Red Rocks Amphitheatre

What is a NICE hotel close to the Red Rocks Amphitheatre that may provide shuttle service to the amphitheatre?

Red Rocks Amphitheatre is located in Morrison, just west of Denver, and while the venue itself is set in a scenic mountainous area, there are several nearby hotels that combine comfort with relatively easy access to the amphitheatre. Some hotels offer shuttle service to events at Red Rocks, but it’s always best to confirm availability when booking, as shuttle service may depend on the event and season.

Nearby hotel options:

  • Holiday Inn Golden West – Golden, CO – Located about 10 minutes from Red Rocks, this hotel is comfortable and has shuttle services available for special events depending on bookings. It’s a convenient option if you want easy access to Morrison and Golden.
  • The Westin Denver West – Lakewood, CO – About a 15-minute drive to Red Rocks. The Westin often coordinates shuttles for concerts and events, and provides upscale accommodations with full amenities.
  • Hyatt Place Denver/Golden – Modern hotel around 10–15 minutes from Red Rocks. They occasionally provide shuttle service for amphitheatre events. Rooms are spacious and family-friendly.
  • Table Mountain Inn – Golden, CO – Boutique-style lodging with charming mountain views, located roughly 10–12 minutes from Red Rocks. Shuttle service can be arranged in advance for larger groups.

If you prefer staying closer to Denver with more urban amenities while still being able to drive or take a short shuttle, consider:

  • Kimpton Hotel Monaco Denver – Downtown Denver hotel; about 25–30 minutes from Red Rocks. Some events have off-site shuttle arrangements.
  • Hyatt Centric Downtown Denver – Modern and central, great for sightseeing in Denver before heading to Red Rocks. Shuttle options depend on the event.

Tips for Red Rocks visits:

  • Check the Red Rocks official website for official shuttle and parking options. Some hotels partner with event organizers to provide shuttle access.
  • Arrive early for concerts or events, especially in summer, as parking can fill up quickly.
  • If shuttle service isn’t available, rideshare options (Uber/Lyft) are plentiful and generally convenient from nearby hotels.

Staying in Golden or Morrison itself gives the shortest travel time, while Denver offers more hotel variety and city amenities. Booking a hotel that can assist with shuttle arrangements will make the experience seamless and stress-free.
