By Gabriel Circiog, Associate Editor

Etkin Johnson Real Estate Partners and White Lodging Services recently announced the opening of the full-service Denver Marriott Westminster hotel and Tiller’s Kitchen & Bar restaurant in Westminster, Colo.

The 215-room hotel broke ground in August 2012 and has become the first newly constructed, full service hotel in the Denver/Boulder corridor to open in over ten years. The six-floor Denver Marriott Westminster features 12,000 square feet of event, ballroom and meeting space and a new guestroom design.

Tiller’s Kitchen & Bar features a distinctly American menu character which celebrates the bounty of craft producers, local farms, Colorado Ranches and sustainable food sources.

“I am excited for the hotel opening and to represent the Marriott brand here in Colorado,” says Dave Kennedy, General Manager at Denver Marriott Westminster. “We are looking forward to welcoming guests and providing a quality experience for both visitors and those that live in the local community.”

Kennedy, in the past, was the general manager at the Renaissance Flatiron Hotel in Broomfield, Colo. and has joined White Lodging in 2002 as a regional director of training and recruiting. In 2003 he was promoted to general manager of the Boulder Marriott Hotel. Stasia Patience, with over 33 years of experience working for Marriott branded hotels, will join the Denver Marriott Westminster team as director of sales and marketing.

The Denver Marriott West also recently announced it has undertaken a $1 million renovation which aims to bring the beauty of its surroundings indoors. The renovation will cover all public spaces and the Copper Creek bar and restaurant, the casual American eatery undergoing a complete transformation.

Located at 1717 Denver West Boulevard, The Denver Marriott West, features 303 rooms and two suites. The hotel also features 15 meeting rooms with 10,300 square feet of flexible event space, two concierge levels, Starbucks, indoor and seasonal outdoor pools and a fitness center.
