Aurora Hotels with Hot Tub

Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center Pros: -Beautiful hotel -Activities for kids (some with additional fees) -Clean Cons: -Multiple staff were not very knowledgeable about the hotel amenities nor locations of things. Check-in staff was not friendly -Hard to find a place to roast s’mores since multiple fire pits were out and staff said they couldn’t turn them on -Not a lot of breakfast option during the weekday -Overpriced My family, 3 adults/2 kids(5 & under), visited the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center this August (2024). It was our first time in Denver and we were really looking forward to our stay at Gaylord. The hotel was about a 10 minute drive from the airport. Not much restaurants or things to do were close to the hotel but we were ok with that. Upon arrival the first thing we noticed was how grand and beautiful the hotel was. The grounds and hotel overall were very well kept and updated. We arrived in the afternoon and did not have a wait to check in. The gentlemen who assisted with check in was not very happy with life. Didn’t smile and was not very helpful. Instead of welcoming me and telling me about the resort, I had to ask him all the things including: Where was my room located? Did I need a key to get into the pool? Would towels be available at the pool? My room also came with a $50/night resort credit, parking was pre-paid, and we pre-paid for s’mores vouchers as well. None of that was explained or given to me until I asked about each one. If I never asked, I probably would have never received all the things I pre-paid for which is frustrating when I are already spent and planned so much. In addition, I even had to contact the resort after I left because the $50 credit was not applied one of the nights. Once we arrived to our room, we found it comfortable and had great service daily from the housekeeping staff. Water park: My kids enjoyed the water park area. The outdoor slides that accommodated my 5 year old were a big hit. My little one enjoyed the shallow end of the pool where he could stand and play. The highlight for the adults was the lazy river. Towels are available at the pool. Finding chairs poolside were a little difficult on the weekends with how busy the resort was. Not a big deal for us when we showed up before 10am. One downside was when we asked various staff questions like how to get to a certain place within the resort or what was a good restaurant to go to in the resort, many could not answer our questions. One even replied “I’m sorry I don’t know, I’ve never been around inside“ I thought this was a strange response being that they worked there. This was poor customer service in my opinion. 3D wildlife rescue & Live animals My family enjoyed exploring and hunting for the digital animals scattered throughout the lobby. In order to participate, we had to scan a code on the floor and then download the app. Once in the app, you can scan each code on the floor and a 3D animal would pop up on t

As soon as you walk in you are greeted. Your reservation is pulled up and room keys are given with a general description of the hotel. The rooms are always clean. The heat which is needed in winter mo the work’s extremely well. Breakfast includes delicious hot oatmeal which is a win for me. Parking very convenient. We have been coming here for the past year, every two/three months to visit family. We have been to other nearby inns. This is our choice. And because I have taken a special liking to Karina whose smile and inviting welcome is now part of our experience. We will return.

This is a completely updated and renovated facility. The rooms are large and there is always plenty of parking after 8 pm (which isn't something that can be taken for granted!) Staff is friendly and responsive. Room was clean and room doors closed quietly. There is as very large mall just next door with plenty of food options and shopping if you like to do that. The only suggestion I had was slightly better quality sheets. Pro tip - ask for a room facing away from the main street if you are a light sleeper. I would stay here again - it is only 20 minutes from the Denver airport and very reasonably priced compared to hotels closer to the airport.

Habitación: 210 Fecha de entrada: 12/05/2024 Tarifa: 100€ (AD) Lejos del centro de la ciudad, pero muy cerca del Aeropuerto, en uno de esos parques en los que uno puede encontrar todas las banderas hoteleras que operan en el país, todas las grandes superficies y todas las cadenas de comida más o menos rápida. Rodeado de pequeños jardines y parterres y un amplísimo aparcamiento, encontramos este edificio nuevo, en colores oscuros, de cuatro alturas y ventanas cuadradas; con un enorme pórtico con porche, bajo el que aparca el bus de cortesía al aeropuerto, y en el que encontramos la puerta de acceso. Dos tramos de puertas correderas automáticas en aluminio y cristal con una zona alfombrada en medio nos dejan en la tranquila recepción. A la izquierda varios cómodos sofás con butacas y mesas bajas delante de una enorme televisión que proyecta deportes y noticias. Al frente, un espacio generoso con mesas y sillas y enormes ventanales a la calle, que durante la mañana hace las veces de desayunador y el resto del día de zona de trabajo y tertulia. A la derecha, en un rincón, una pequeña tienda de conveniencia con artículos médicos, higiénicos, alimentación y bebidas. A continuación dos mostradores individuales, separados, en madera, con unas grandes pantallas sobre los mismos y atendido por una joven de color. Suelos en mármol blanco y paredes en madera cuidada. Sensación de acogida, calidez y modernidad. Llegamos tarde, muy tarde, y la joven simplemente nos pregunta el nombre de la reserva y automáticamente nos entrega las dos tarjetas que hacen de llave de la habitación en una cartulina. Todo está ya preparado para que nos vayamos a descansar cuanto antes. Mientras estamos yendo hacia el ascensor nos indica el funcionamiento del wifi -veloz, gratuito y estable en todo el hotel- y el madrugador horario del desayuno. Hacia la derecha, en un pasillo en el que encontramos, acristalado, el gimnasio primero y la pequeña piscina cubierta después, atravesamos un pequeño business center con una mesa alta y una silla a juego, con un ordenador con impresora, unos blocks de notas y algunos bolígrafos. A su lado, y antes de los dos enormes ascensores de puertas metálicas automáticas, hay varios cuadros con motivos alusivos a las montañas Rocosas. Igualmente, un mural recuerda el origen del nombre de la cadena. Los dos ascensores son nuevos y modernos. Amplios. En su interior: paredes metálicas y suelo de mármol blanquecino, un pequeño anuncio sobre el programa de fidelización de la cadena y una compleja botonadura con algunos pisos de acceso cerrado con llaves y demasiados botones de emergencia y comunicación. Sube rápido abriéndose a un ancho y muy luminoso pasillo que corre a derecha e izquierda con las habitaciones. Algunos carteles indican la dirección de las mismas. Suelo de mullida moqueta azulada, paredes en vescom gris, puertas en madera clara con marco en blanco y un pomo metálico moderno con un lector de tarjetas por contacto. Tras la puerta la s

Horrendous shuttle service. Stayed one night (6/27/22). We will not stay here again. Unprofesssionnal and poorly trained shuttle driver. Our experience with the hotel's desk clerks at night and the next morning was pleasant, professional and efficent, so that's a plus! The room has comfortable beds, a large TV and modern decor (except for the carpet), but there was noticible wear and tear on the walls, a hot pink (nail polish?) stain on one of the bed sheets (which was put on the wrong way). The free breakfast was nothing speciale, but fine.

This is a fantastic hotel. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good 👍 and coffee is plentiful 😋 I will be coming back for sure

UPDATE…please read! The hotel is undergoing renovations so no concierge lounge (temp breakfast set up), NO HOT TUB, the pool closes at 10pm now and it’s a little rough around the edges. I stayed here because of the pool & hot tub including both being open 24 hours…NO LONGER! They’ve drained the hot tub and I was told they are removing both the pool & hot tub to expand the gym.
