If you're looking for a place that’s as bold and fun as your concert plans, Hostel Fish delivers. This upscale hostel in downtown Denver blends boutique design with budget-friendly dorm-style accommodations. Located just a 5-minute walk from Coors Field and a short stroll to the lively 16th Street Mall, it’s a social, stylish base for music lovers and city explorers alike. Bright murals, modern shared spaces, and an on-site bar bring an energetic, community-driven vibe to your stay.
Location is everything, and Hostel Fish nails it. With major venues like Coors Field and downtown clubs within walking distance, you can skip the Uber and soak in the city. Post-show hangouts are easy thanks to the daily cocktail hour and on-site bar. The 24-hour front desk and early 07:30 checkout make it easy for early risers or road-trippers. Given it's a hostel, expect a lively atmosphere—but earplugs are free if you’re ready to crash early.
The on-site bar serves up drinks for pre- or post-show hangs, and the shared kitchen lets you prep meals anytime. While there's no 24/7 room service, the hostel’s central location means tons of late-night dining options are steps away. The communal vibe also means you can share snacks, stories, and maybe a slice of pizza after your show.
Hostel Fish is a gateway to Denver’s nightlife. The on-site bar is a great pre-game spot, and the daily cocktail hour kicks off the night right. You're just blocks from bars, clubs, and live music venues, making it easy to keep the party going—or wind down with other travelers in the shared lounge.
Travelers love the creative decor and social energy. Guests frequently mention the friendly staff, clean facilities, and unbeatable location. The hostel vibe gets high marks from solo visitors and concert-goers who appreciate the casual, open atmosphere. Many say it’s a great place to meet fellow music lovers.
If you're a light sleeper, remember this is a hostel—it can get lively at night. Some guests mention that shared bathrooms and dorm setups aren’t for everyone, and there's no on-site breakfast, but the nearby cafes more than make up for it.
Hostel Fish is perfect for concert-goers who want a fun, affordable, and walkable stay in the heart of Denver’s music scene.

Bad
Disliked: I requested and pre-paid for a bottom bunk. There was someone sleeping in my bed when I checked in and the hotel attendant escorted me to the room and she refused to wake up the person sleeping in my bed and make them get in their assigned bed. I had to sleep in top bunk in pain due to leg injury. Hotel attendant did not care to accommodate me as I had paid for the bed a week in advance. I should be compensated. I am a huge social media influencer and could have filmed my experience and exposed this hostel for poor service.

Superb
Liked: It was in close proximity to downtown and other attractions.
Disliked: 1) The floors are wooden in the room and it creaked loudly; was pretty loud as I arrived after midnight.2) The lockers were not large enough for a carry-on sized luggage or backpack.

Great location and hostel!
Liked: Super flexible with check-in which I really appreciated (my flight landed at 1am!). Also stored my bags after check-out.I loved the women-only / male-only bathroom concept and felt safe as a solo female travellerHad everything I needed and looked stylish! Also liked the fact they gave you complimentary ear buds when requested.
Disliked: Reception desk was rarely manned and had to ask staff at the bar to assist on several occasions.Wish there was more ventilation in the rooms as guest odours lingered and made it hard to sleep at times. Was fine for a few nights, but I stayed for 4 and I think for me that was too much. Of course a lot of that is down to who you’re sharing with and not the hostel itself
