From art inspired hotels and rustic guesthouses of the city, to the world-class lodges in the mountains, there are plenty of fantastic options for travelers with any combination of preferences.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 04, 2024.

1. Cozy house in a highly desirable area (from USD 145)

The bedrooms have queen-size beds that can sleep four, but if you have extra guests, they can sleep on the couch or the queen-size air mattress. In the bathroom, you can find heated tile floors and a bathtub.

This house is located in a highly desirable area of Denver — the Lower Highland.

12. Copper Mountain (from USD 88)

Switching gears from the city center to the mountains, we get to explore a completely different kind of accommodation. Of course one of Denver’s biggest attractions is its outdoors, so it only makes sense to include a world-class lodge on this list, and Copper Mountain happens to be one of them. This family-friendly ski lodge, has a slew of activities that include tubing, skiing, snowboarding, golf, and more. One of the most endearing things about Copper Mountain are its villages that make you feel a part of an intimate community while you are visiting. The walking-only streets lined with pavers almost seem to transport you to another time of simpler pleasures, but of course, the resort has every modern amenity one could ask for, such as a spa, athletics room, as well as several restaurants and bars.

Lodging at Copper Mountain is split between three villages: East, Center, and West. East Village is home to apartment style condos, townhomes, and even private homes with easy access to advanced and intermediate slopes in addition to the tubing hill and children’s area.

Center Village is the main area of indoor activities that include shopping, dining, and nightlife. It is also home to the American Eagle and American Flyer lifts that route to beginner through advanced slopes.

West Village is home to Copper’s Ski and Ride School and has easy access to beginner slopes and base camp facilities making it a great place for new skiers and families to take up residence. Transportation between the villages is made easy with complimentary bus services throughout the complex. Copper Mountain offers private lessons for skiing and riding, as well as equipment rentals, so new and experienced visitors alike can have a great time here and get an authentic taste of mountain life.
