This fine old refurbished hotel in the heart of downtown Denver was fine for a three day conference. As a Bonvoy member, I used suite night credits and was upgraded to an exceptionally large and lovely suite, complete with fireplace – 1042. See photos. The suite had a large kitchen area with microwave and mini-fridge, sink, and coffee maker. No dishes, cutlery, kitchen ware, or dish soap and kitchen towels. It had a very comfortable dining room area, 4 chairs, and a spacious living room area, two closets with a functional safe, and bedroom with king bed. Blackout blinds in every room. The bed and bedding were soft and comfortable, the way I like them, and the lighting and bedside outlets were available. Bathroom has decent storage space, blow dryer, toiletries in addition to those affixed to the shower wall, and a lighted magnifying make-up mirror. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that my colleagues in the standard guest rooms had no mini-fridge. In my view, there is simply no excuse not to supply these in every hotel room. They are inexpensive to both purchase and maintain. The elevators were also a bit of an issue – we were down to 2 out of 3 with resulting longish waits, but they are pretty interesting - the original building elevators from the early 1900s. The bar serves a decent menu of breakfast, lunch and dinner choices, and the food is well prepared and presented. There is coffee available in the morning and cookies and milk in the evening in the lobby, free of charge. To a person, the staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful, from the reception staff to the servers in the restaurant, to the housekeeping and maintenance staff. Special mention goes to Cosette – she is one of the best front desk staff I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. She was quick to offer suggestions, and assistance, quick to go out of her way for you, and quick with a smile and a greeting. She’s a real credit to the hotel. All in all, would I stay at the Magnolia when in Denver again? Yes, but only if I had a room with a fridge.
