  • Fitness studio, multiple dining locations, indoor swimming pool/hot tub
  • Floor-to-ceiling windows with views of Denver and the Rocky Mountain landscape
  • Sleek design by Denver’s own architecture and design firm, Gensler

And more:

  • According to Mayor Hancock, the Westin DIA will create 200,000-300,000 new jobs for the state
