Four Seasons Denver: Preferred Partner guide

Four Seasons Hotel Denver is a 239-room hotel in the lower half of a 45-storey downtown tower, next to the Denver Performing Arts Complex and two minutes from Larimer Square. It was renovated from top to bottom in 2021 and has a heated outdoor pool open all year, a full spa and a well-regarded steakhouse. Booked through a Preferred Partner advisor, a stay adds daily breakfast for two, a $100 hotel credit, upgrade priority and VIP recognition, at the same rate Four Seasons publishes.

The Perks

Four Seasons Preferred Partner benefits at Four Seasons Denver

The program benefits are the same at every hotel. What changes is what they are worth. This is how each one works at this property.

01

Breakfast for two at EDGE

Full breakfast for two per bedroom at EDGE, or through in-room dining. Guests describe breakfast here as good and expensive, with a buffet at around $48 a person, so the benefit is worth close to $100 a day for two.

02

$100 hotel credit, $200 in suites

One credit per stay. It covers a good part of dinner at EDGE, or goes towards the spa's high-altitude treatment.

03

Upgrade priority

A one-category upgrade when available at check-in. Depending on where you start, that adds a little more space, a mountain view, or a corner room with windows on two sides.

04

Early check-in and late checkout

Priority for both. Late checkout helps before an evening flight or a drive up to the mountains.

05

VIP recognition

A welcome amenity and a VIP note on the reservation. We ask for a high floor on the west side, away from the lifts.

06

Combines with Four Seasons offers

Preferred Partner benefits apply on top of the hotel's own promotions. We check what is available for your dates when we quote.

Advisor Picks

Best rooms to book at Four Seasons Denver

Rooms were redone in 2021 and have large bathrooms with double sinks, a tub and a separate shower. The hotel is in the lower part of the tower, so views depend on the side and the floor more than usual. West-facing rooms look towards the Rockies. The others look across downtown. There are no balconies.

The one to book

Premier Corner Room

About 500 sq ft on a corner, with windows on two sides. On an upper floor these have the widest views in the hotel, including the mountains from the bed and the bath. This is the room recent reviewers recommend.

Couples

Deluxe Mountain-View Room

About 485 sq ft, facing west to the Front Range. Ask for a high floor: lower rooms on this side look over the roof of the performing arts centre before the mountains.

Best value

Superior Room

The entry category, at about 445 sq ft, with a king bed or two doubles and a city view. Comfortable for a conference stay or a night before the mountains.

Families

Deluxe Room with two doubles

The larger standard room with two double beds sleeps four. Tell us early if you need rooms next to each other.

Longer stays

One-Bedroom Suite

About 910 sq ft on a corner, with a separate living room. The smaller Executive Suite, from about 630 sq ft, is a lighter step up from a standard room.

Special occasions

Presidential Suite

Over 2,200 sq ft with its own sauna, with a larger two-bedroom layout available.

For the best view and the least street noise, we ask for an upper floor on the west side or a corner, away from the lifts and from 14th Street.

Before You Go

Advisor tips for Four Seasons Denver

01

Go high and west

The mountain view is real, but only from the right rooms. A west-facing room on a high floor, or a corner room, is the difference between seeing the Rockies and seeing the building opposite.

02

Take the altitude seriously

Denver sits a mile above sea level. Drink plenty of water, go easy on alcohol on the first night, and leave hard exercise for day two. This matters more if you are heading higher into the mountains afterwards.

03

Use the pool all year

The outdoor pool and whirlpool are heated and open in every season, which is rare in Denver. Tall buildings shade the terrace for part of the day, so late morning to early afternoon is best.

04

Consider the train from the airport

The A Line runs from the airport to Union Station in about 37 minutes for around $10. From there the hotel is a 12-minute walk or a short taxi ride. A car takes 30 to 40 minutes.

05

Ask about the house car

The hotel has a complimentary house car for trips within about three miles, first come, first served. Book it through the concierge for dinner reservations.

06

Skip the rental car in the city

Valet parking is about $60 a night. Larimer Square, the theatres, the arenas and Coors Field are all within a 15-minute walk. Rent a car only for the days you go to the mountains.

07

Allow for tax

Lodging tax in Denver adds about 15.75 percent to the room rate. We include it in your quote.

08

Watch the event calendar

The hotel is beside the Convention Center, so large conventions set the rates. The National Western Stock Show in January and playoff games at Ball Arena also fill downtown. Ask us for quieter dates.

A heated outdoor pool and whirlpool, open all year from early morning to evening, with loungers and umbrellas.

02

A gym overlooking the pool, with a movement studio.

04

06

Timing

When to visit Four Seasons Denver

Denver has around 300 days of sunshine a year. The city is busy in summer and during conventions, and it is a natural first or last night for a ski trip in winter.

June to September
Warm, dry and the busiest season, with concerts at Red Rocks and baseball at Coors Field. Book early for weekends.
October and November
Clear autumn weather and lower rates outside convention weeks. Football and the start of the basketball and hockey seasons bring busy weekends.
December to March
Ski season. Vail and Breckenridge are each about an hour and a half to an hour and three-quarters away, so a night here at either end of a ski trip works well. The Stock Show fills downtown in January.
April and May
Changeable weather and some of the best value of the year.
