Why We Like It
The gorgeously preserved building and terrific hotel bar pair nicely with a central location. If you love to travel with your pooch, you’ll appreciate the pet-friendly rooms and pet-themed add-on perks.
Fodor's Expert Review
Once dubbed “the Wall Street of the Rockies,” the Magnolia Hotel is housed inside the historic First National Bank building on 17th Street. Elements of Denver’s history are still incorporated within the 297-room property, including a bold clock on the corner of the building exterior. A rare hotel that is both business-focused and pet-friendly, the Magnolia Hotel Denver accepts all breeds and sizes at no extra charge.
