Would you prefer a view of the Denver skyline or of the Rocky Mountains? That this is one of the first questions you’re asked as you check-in to the Four Seasons Denver is a good sign. This, along with the genuine cheerfulness of the reception staff, should clue you in to the fact that your stay at the Four Season will be no run of the mill hotel experience.
Around the world The Four Seasons brand is known for top of the line service and experiential stays, but there’s something about the Four Seasons Denver, which opened in 2010, that sets it apart from the other locations. Maybe it’s the serenity of the Rocky Mountains or maybe it’s the laid-back atmosphere of Denver’s arts district. Whatever it is, it works.
You don’t even need to step foot out of the Four Season’s front doors to experience Colorado’s signature Midwestern tranquility. Everything about the hotel’s interior, from the rich earth tones to the abundance of fireplaces, inspires you to sit back and relax. For those seeking a maximum chill pill dosage, book an appointment at the hotel’s cozy spa, aptly named “Spa.” Indulge in a hydrotherapy session or one of the spa’s signature massages. Either way, the friendly staff paired with the warm atmosphere will ensure you leave without a tense muscle in your body.
If you do decide to venture outside (a difficult decision to make!), it’s only a short drive to the Rockies, a prime place for mountain adventures like skiing, hiking, and fly-fishing. Or, if you’re craving a city adventure, a walk down the block puts you in the middle of the arts and business district, which buzzes with some of the coolest theatres, shopping venues, bars, and restaurants in the city.
But one of the trendiest bars in the area is located inside the hotel itself. EDGE Bar boasts a cool, modern interior, accented by dark marble and contemporary art. Don’t be surprised to spot a “celeb” chatting with one of the Denver Broncos over a few glasses of wine at the table next to you. The atmosphere isn’t the only thing that draws an elite crowd at EDGE; the food is some of the best in the city. Chef Simon Purvis’s tapas style menu reflects his extensive global travels with dishes like Jicama Avocado bites and Kobe Sliders. While EDGE’s extensive wine list is enticing, the local microbrews and always evolving cocktail menu are too good to pass up.
When your head begins to spin from one too many Cherry Lane cocktails, your suite is a short elevator ride away. Take advantage of the large soaking tub with a long soak. As if baths aren’t relaxing enough, a special feature ensures that the water will stay warm forever plus this bathroom’s floors are heated. Before you crawl into the hotel’s famously cozy beds, take a second to enjoy your breathtaking view of the mountains. It will leave you in awe but, trust us, you’ll want to come back to experience the city view as well.
