Insider Pages Reviews for The Golden Hotel, an Ascend Collection hotel

1 Stars: Awful wedding reception service! (by ConnieColorado)

I attended a Memorial Day weekend outdoor wedding and reception at this hotel. The view is lovely, but other than that there isn't a good thing to say about this establishment. The outdoor venue isn't setup to handle serving guests in a timely manner. It took almost 2 hours serve 90 guests. The food was lukewarm at best and most guests agreed that it was terrible. Luckily the staffed tossed baskets of dinner rolls on the table so that we had something to eat while waiting for our meals to arrive.

Worse than the fact that the food and service was horrible the hotel has since charged the bride and groom have since had their bank a account charged 3 times and the hotel manager isn't returning their calls.

Avoid this juke joint because happy endings aren't part of the service package!

4 Stars: Golden's Finest Downtown Hotel (by Rajeev M.)

The Golden Hotel is located in the historic district of Golden right at the intersection of 11th & Washington St. The hotel sports almost 60 rooms tailored for every kind of traveler. The rooms range from Deluxe Doubles to Creekside Suites. All rooms are spacious and come with the amenities expected of a resort hotel, including free high-speed internet and conferencing space.

Whether you're a tourist visiting the city, a family, or a business traveler, there is something for you. The Hotel is located in the heart of Downtown Golden and just minutes away from Golden's most popular tourist attraction, the Coors Brewery.

The hotel sits along Clear Creek and many of the rooms have a nice view of the Creek. The creek is full of people and activities in the summer and the Hotel puts you right in the heart of the parks, kayakers, and others enjoying the Creek.

The hotel has a very nice restaurant, The Bridgewater Grille, and is just a few minutes walk from many other fine Golden venues. This hotel is not for the traveler looking to save money, however. Rooms generally cost over $150 per night, with the suites sometimes going for around $300 per night. But if you have the money to spend and are looking for Golden's best, this is the place for you.

5 Stars: Great Wedding Reception (by jensuch)

We had our wedding reception at the Golden Hotel and were so pleased. The special events coordinator, Tanisha Lucas, was so professional and helpful during the entire process. They really let us personalize the event, did not kick us out at the stroke of 10, and had a beautiful suite waiting for me and my husband. Oh, the food was great, too. All in all, a great night!
