Limelight hotel is my favorite one in Denver! The room was clean, well designed and maintained. The hotel location is very good! Close to all the restaurants, bars, museums and other attractions. It’s a super friendly place. Checking in and out was smooth. The restaurant had a great selection of food. We dined there almost every day because of the yummy food and nice atmosphere. Staffs of the restaurant - Denny, Mell, Dylan, Ashley, Brandon and Willow, etc were very friendly and considerate. We would definitely stay at the hotel again next time when we visit Denver.

We had an incredible time at our stay at Limelight Hotel in Denver. There’s an outdoor mall that’s in walking distance, banks along the way, and many restaurants to choose from. It was also really nice to experience Union Station just outside the hotel. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a hit! We would definitely stay there again.

Overall the Limelight is nice property to stay at that is convenient to Union Station. The front desk associates were rude and busy talking about something to greet me or begin my check in process when I approached desk (I was only one checking in at time). I had to ask them if I could check in and the reply “in just a minute” was not what I would have expected. The room was surprisingly nice. My only complaint was the quality of the mattress with two significantly indented areas on both left and right side of bed. Traveling solo, I was able to find an ok position in the middle of the bed. I’ve traveled a lot and have never experienced such a poor quality in a mattress and especially not in a hotel that appears to be on the newer side.

This I a gorgeous property, the lobby is beautifully appointed and done like a living room so people actually congregate there. The location cannot be beat. Steps from Union Station and even with the trains outside my window, my room was so quiet. My room was huge, lots of natural wood, blackout curtains, plenty of storage, and a lovely bathroom. Do bring your own shampoo and conditioner, the ones provided weren’t optimal. The restaurant is closed right now so there isn’t any room service, but, breakfast is served in the lobby daily and there are tons of great places to eat within walking distance. I have only one complaint, but it’s a biggie, the beds!! So uncomfortable, poor quality, scratchy sheets, they think two flat sheets sandwiched around the saddest duvet comforter ever is a blanket, and the pillows are terrible. This hotel is too wonderful to have Motel 6 bedding.
