The Source Hotel

Denver, Colorado

Photo: The Source Hotel

A hotel built atop a food market in the heart of RiNo, designed with the neighborhood's industrial-creative DNA in its bones. The rooms are minimal and modern, the rooftop pool has mountain views that feel almost unfair, and downstairs you have Safta, New Belgium, and a handful of artisan vendors at your doorstep. It's the most RiNo thing in RiNo.

Insider tip

The rooftop pool at sunset. Even if you're not staying here, the bar up top is open to the public and worth the elevator ride.

The Wolf's Tailor
EatRiNo

The Wolf's Tailor

A grain-forward restaurant from a former Frasca chef that mills its own flour and bakes some of the most extraordinary bread in Colorado. The pasta is hand-pulled and the whole operation runs on a quiet obsession with ancient grains and fermentation. It's ambitious without being fussy, and every plate has a story rooted in the dirt it came from.

Beckon
EatRiNo

Beckon

A hidden tasting-menu restaurant tucked behind Call, its casual sibling. You walk through what looks like a normal restaurant and end up in a 22-seat room where chef Duncan Holmes serves one of the most inventive prix fixe meals between the coasts. It feels like a secret because it basically is one. Denver's most ambitious kitchen, operating in near-silence.

Hotel Clio
StayHighland

Hotel Clio

A luxury property at the edge of Cherry Creek that feels more like a well-connected friend's penthouse than a hotel. The rooftop pool has unobstructed mountain views, the rooms are clean-lined and warm, and the service walks the line between attentive and invisible. It's the kind of place that makes you wonder why you ever stayed downtown.

StayAlberta Arts District · Portland, Oregon

McMenamins Kennedy School

A former elementary school converted into a hotel, brewery, movie theater, and soaking pool complex. You sleep in old classrooms, drink beer in the former boiler room, and watch movies in the auditorium. It sounds absurd because it is — and it's one of the most purely Portland experiences you can have. Every hallway is painted with murals, and the grounds feel like a slightly surreal summer camp for adults.

StayThe Strip · Las Vegas, Nevada

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas

The hipper alternative to the Wynn — sleeker, younger, more interested in design than in spectacle. The terrace suites have wraparound balconies that make all other Strip rooms feel claustrophobic, and the lobby's eight-pillar Bond Bar is one of the best happy-hour rooms in the city. The Chandelier Bar is three stories of crystal and bourbon.
