Stayed here for a conference and the room was really clean, towels were fresh and new, loved the shampoo/conditioner/body wash provided, the phone worked, and can cast my shoes in their TV. Dining options were good inside the hotel and walkable to other shops and restaurants that are between hotel and Golden 1 Center. Staff is nice but forgot to next me to let me know when room was ready. Would’ve appreciated having the fridge available to store beverage too, but it was stocked inside already.

Great spot, right next to the golden1 center so if you like the kings this is the best spot. Also has some decent restaurants but particularly like the revival restaurant on the 3rd floor. Great drinks and food. Also staff is top notch. Finally rooms are also nice with the plus being it's quiet as well

I was very disappointed in my stay at Kimpton. We reserved a balcony patio room, but the patio was filthy upon arrival and we could not sit in the chairs as they were missing the cushions and apparently did not have any replacements. Our room was just ok, carpets were stained & the bedding was very poor quality. The comforter was so thin you could see through it. We paid $2k total for 2 nights and it was so not worth the hype. The only positive was the hotels location, which was immediately adjacent to the arena we were seeing a concert. And when I mentioned these items to hotel mgmt, they offered me a $100 credit on my bill, which I actually never received.
