Review: Hilton Garden Inn Denver South Meridian

August 6, 2006

This is where I stayed during my Weekend Trip to Denver. Overall, I would stay at this hotel again. The only bad news is that if you are a Hilton Gold member, this hotel doesn’t have any premium rooms to bump you up to. All they can do is put you on the top floor. [...]
