South Denver Pet-friendly Vacations

The rooms at the Kimpton Claret are very spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the amenities are good which makes it even more disappointing that so many aspects of the stay fell short of expectations. The internet is brutal: slow, unreliable, and completely inadequate for a hotel at this price point. Breakfast is very expensive, and although the staff are polite, they are clearly understaffed. The breakfast hours are extremely limited and open quite late, which is frustrating for guests with early business meetings or activities. In the evenings, the hotel closes the restaurant, lobby, and common areas very early, leaving no space at all for guests to sit, relax, or socialize outside of their rooms. This felt very unwelcoming. We also booked two rooms and requested upgrades as VIP Expedia members, but our request was completely ignored. What made this more frustrating is that we know other guests who did receive upgrades. On top of that, the additional fees are very high, which makes the lack of recognition and flexibility even harder to justify. Overall, the rooms are excellent and the hotel has a lot of potential, but poor internet, limited hours, high fees, and ignored VIP requests made this stay far more disappointing than it should have been.

We only stayed one night, but experienced excellence in everything we did and saw.

Room appears newly renovated, nicely decorated with good lighting. Bed and furniture comfortable. Staff is very friendly.The small bar and restaurant have s nice menu and excellent food.

The cleaning lady with the white hair and braid pig tails was so inviting and kind. Her customer service was fantastic.

Staff was great, and hotel was super convenient and nice.

From the entry to The Crawford from the Denver Union Station lobby to the room itself, everything had a special touch! On check-in, the young man who checked us in was friendly and professional. He even offered us a glass of wine, from several choices. The elevator is activated by the room key, so we felt extremely safe. There is a balcony from the hotel overlooking the station lobby, which we were so lucky to see while it’s decorated for the holidays! Our room was… cavernous, with what had to be a 16 or more foot ceiling, soft glowing under the bed lights, and beautiful antique styled furniture. Barely could hear the commuter train’s whistle, it’s very faint even though we were on the first floor overlooking the tracks. Never heard the Amtrak train arrive at all!
