STAMFORD, CT—Tribute Portfolio, part of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, has signed a new boutique hotel in Denver.
Slated to open in September 2018, the 165-room new-build will be situated in Lower Highlands (LoHi) on the west side of downtown Denver. Marking the 14th property signing since launching last April, Tribute Portfolio is poised to double its initial first-year growth projections, with more than 20 hotels open or in queue by this spring, according to Starwood.
The new hotel, whose name will be released later this year, will offer Linger, a bar and restaurant located in a former mortuary, and Little Man Ice Cream, built in a 28-ft. tall, 14,000-lb. cream can. In addition to offering views of downtown Denver from its rooms and rooftop, the new LoHi hotel will also be near Downtown Denver, numerous art museums and venues and local sports arenas, Pepsi Center, Mile High Stadium and Coors Field, according to Starwood Hotels & Resorts.
Tribute Portfolio debuted in April 2015 with its first hotel, the Royal Palm South Beach Miami, and has since opened five additional properties: the Great Northern Hotel in London; The Kiroro Resort in Hokkaido, Japan; The Hermitage in Jakarta, Indonesia; the SLS Las Vegas in Las Vegas; and the Riviera Palm Springs in Palm Springs, CA.
Future locations of the upper-upscale brand include Coral Gables, FL; Costa Mesa, CA; Fort Lauderdale, FL; Asheville, NC; Nashville, TN; Savannah, GA; and Charleston, SC.
