We are seniors,we love architecture and history. We have 2 trips booked to the mountains. Thanks

Answer

Both the Hyatt Centric Downtown Denver and the Embassy Suites by Hilton Downtown Convention Center are centrally located in Denver and are generally safe, clean, and well-rated. For seniors who enjoy architecture, history, and convenient access to downtown attractions, here’s a breakdown of each property to help you choose.

Hyatt Centric Downtown Denver:

Located in the LoDo (Lower Downtown) district, close to Union Station, historic buildings, and vibrant streets lined with restaurants and galleries.
The building itself has a modern, boutique-style design while maintaining a connection to Denver’s historical architecture in the area.
Walking access to historic Larimer Square, Coors Field, and several museums.
Generally quieter at night compared to hotels closer to major event venues.
Safety: LoDo is a lively area but tends to be well-patrolled, especially near Union Station and the pedestrian-friendly streets.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Downtown Convention Center:

Located near the Colorado Convention Center, still within walking distance to downtown attractions, but slightly more oriented to business travelers.
The building is modern, not historic, with large suite-style rooms that include a living area and complimentary breakfast.
Close to cultural sites like the Denver Art Museum and performing arts venues, but a bit further from the historic LoDo area.
Safety: Downtown near the convention center is generally safe, but there may be more foot traffic at night and occasional street activity.

Comparison for Your Needs:

If you enjoy historic architecture and charming streets, the Hyatt Centric in LoDo is more appealing and walkable for exploring Denver on foot.
If room size, suite layout, and amenities like free breakfast are priorities, the Embassy Suites has the advantage.
Both are safe for seniors; standard precautions for downtown areas apply (stay aware at night, keep belongings secure).

Given your interest in architecture and history, and considering your mountain trips are already booked, Hyatt Centric Downtown offers a more scenic and immersive downtown Denver experience while still being safe and convenient for getting to tours and other attractions.
