Hyatt bringing upscale hotel brand to Colorado for first time on Denver’s 16th Street Mall


Hyatt is bringing its upscale Thompson Hotels brand to Colorado in the form of a 216-room high rise under construction now along Denver’s 16th Street Mall, the company announced this week.

The Thompson Denver recently broke ground at 1600 Market St. Located across the street from the Market Street Station redevelopment project, the property was most recently a parking lot.

When completed in 2021, the hotel will rise 11 stories, feature a 90-seat ground-floor restaurant, sixth-floor bar with outdoor terrace, and a number of luxury features, according to a news release from the Hyatt Hotels Corp.

The Thompson brand is part of Hyatt’s expanding portfolio of so-called “lifestyle” hotels — properties that are built with unique features operators hope will attract guests in competitive markets such as Denver. One-of-a-kind hotels located within a few blocks of the Thompson Denver site include the Nativ Hotel Denver and the historic Oxford Hotel.
