Frequently asked questions

What makes The Crawford Hotel unique in Denver?

The Crawford is built inside Denver's Union Station — a 1914 Beaux-Arts landmark that was restored into a food-and-drink destination. You're staying inside the terminal itself, with access to the Terminal Bar, a handful of excellent restaurants, and direct transit connections to the airport and mountain towns. No other hotel in Denver puts you inside a building that's also a neighborhood destination.

Is The Crawford Hotel in a walkable location?

Yes — Union Station sits at the center of LoDo, with Coors Field, the 16th Street Mall, and Denver's densest concentration of restaurants and bars all within a 10-minute walk. The RTD light rail also connects from Union Station directly to DIA, making it one of the most transport-connected hotel locations in the city.

How does The Crawford compare to The Rally Hotel in LoDo?

Both are strong LoDo boutiques with high guest scores. Crawford is inside Union Station with a historic identity and more intimate scale; Rally is newer, larger, and oriented around the Coors Field event corridor. Crawford is the pick for a travel-for-the-city experience; Rally is better for sports trips or when you want more event-day energy.

Is The Crawford Hotel good for a romantic trip to Denver?

Yes — the historic setting, boutique scale, and Union Station bar-and-restaurant scene make it one of the stronger couples stays in Denver. Pair it with a night at the Terminal Bar and dinner at one of the station restaurants and it covers the occasion well without requiring a luxury-tier budget.
