Super 8 on Tower Road and other Denver, CO Hotel/Accommodation Reviews

Decent hotel, a little higher price than normal, that would be expected I suppose being close to the Airport and trapped in by toll roads. No wireless internet, though they say they are working on it. I grabbed their great Airport parking and free shuttle service ... so the room cost me $72 which included the parking deal. If I didn't do the parking, it would have been about $15 less. Cable TV with HBO. I was able to do dialup. Room was small, but had all the amenities I required for this travel. They also post they have:
AM/FM Alarm Clock, 24 Hour Front Desk, Express Checkout, Golf, Modem Lines in Room, No Smoking Rooms/Facilities, Parking, Restaurant (I suppose its the Moonlight Diner?), Room Service (very extensive offerings), Safe Deposit Box, Skiing (alot of skiers were lodged here tonight), Fitness Center or Spa, Television with Cable, Laundry/Valet Services. Overall I rate it a 3 3/4 stars out of 5. Located just outside of Denver International Airport, the Super 8 has the most affordable rooms in the area. Usually a park and fly deal is available to cover your parking needs at the airport for a room and parking combination, but this night I stayed, due to Spring Break, they barely had rooms available. Rooms are a bit small, but comfortable, and the staff is friendly. Stayed 3/20/06 for $65.35 Total price. Rated 3 stars out of 5.

Unique Qualities: Parking package with shuttle service to the airport

Located prominantly overlooking the convention center and the 16th Street Mall, towers Holiday Inn's downtown hotel with its own bar, restaurant, and rooftop outdoor pool, exercise center, and free wifi/hbo. Decent room service and an amenable staff - a little pricey but very conveniently located. Rating: 4 stars out of 5.

A hotel being re-vitalized to compete with the brand-name competitors, this locally owned hotel shows signs of improvement and flavor, but still resides in a bad part of the edge of downtown with not always the greatest of patrons. One of the more affordable hotels in the Denver area - clean rooms - free HBO and wifi, free continental breakfast and afternoon snacks, local calls, and free pass to the health club behind it (spa, whirlpool, pool, hottub, gym); as well as attached to a nightclub and restaurant, the hotel does have what most travellers look for with semi-affordability. They're trying to improve their clientele, but the location makes it difficult. Centrally located and friendly staff. No discounts other than online booking. Visited 6/30-7/1/06. Rating : 3 stars out of 5.

A simple motel right on Broadway in the heart and close to many popular clubs, restaurants, and shops. Excellent stumbling location when you've had a little too much at the club. We hit this place after clubbing, when Denver was icy and snow packed - definitely not driving conditions for evening driving. Our room was a bit smokey smelling, that musty sense of a cheap motel, but appearance wise it looked like a nice room. Cigarette stains in the sheets though, and a bathtub that clogged up. Room had great party amenities ... microwave, fridge, tv, so had its creature comforts. But definitely a run-of-the-mill motel el cheapo'. We paid about $54 for the night, which wasn't bad for the downtown area. While I'll definitely use this place again for party-adventures, I'll bring my own sheets next time.
Rating: 3 stars (based on location, room amenities, stumbling route) out of 5 stars.
