Populus Hotel – Denver Colorado
Denver’s Newest Hotel was designed after an instantly recognizable symbol of Colorado, the Aspen Tree, also known as Populus Tremuloides. Not only does this hotel have a striking tree-inspired design but it also has a Rooftop Bar with spectacular city views of downtown Denver.
Studio Gang Architecture is proud to announce that Populus is the “first carbon positive hotel in the US”.
