What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and Wallpaper*.
It’s an ultra-contemporary building on the site of an old iron works, in a neighborhood that was fairly recently an industrial one.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set along Brighton Boulevard in RiNo, surrounded by vibrant street murals, craft breweries, contemporary galleries, and converted industrial warehouses.
The rooms
Scandinavian minimalism pairs with Japanese soaking tubs, city-facing beds, and roll-up glass garage doors that let in fresh mountain air.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
On the eighth floor, a heated plunge pool and hot tub look out toward the Rocky Mountains and downtown skyline.
The gym
The ground-floor gym is equipped with Peloton bikes, free weights, and a roll-up garage window.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
On the roof, Cimera serves Pan-Latin plates and agave cocktails. Downstairs, the market hall holds wood-fired Mediterranean cooking, sushi, and barbecue.
The hotel’s industrial mix of concrete, birch wood and glass is softened by a bevy of natural outdoor touches, such as a green courtyard...
How it began
An enclosed bridge joins the contemporary steel-clad high-rise with an 1880s iron foundry building transformed into the city's first market hall.
