DENVER—The Magnolia Hotel Denver has embarked on a multimillion-dollar renovation here, adding more standard sized guestrooms along with a presidential suite.
Improvements will include a refreshed look and feel to the guestroom design and decor, according to Jim Finnegan, regional manager, Magnolia Hotel Denver. “The Denver hotel market continues to get more and more competitive each year, and we wanted to make the enhancements our guests and the marketplace require,” said Finnegan.
The property is adding 51 standard guestrooms by splitting some of the existing suites. The hotel was originally designed as an extended-stay hotel with numerous suites with full kitchens and living rooms. In response to the downtown market’s shift from extended-stay, the property will modify its room categories and design.
In addition, a two-bedroom presidential suite will be built on the 12th floor. It will feature a handcrafted wood floor with custom wool rugs; solid oak dining table with white leather chairs; fireplace; two full bathrooms; marble kitchen and views of the surrounding area.
Upon completion of the renovation, the hotel will offer 297 rooms—three new boardroom suites, a presidential suite, 196 king guestrooms, 44 rooms with two queen beds and 53 suites, 24 of which have fireplaces.
Finnegan also noted that the hotel will remain open during the renovation. “We are taking rooms out of the reservations system floor by floor, three floors at a time to make sure the renovation has little to no impact on guests staying at the hotel,” he said. The renovation is slated for completion in December.
