    There was a funny smell at the hotel hallway and the room. I am not sure the air-conditioning was working well. It was missing fresh air, that's all. After 12+ hours travel, I had to wait for over 20 minutes at the desk for check-in as the lady was on the phone.

    The room was very spacious. The breakfast at the restaurant was tasty, but the portions were large.

    The bed was comfortable, but needs more blankets available. An easily accessible vending machine or wet bar would be nice.

    The facilities (gym and lobby) are nice. Loved the toiletries.

    Housekeeping schedule was pretty frustrating. We only had our room cleaned twice by our choice. Both times we knew we’d be out of the room for the majority of the day. On both occasions the room was not cleaned by the time we got back in the late afternoon. The first time we asked, and they sent someone immediately up. It still was rather frustrating. The second time, we left early in the morning and didn’t get back till after 4:20 PM. The housekeeper had just opened our door. Only two towels were stocked in the room, we needed extra towels. I would have appreciated better communication with our room cleaning.

    Breakfast was amazing every day, we were so thankful we added that package to our reservation. Overall, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Our room was clean, elegantly, decorated, and really a treat to stay in.

    Rooms are a little small but ok. There really isn't much lighting though so rooms seem really dark even with every light on.

    Excellent downtown location - easy walking to everywhere. The in-house restaurant Panzano was superb - no need to venture out into the cold if you want a great meal in a great restaurant.

    Pleasant stay, Panzanos is great

    • Essential King Room with Walk-In Shower

    Having a reading light and charging capability on only one side of the king size bed (409) was very inconvenient. There was no lighting or electrical outlet on the left side of the bed. The large box only served as a stand for a glass of water and a book which I couldn't read due to lack of light. A lamp like the one on the desk would have been nice or one like on the right would have been grand. When we stay again, I would ask for a room with 2 queens which would have lighting in between the bed. It was a minus 0 day and night. Halls and elevators were cold but rooms were fine.

    The staff was responsive. Happy hour was fun, Panzanos has fine food. Price is reasonable. Text message from front desk to check on our comfort was nice.

    You have to pay an arm and a leg for valet parking on top of your "resort fee" or you can park in a parking garage for a little less but its not connected to this hotel and still expensive

    location was great, walking distance to Coors field and places to eat. The hotel was soooo quiet! we saw people in the lobby and in the elevator but once we got into our room it felt like we were the only ones there. Staff was so friendly and helpful.

    I did not like the Panzano restaurant. The service was terrible. The staff at breakfast was lethargic and not attentive.

    The staff was nice and the hotel itself was lovely. The wine hour and the whiskey tasting were a really nice touch.

    I think the work on 16th Street and on top of the COVID lockdowns has had an effect on the hotel. It is not as busy or as friendly as it used to be. My check in young lady was excellent but a complete contrast with the rude and miserable young lady on check out.

    I’ve stayed at the Monaco for many years when on the way up to Breckenridge. So, it’s a familiar hotel for me.
