Limelight Hotel Denver - A modern alpine-inspired DEN hotel with wood-fired dining and downtown views

Located in Downtown Denver's LoDo district, Limelight Hotel Denver features 700 original artworks curated by the Museum of Contemporary Art. The LEED Silver-certified property offers rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, luxurious textiles, and ethereal bedding. The on-site Citizen Rail restaurant serves wood-fired cuisine with ingredients from local farms, featuring a dry aging room and outdoor heated patio. Chef Christian Graves leads the culinary program, customizing menus for events and regular service. The property includes modern alpine-inspired meeting spaces and ballrooms with downtown views. Connecting rooms accommodate group gatherings. The hotel sits at 16th and Wewatta, placing guests steps from Union Station, Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, and Confluence Park.

Pros

Houses over 700 original artworks from 32 Denver artists

Chef-driven restaurant with visible wood-fire cooking station

Modern alpine interiors with spaces designed for conversation

Customizable menu options featuring local farm ingredients

Heated outdoor dining patio with city views

Cons

0.5 miles distance to major attractions like Coors Field and Larimer Square

1.5 miles from Sports Authority Field at Mile High

“What strikes me is its embrace of alpine-modern design, complete with a curated art collection, a refreshing counterpoint to Denver's urban energy. The dining experience, particularly at Citizen Rail, leans into wood-fired cooking and local ingredients, an authentic touch. Even with its central location, it's the hotel's surprising embrace of pets and thoughtful extras like complimentary bikes that truly sets it apart in my view.”
