The Brown Palace Hotel and Spa, Autograph Collection, is a historic Denver landmark with origins dating to the late 19th century. Commissioned by Henry C. Brown and opened in 1892, the hotel is noted for its distinctive triangular, flatiron form and its soaring central atrium crowned by a stained‑glass skylight. Across generations it has played a central role in Denver’s civic and social life, hosting presidents, artists and civic leaders and serving as a setting for public events, dining and cultural rituals such as afternoon tea. Today it combines preserved historic interiors with contemporary hospitality and a spa, and is recognized for its architectural and cultural significance. Public spaces and special exhibitions reflect local history; visiting times for shared areas and any admission or reservation requirements vary, and accessibility accommodations are provided in general terms.
