Near the Denver Airport

Consistently named one of the best airports in the United States, Denver International Airport (DEN) is practically a destination in and of itself. And when it comes to lodging, you can’t get closer than the 14-story Westin International Denver Airport Hotel, which connects to the airport's main terminal via a large plaza and offers unparalleled panoramic views of the Colorado Front Range. You’ll also find plenty of other hotels nearby, including in the neighborhoods of Central Park, Lowry and Northfield. While you’re there, hike the trails at Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge or explore Denver’s aviation history at Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum. When it’s time to eat, many of the hotels have delicious on-site dining, or relax with the locals at Hangar 2 or Stanley Marketplace. If you want to head into Downtown Denver, simply hop aboard the University of Colorado A Line airport rail (usually referred to as simply the A Line) that culminates at Denver Union Station.
