Downtown Denver Hotel Guests Enjoy Discounts at the Historic Antique Row

Denver, CO (PRWEB) December 10, 2008 -- The staff of the AAA Four Diamond award-winning Grand Hyatt Denver Downtown hotel (http://granddenver.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels/index.jsp) today announces an innovation in weekend getaways with the launch of their Antiquing Package. This environmentally friendly Denver hotel package (http://granddenver.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels/offers/offers.jsp) allows a 10% discount at 44 merchant shops along the city's renowned Antique Row, located on South Broadway, less than five miles from the Grand Hyatt Denver. Additionally, the package provides a 20% discount on food and beverage at the downtown Denver hotel's restaurant, 1876 (http://granddenver.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels/entertainment/index.jsp) , the Fireside Cocktail Lounge and through in-room dining.

Antique Row features 199 antique dealers, restaurants and galleries in vintage buildings along an 18-block stretch. Merchants - many of whom have been in business for 30 years or more - offer quality antiques and home furnishings, vintage toys, fine wines, rugs, handcrafted picture frames, tiles, custom lighting and furniture amid dining establishments and even a tea room.

Greg Leonard, general manager of the Grand Hyatt Denver hotel, said: "We understand that antiquing is not only fun and engaging, it is a major 'green' initiative, allowing items such as books and things with unique and personal meaning to find a new life. It's a modern-day treasure hunt and recycling at its finest."

Future Revitalization of Antique Row Shops, Minutes from Downtown Denver

During the coming year, the area in which these shops now reside will see a revitalization. With the widening of South Broadway, a landscaped median with trees, sidewalk planters, park benches and decorative wrought-iron street lamps will be added, creating a new feel and making it even more pedestrian-friendly.

Access to Antique Row from the downtown Denver Grand Hyatt is a simple ride on the Light Rail. Those who choose to drive the 4.4-mile distance enjoy free parking.
