The updates are detail-oriented, inspired by elegant train rides on the Orient Express. A release from the hotel said it is “designed to embrace the grand architecture of Denver Union Station.”

The details go down to light fixtures inspired by pearls and even smart alarm clocks that are designed by sleep scientists. The Loftie alarm clocks can tell bedtime stories for both children and adults, celebrating Dana Crawford’s life and legacy as an influential businesswoman in Denver’s history.

More renovations are expected to be completed this July to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the revitalization of Union Station. According to the release, the $11 million renovation will also include the Great Hall, Cooper Lounge and 8,000 square feet of meeting and event space.
