The Spotlight on Plaza Hotel Denver Central

Affordable Comfort Just Minutes from the Music

Modern and practical, the Plaza Hotel Denver Central is a 3-star stay located just over 3 miles from downtown Denver’s buzzing music scene. With a laid-back atmosphere, a seasonal outdoor pool, and free WiFi throughout, it’s a solid choice for those coming to Denver for a gig without splurging on luxury. The hotel keeps it simple but comfortable, and its proximity to Union Station, Pepsi Center, and the Colorado Convention Center makes it a smart base for concert-goers.

Why Concert-goers love it

The location is a major win—just a quick rideshare or drive from some of Denver’s biggest venues. If you're catching a late show, the 24-hour front desk makes late check-in a breeze. While it’s not in the heart of the nightlife, that means you’re in for a quieter night’s sleep after the encore. Plus, having free WiFi and a shared lounge means you can upload your concert photos or plan the next day with ease.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends wanting an affordable launchpad for shows
  • Solo travelers checking off a dream concert
  • Couples turning a concert night into a weekend getaway
  • Fans needing downtime after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel serves a continental breakfast—perfect for late risers after a long night out. Vending machines with snacks and drinks are available 24/7, and you’re just a short drive or delivery order away from Denver’s diverse food scene. No room service, but plenty of nearby options.

Nightlife Options

This hotel is more of a pre- or post-show chill zone than a nightlife hub. There’s no on-site bar, but downtown Denver’s vibrant bar and club scene is just a few miles away. Whether you're into dive bars, craft cocktails, or post-show bites, it’s all easily accessible with a quick Uber or Lyft.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the friendly staff, clean rooms, and affordable rates. Many reviews highlight the hotel’s convenient location for concerts and events, and the easy parking earns high marks. It’s not fancy, but it delivers where it counts for travelers focused on the music, not the minibar.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel’s decor is a bit dated, and the area around it isn’t the most walkable for nightlife. Also, if you're hoping for in-room dining or a hotel restaurant, you'll need to adjust expectations. But for the price and location, most find it a fair trade-off.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to Denver for a show and want a no-fuss, budget-friendly hotel close to the action, Plaza Hotel Denver Central delivers just that—without the downtown price tag.

Travis, Craig Mon, 6 June 2016

We checked in and were placed on a floor with no air conditioning. When we went down to the front desk to ask how we could turn air on in our room they then informed us that that's not an option due to construction and then moved us to another room.

Disliked: We were put on a floor with no air conditioning.
