If you’re trying to decide what hotel to stay at on your next trip to the Mile High City, look no further. The Maven Hotel is hands down one of the best hotels in Denver. There’s everything from an Airstream trailer serving breakfast in the morning, to a coffee shop, a Mexican restaurant, a seriously awesome bar, a flower shop, an art gallery, and swings on every floor. Ready to check in yet?
Josh and I were so excited for our big trip to Denver a few weeks ago. It was just what we needed to get away from the craziness of house hunting, and a perfect opportunity to relax, unwind, and spend quality time together.
Aside from flying to Germany via the Denver airport, I had never been to Denver before this trip. I have heard so many incredible things though. I’m very happy to say that Denver completely lives up to the hype. That is its own post for another day though, as we ate and drank our way all over town!
Today I want to talk about the hotel we stayed at. Because you guys, it was amazing. It is by far one of the coolest hotels I’ve ever stayed at.
Located right in the heart of downtown Denver, The Maven is only a year old. It is a part of the new Dairy Block development that is going to be seriously sweet once it’s all finished. It’s in the LoDo district of Denver, and is steps from the train station, the baseball stadium, the 16th Street Mall, and some of the cities best restaurants and shops.
Our trip took us all over the different districts in Denver and we were so happy to have this home base right in the center of it all to come back to every night. Plus, thanks to a killer bar and Mexican restaurant on premise, we could end our nights with tacos and margs.
Staying at The Maven gets you some nice perks that we made sure to take advantage of during our stay. You get free coffee in the morning, free happy hour drinks in the afternoon, a free shuttle to anywhere within 2 miles, complimentary fitness center access, and discounts at a bunch of restaurants and stores in the neighborhood. We are always up to save.
One of the things I loved most about this hotel was the design. Every inch of the space was thoughtfully decorated. It just felt so cool. The branding was on point and the decor was all top notch.
Our room had a wraparound patio with a hammock that overlooked Coors Field, its own in-room swing, and a bed so soft it’s what dreams are made of. And thanks to soundproof windows and blackout blinds, I could be right in the thick of it all and sleep like I was on a deserted island. Absolute perfection.
Can I get an art fixture like that for my new house?
Colorado, we cannot wait to be back!
If you’re looking for a place to stay in Denver I cannot recommend The Maven enough. Josh and I are already planning our return trip!

Hey! I’m from Colorado Springs which is an hour away and I LOVE Denver. It’s really grown into an amazing city. This hotel looks awesome! I’ll have to check it out when we move back.
Absolutely in love with your post! This would be the perfect getaway! I am hoping to plan a writer’s style retreat for myself this year, and Denver is so close to me! I wish I could book this hotel now. I have stayed in other hotels in Denver, but had not heard of this one. Thanks for the amazing pics too. Definitely on my list of places to visit.
OH wow! I am kind of obsessed with this hotel!
This looks like you had such a great time. I’ve never been to Denver but you make me want to visit.
I love in Colorado Springs and I kind of want to stay in Denver now just to sit in one of those swings!
This hotel sounds right up my alley. It looks super nice and clean, has free shuttle service, and discounts in the city…sign me up!
It looks like a beautiful hotel! I love Colorado. I’ve been a few times and it’s one of those places that I will happily return to!
Wow, that hotel looks absolutely amazing and I especially love the hammock on the roof! 🙂 I’ve never been to Denver, but I’m always s interested in tips for new destinations to visit. We are currently planning our next trip to the US next year, which would be a week in Minneapolis for a college friends wedding, and then most likely pay San Fransisco & Charleston a visit as well! 😀
