Hyatt Regency Denver Unveils $70 Million Transformation
/Residential-inspired design and thoughtful enhancements usher in a new era for the downtown Denver hotel
CHICAGO (April 2026) – Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center proudly announces the completion of its comprehensive $70 million transformation, coinciding with the hotel’s 20-year milestone in the heart of downtown Denver. The renovation introduces a full reimagination of its 1,100 guestrooms and suites alongside new and enhanced gathering spaces, designed to elevate both the guest and local experience. It follows the 2018 and 2019 revitalization of the hotel’s dining venues – including Former Saint Craft Kitchen and Taps, Peaks 27th Floor Lounge and Assembly Hall Bar + Market – as well as its public spaces, with updated design, flexible seating areas and more than 150 works of art by over 50 Colorado-based creators curated in partnership with Nine Dot Arts.
Rooted in a design philosophy of “Slow and True,” the fully transformed guestrooms transition guests from the lively spirit of the city to a calm hush upon entry. Each room features all new hard and soft goods, incorporating natural wood and stone, porcelain and vegan leather—materials that reflect Denver’s natural surroundings, with layered textures and tonal colors creating a balanced, sensory experience. Warm, refined furnishings and soft green accents evoke the Colorado landscape, while thoughtfully integrated elements such as functional under-TV storage, USB-C charging ports, enhanced lighting and spacious work areas offer added convenience for today’s traveler. Select rooms also feature lounge seating oriented toward city and mountain views. Redesigned bathrooms include expansive illuminated mirrors, upgraded vanities, glass-enclosed showers or new bathtubs, and large-format amenities. The result is an airy, welcoming aesthetic inspired by the textures of the Rockies and the city’s urban charm.
Expanding on the hotel’s legacy as a premier meetings destination and adding to its over 60,000 square feet of flexible event space, the renovation also introduces Summit Five, a new 891-square-foot meeting space located on the fifth floor. Designed with a local-first mindset, the space offers an intimate setting ideal for small meetings and gatherings and serves as a natural extension of the Denver City Terrace, a sought-after outdoor venue with city views, allowing for a seamless flow for receptions and social events.
“This transformation represents a meaningful investment in both our physical spaces and the people who bring them to life each day,” said Greg Leonard, general manager of Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center. “We’re elevating the guest experience while also supporting our team with an environment designed for long-term success.”
