The verdict

Who's travelling?

Pick a traveller type to re-weight the scores and re-rank the rooms around what you actually care about.

Read it your way

Doubletree By Hilton Hotel Denver offers a convenient city base for travelers visiting local attractions. Guests regularly highlight the comfortable beds, well-stocked bathrooms with big shower heads, and on-site dining at Knife & Board. The primary downside is that breakfast is not included with the room rate, and the property exterior retains an older 1970s look. 862

Every line below traces back to something a traveler actually wrote β€” open a line to read the original sentence and follow it to the source.

What travelers noticed

  • Guests consistently praise the updated rooms featuring soft closing drawers, lamps with USB plugs, and enormous televisions. 2
  • Bathrooms impress visitors with spacious master layouts, big shower heads, and well-stocked toiletries including scented lotion. 2
  • Travelers highlight the central location as a comfortable base for visiting major Denver attractions. 86

The catch

  • While some guests observe that the exterior looks older and built in the 1970s, others emphasize that the rooms inside are modern and pleasant. 2
  • While patrons enjoy dinner at Knife & Board, morning dining requires an added fee since the breakfast buffet is not included with the stay. 2

Who it's for

  • β€” Travelers wanting updated rooms with USB outlets
  • β€” Visitors planning to explore major Denver attractions
  • β€” Guests dining on-site at Knife & Board

Skip it if

  • β€” Guests expecting a free breakfast included in the stay
