Thompson Denver

The Thompson Denver is a quintessential Thompson brand hotel - modern sophisticated design, a comfortable bed and attentions to detail

The Thompson Hotel in Denver is a Hyatt brand hotel that makes me wish I was still a Globalist. But, as I’m currently an Explorist, I still received a lovely printed welcome note and a complimentary upgrade into a corner room.

The room itself was deliciously spacious. The bathroom was clean and modern. The shower was larger and the water was piping hot with medium water pressure – just the way I prefer.

The bed was delightfully comfortable. If I hadn’t been so woefully unprepared for my altitude sickness and inability to sleep because of it, I would have enjoyed it more.

Each day, I received a delightful turndown service, full of chocolate and a note that stated the weather forecast. During turn down service, my person turned on the television to a Calm sleep aid program. I used it the first night and greatly appreciated it.

Plus – talk about details – when my cleaning person saw my camera equipment on the desk, she later brought me a Thompson Denver lens cleaning cloth! Details, details, details.

The food and drinks venues, Reynard Social and Chez Maggy offered some of the best cocktails and breakfasts I’ve had this year.

And – most importantly – the valet understand that when you say you have to leave at 4am to get to Denver International Airport, your car is ready at that time. On the other hand, valet parking is $60. So – there’s also that.

Overall, I truly enjoyed my time at the Thompson Denver. It was close to everything I wanted to experience in Lower Downtown, close to everything I desired in the greater Denver area and offered the service and quality I expect from a Hyatt brand hotel.
