The Crawford Hotel at Denver Union Station is thrilled to have been honored for the third year in a row with a MICHELIN One Key award from the MICHELIN Guide.
The MICHELIN Guide handed out 2,832 MICHELIN Keys for 2026 to fine hotels around the world that meet its high standards for hospitality and quality. MICHELIN describes a One Key hotel as “a true gem with personality. Service always goes the extra mile, and the hotel provides much more than others in its price range.”
The Crawford is housed within the iconic Denver Union Station, which originally opened in 1881 and was beautifully revitalized in 2014. The hotel completed a luxurious refresh of its 112-guest rooms in 2024 that was inspired by the golden age of train travel, blending opulent furnishings, jewel-toned finishes, and locally inspired art with contemporary comforts such as live harp music in the Hotel Parlour and in-room cocktails from The Cooper Lounge.
The MICHELIN Guide describes The Crawford as “impressively luxurious, with nods to Victorian elegance, Art Deco swankiness, and contemporary post-industrial loft living” and touts the LoDo location as “no exaggeration to say you’re surrounded by the very best of what Denver has to offer.”
Guests of The Crawford can enjoy the unique experience of sleeping within Denver’s landmark train station, which is home to several award-winning restaurants, including the MICHELIN Guide “Recommended” Mercantile Dining & Provision led by Chef Alex Grenier. Sip cocktails in the romantic Cooper Lounge, grab a craft beer at Terminal Bar or a scoop of Little Man ice cream from Milkbox Ice Creamery.
