The Curtis Unveils Major Renovation

The Curtis, a pop-culture-inspired hotel located in downtown Denver, is embarking on a multimillion-dollar renovation that will entirely transform the guest experience. The beloved “Stay Happy” Denver destination is currently undergoing a complete redesign of its 15 hyperthemed floors, including all guest rooms, suites and meeting and event spaces to infuse vibrant art, playful nostalgia and a dose of whimsical rebellion into every inch of the property.

Once the renovation is complete in late spring of 2025, the Curtis will be ready to reintroduce itself as the ultimate destination for pop culture enthusiasts, art lovers and kids at heart. Drawing inspiration from the hotel’s commitment to artful hospitality and creating places that people go to, not through, the renovation will ensure the Curtis isn’t just about staying somewhere – it’s about stepping into a new adventure. Guests can choose from various creatively themed floors such as Camp Curtis, Play With Your Food, Life of the Party, Knock on Wood on the hotel’s 13th floor and more.

The vision for this reimagination was created by Sage Studio, Sage Hospitality Group’s in-house creative team, whose leadership ensures that the Curtis continues to deliver on the property’s commitment to keeping Denver happy.

“This renovation is all about creative exploration,” said Lizzie Raudenbush, chief happiness officer a.k.a general manager at the Curtis. “We’re infusing every corner of the Curtis with new energy and interactive elements, so that guests visiting from near and far are comfortable to express their quirky, unfiltered selves and leave with a smile and a story to tell. Each of the 13 hyperthemed guest floors has its own immersive feel, crafted to spark memories and create new ones!”

As the elevator doors open on each themed floor, guests are greeted by a vibrant landing that sets the stage with decor and details perfectly aligned to the unique theme. Guests can also expect every room to feature curated artwork, themed clothing items and interactive games to reflect the overarching theme of the floor, offering guests a fully engaging stay like no other. The accompanying hyperthemed suites will take each floor theme to the next level with even more over-the-top decor and cinematic elements to transport guests into a new world of play.

For example, when staying on the “Camp Curtis” floor, guests can expect to be transported straight to the nostalgic charm of their favorite sleepaway camp, with an abundance of wood grain accents, cozy plaid decor and faux animal heads along the walls. To further enhance the experience, the hyper themed signature suite on this floor features a night sky with glow-in-the-dark stars, creating an immersive, outdoorsy atmosphere that truly captures that summertime magic.

The hotel’s iconic meeting and event spaces are also getting a lively facelift to buck the “boring boardroom” stereotype. The Curtis is crafting spaces that cater to creative thinkers and business leaders who believe meetings should be as exciting as they are productive. The revamped spaces and decor will mimic candy stripes with quirky and colorful patterns on the walls and carpet. The use of color blocking, pattern and texture through each corridor, meeting room and ballroom will evoke growing curiosity and wonder.
