads volleyball tournament and was pretty crowded and despite having several elevators only a couple worked and were super slow. The rooms (we had a room with 2 queen beds) are basic. The beds are comfortable but the bathroom is very small. There is also a lot of noise from outside (construction) and other guests. The hotel allows pets, and I’m a total animal lover, however our neighbors had a dog that was left alone until really late and barked for several hours into the night which caused other dogs on the floor to join in. Makes for a long night with no sleep. We felt safe leaving our vehicle in their garage, but prepare yourself to pay an additional $38/day. Seems as if you’re a guest that parking should be included. Overall this hotel is very nice, clean and convenient. Despite the noice we slept comfortably and enjoyed our stay.
