We loved the design and view from the Populus. Front desk staff and valets were really nice and helpful. My husband hit his head on a door and they got him ice, checked on him later, etc. They gave us 2 coins for free cocktails even but our waiter upstairs took them but then charged us for the cocktails (that was the only thing we didn't like). We would stay again.

The front desk, they’re amazing. The valet they’re amazing. The fact that I got charged $1000 to my credit card after I booked through Expedia and no one called and told me that they did it , or that they were going to fix it …or the fact that my husband and I were refused to take coffee cups to our room by the baristas… pretty much got accused of stealing… Or maybe the fact that they didn’t offer any remedy for these situations. Like I said they didn’t even call me and tell me my credit card was charged $1000 on “accident” They just “refunded” which by the way hasn’t happened yet either. Paying an extensive amount of money for 2 nights and then having this happen is just crazy. Absolutely no. Just no. What a mess. I’m so disappointed. I thought the “refund” in the notes was because of our experience not because they messed up and charged my card without even telling me.

Overall this was the best hotel I’ve stayed at in Denver, it’s very unique, upscale, and the architecture is out of this world! The location of the property was perfect for the activities that we were doing such as going to see the Broncos game and Denver basketball ball game. I do wish they had their own parking not just valet because parking in the parking garage then walking back is not the safest. And for both of the restaurants I hope they add more to their menus. This hotel is a 9/10! Totally would recommend

BGC Weekend in Denver
We were there for a girls' weekend. We enjoyed the size of the room for 4 women. Check in was easy, room service provided us extra robes and dishes and silverware when our food ordered from a local restaurant arrived without silverware. Due to "eco" there was no ice machine and we had to get ice from room service or the bar, which was fine, but it did delay our celebration in the room. The coffee bar and lounge area was so crowded by neighborhood folks, not guests, that we could not get any coffee on Saturday morning. We understand the hotel is new so there are many people checking it out, but as a guest is was very frustrating. We also wished there had been a spa or additional amenities in the exercise room: water, towels, ice... The menu at Pasque was very limited and breakfast was not served late into the morning. Stellar Jay seemed too expensive but it is a beautiful restaurant. All the staff were very accommodating and kind. We thought it was a very unique space.

Beautiful hotel with a wonderful rooftop bar. Staff were all exemplary. Room facing Colfax Ave. was too loud with traffic noise. Food and drink was overpriced even for a unique "local" experience.

architecturally interesting. still working out the kinks with personnel and customer relations. we had issues with noisy hvac and sewer gas odor. management didn’t show concern with the noted issues and offered a free coffee in exchange for the inconvenience. hopefully as the staff gains experience and can own responsibility the hotel will match its potential.

If you are above working there, dont.
The hotel was well designed and the room was great. I live between LA and NY and use to a bit of "exclusivity" from the staff. The attitude at check in, the restaurant and bar were were just rude. There were a series rules that no one made me aware of and were quickly let know when we didn't know them. Eye contact from the staff was non- existent. Denver is great and so are its people. Maybe someone should remind the management of that.

Cool new downtown hotel
We just did a short overnight stay to attend an evening at Christkindl Market. The hotel is brand new so very clean and all staff eager to please. The exterior is designed to look like an aspen tree and has beautiful nature esthetics in the interior design also. Bed was very comfortable and room was clean, but be aware that the room size is quite small (common for downtown) and the lighting around the vanity area lighting is dim - difficult for dealing with contact lenses and doing hair/makeup before going out. Overall, would recommend as a new and different place to stay in Denver.

We went here for the unique architecture and beauty. It was beautiful for sure. My ONLY complaint was the sustainability preaching. Felt like woke virtue signaling and that's not why we went. But super pretty rooms, comfy beds, gorgeous views and convenient location. Worth spending a night there for sure.

Perfection in Denver
Populus is a Must stay and eat!! Every detail from the room to the restaurant is perfect. The view from the room overlooking City Center was crazy the design is an Aspen tree. Every detail in the room was 💯! This is a must either just a dinner or a stay.

Very novel eco-friendly hotel.
Brand new hotel so pretty clean, nice staff, and a very original design inside and out. I'd say it's the most interesting looking building on the Denver skyline. I primarily chose it for it's eco-friendly claims since I try to travel that way - I took Amtrak to Denver and the hotel is about a mile from Union Station. You can take the free Mall Ride busses to it. The coffee bar in the lobby is nice, all house-made stuff, same price as Starbucks. The two restaurants were a bit fancy for me and I didn't try them. There's a fitness center on the second floor. Note the front doors are on the side of the building by the valet instead of on a corner so they aren't obvious. They're "wave to open" using a sensor there which also isn't really apparent. You could find bigger rooms for cheaper in Denver but I didn't see anything quite as interesting and (hopefully) low-impact as this place. Overall I like it and plan to go back.
