Grand Dames of the Rails: LoDo’s Historic Icons

Immerse yourself in the Gilded Age romance of rail travel within the vibrant heart of Denver. Lower Downtown (LoDo), the city's oldest neighborhood, serves as the backdrop for a collection of hotels that redefine historic preservation. Anchored by the magnificent Union Station, this curated selection celebrates the "Grand Dames" of the rails—buildings that once powered the westward expansion and now stand as pillars of luxury hospitality. From the beautifully restored tramway headquarters at Hotel Teatro to the bank-turned-boutique grandeur of the Renaissance, these properties place you steps away from Larimer Square and Coors Field, blending Victorian elegance with modern sophistication.
