Hostel Of The Rockies

Welcome to Denver and to Hostel of the Rockies! The hostel building is a 102 years old, elegant apartment building converted into a 50-bed hostel!

We have brought in a new highly experienced management team in July, who has hostel management experience at many top hostels worldwide. We have completely re-done the yard and will be putting into effect many interior renovations in the next 8 weeks.

Don't miss our guest BBQ on Saturday evenings in the back yard!

The hostel has dorms with bunk beds, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 beds per dorm. The hostel is centrally located to the many cultural attractions in the 'Mile High City'. With public transportation just steps away, hostellers have easy access to the Museum of Nature and Science, City Zoo, Denver Botanic Gardens, City Park, Cheeseman Park, 16th Street Mall, Colorado History Museum, Fine Arts Museum, and the historic Larimer Square. The festive Lodo district, Colorado State Capitol, and the world's largest bookstore, the Tattered Cover, are also nearby.


Denver has been designated 'Sport City USA' and is also a major gateway to mountain recreation. More than 52 restaurants lie within one mile of the hostel. We look forward to seeing you here!

***Please note our CANCELLATION POLICY IS 48HRS.***
