The capital of Colorado, Denver immediately immerses you in an atmosphere worthy of films about the conquest of the West. Choose a hotel in Denver without delay and set off to discover the legendary state of Colorado, between the Great Plains and the Rocky Mountains, in the USA. Set in the heart of nature, the city enjoys an ideal geographical position that has earned it two nicknames: "Queen City of the Plains" and also "Mile-High City" because of its altitude above sea level, namely 1,600 metres. So head for the United States for an unusual stay where time seems to stand still.

Your hotel in Denver

Unusual, torn between its desire for modernity and its rich past linked to the gold rush, Denver offers a unique setting dotted with numerous skyscrapers and period buildings. The historic centre, Lower Downtown, coexists harmoniously with the second centre, Downtown, built during the economic boom. Very sunny, Denver enjoys nearly 300 days of sunshine a year, which is ideal for planning your next holiday.

Begin your journey by entering Denver's railway station, Union Station. The whole neighbourhood is organised around Union Station, criss-crossed by trendy restaurants and cafés. While the station's facade is imposing, the Art Deco style of its interior will surprise you. The station can be the starting point for exploring this grid-shaped district. It is impossible to get lost on the wide avenues. Don't hesitate to go shopping in LoDo (Lower Downtown), if only to soak up this special atmosphere by buying a cowboy hat, a striped shirt or leather boots. In the States, anything goes!

Continue with a visit to the art museum before experiencing a sandstorm at the History Colorado museum, which everyone will love. Witnessing a sandstorm in total immersion is an experience that will stay etched in your memory. Then head to the Capitol to reach the famous "mile high".

While the Rockies are a visit in their own right, with grandiose landscapes, wide open spaces and incredible hiking, don't forget to discover the contemporary art galleries of Five Points, with huge inflatable statues, before strolling through the Botanic Gardens south of the city, in the Cherry Creek neighbourhood. As you will have gathered, Denver is just waiting for you to arrive. So don't hesitate any longer and treat yourself to the road trip you have always dreamed of.
