Kimpton Claret Hotel is the official name of Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants‘ second Denver hotel at Belleview Station. The hotel has also announced the appointment of its leader, General Manager Keith Siebenaler.
The highly anticipated Kimpton Claret Hotel, which is set to open spring 2024, gets its name from the vibrant shade of red found throughout the state, from the velvety springtime blossoms to the alpenglow of the mountain-filled landscape. The property brings a fresh yet familiar hospitality experience to the area, anchoring Belleview Station’s budding lifestyle scene. From the dynamic food and beverage programming to the understated luxury of the interiors, every aspect of the hotel creates a familiar setting for connections within the community and beyond

Kimpton Claret is in the heart of the fast-developing Belleview Station neighborhood along the growing Denver South Corridor. A destination in its own right, Belleview Station is home to restaurants and shops, a burgeoning tech scene, and easy access to downtown Denver via the light rail. A pioneer property for the area, Kimpton Claret will be home to Saverina, a ground-floor restaurant serving Italian-inspired modern American fare, and a 19th-floor rooftop bar offering dramatic, 180-degree views of the Rocky Mountains.
This property is a collaboration between Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, an IHG brand, DTC Hospitality Investors, LLC, and developer Cypress 16, LLC in conjunction with McClurg Century Investments, LLC, all working in tandem to bring this project to life. Additional partners include KGD Architecture, serving as the property architect; KARAMANN, outfitting the entire hotel’s interiors; and Harvey Cleary Builders, the general contractor for the project’s construction.

“Belleview Station is a destination on the rise, and we are excited to open our doors there next year,” said Siebenaler. “The Kimpton Claret team is dedicated to providing our guests unparalleled service, amenities, and experiences, and we look forward to becoming a cultural hub for locals, frequent visitors and newcomers. With close proximity to downtown Denver and sweeping views of the Front Range, our hotel is poised to offer the best of Colorado.”
