Best view in Denver from an easily accessible public place. I always take my out-of-town guests here for a drink or dessert. It's not cheap but worth the experience. Also check out the art in the lobby downstairs (I heart the rock climbers). read more

I feel badly that I haven't yet reviewed this spot! I certainly have spent more than a few evenings here. Why 4 stars you ask??? Well........ I will be the first to admit that the drinks are overpriced, the staff spotty and the food options pretty terrible! But, that said, the view, the view, the view make this venue incredible!! I think it is a wonderful spot for a night cap. Dine elsewhere, enjoy a bottle of wine elsewhere and just finish the evening off with a glass of champagne and a view of our gorgeous mountains. Enough said. :-) read more

I can understand getting so-so service a a sports bar but not at an elegant place like Peaks Lounge. Clearly there is no real management here and it's such a shame that a beautiful, romantic setting - perhaps the best view in Denver - has to come with the WORST wait staff in the city. I've never been treated so rudely outside of New York. The servers are abrasive and clueless. We asked our server what cheese was on the cheese plate and the response we got was a terse, "I don't know". That was it. No, "let me find out", or "would you like me to ask". Just a terse, "I don't know". I won't go back. I'm happy to give my hard earned money to people who appreciate it but I won't give it to rude, abrasive people who obviously feel it is beneath them to work in the service industry. This attitude is pervasive in Denver and it drives me nuts. To all the services staff out there - if you don't want to do the job get out of the way and let someone who does want it do it. It's called the service industry for a reason and we all - those of us who are patrons - owe it to ourselves and others to vote with our dollars and when we get terrible service we need to complain and/or not go back. read more

I never even knew such a place existed in Denver. I wish there were more bars like this that show off the amazing views we are so lucky to have here in Denver. You can see a lot of the city as well as the gorgeous mountains to the west. I know that it's overpriced, but you have to consider, this is located on the 27th floor of the Grand Hyatt, right downtown. It's to be expected, so I can't really complain. I loved my chocolate strawberry martini. It was pretty strong so I only had one, and it was $12. The vodka wasn't overpowering like most martini's are. It was mixed with muddled strawberry which took this cocktail over the top. I think this is going to be a place that we for sure will take guests that visit us from out of town. If the views don't impress, the drink prices surely will! read more

Sometimes you just need to splurge. Peaks Lounge allows for this. It's at the top of the Hyatt downtown, so you can enjoy a drink and an amazing view at the same time. Our server was attentive, friendly, and helpful. Upon overhearing us discussing another place to visit, she even provided us with a coupon for said destination. It ain't cheap here, make no mistake. A round of martinis costs a pretty penny. They have small noshes as well, also pricey. But if you're downtown and want to live large for an hour, come here. It's a good place. read more

Has a view of the whole city from multiple angles. Drinks are priced higher than the rest of the city, but it's worth the view. You can see the mountains and most of the city. Very convenient location across the Convention Center. read more

I love this place - talk about a great date place. Sultry ambiance, great mixed cocktails and outstanding appetizers. The shrimp cocktail is to die for and the scallops do not disappoint. The view of downtown couldn't be better - unless the windows slid open and fresh air were included. It's incredible. The bar staff are excellent service people. It's a "must -add" to any dating repertoire. Sexy and clean at the same time. A great place to propose *wink*. read more

Love this place! Just wanted to add about the fabulous V-day night we had. On Vday week, Peaks Lounge does a special chocolate-wine pairing extravaganza! They have 4 stations, all featuring different chocolate yummies paired with different wine/champagne selections. You can choose 1, 2, 3 or all 4 stations but honestly, 2 is plenty for a couple. They give you samples of 4 wines (or champagnes, depends on the station) and have a variety of 8+ varieties of chocolates desserts per station. The desserts per station are unlimited but you only get one sample of each of the wines/champagnes. We decided on the champagne and the dessert wine stations. The chocolates were delish! I apparently have no self control when it comes to french macaroons... none! The chocolate wine was very good, the champagnes were also fab. I had made reservations so we had a table right by the window and contrary to popular believe, no snow or rain that day, yay!! Beautiful night to overlook the city and sip our cocktails while divulging the desserts! I highly recommend this place, once again. read more

The view is killer, the price of beer... also killer but in a bad way. The view has the potential to make up for a lot of things, but really, why not be price competitive and lure more folks (hotel guests, and non) up there. We went for a small get together, and left after 1 beer each... because they cost $7 each. I can't speak to the food or the service, we didn't wait too long for our beer, but definitely won't be going back until we've won the power ball. read more

Five stars for the view, but not really much else. But I won't give this place five stars because I came on $8 beer night. Sad to see Laura go at her bon voyage party..but it's not goodbye, just goodbye for now!! Great to see and meet other Yelpers as always, with a gorgeous view of Denver as your backdrop. I'm willing to come back to show out of towners this great view for a drink but that's it, only one drink..... read more

We had our Bon Voyage party here for Laura L. last night. Peaks definitely has the best view in the city! And while the drinks are expensive ($6 for a bottle of Pellegrino-yikes!), it's definitely on par with other hotel bars here and elsewhere. I also appreciate Jess and Amelia helping me out with "reserving" an area for the us Yelpers even though they don't take reservations. While Peaks isn't a place I'll go to often, it's certainly a place to go for special occasions. read more

The view got a star. Service and drinks are horrible. I had the pear tree martini which I only taste syrup. My friend got 27th floor, gross. All of us tried and none in our party get it. No service whatsoever. just order. pay the bill. Meh. not again. read more

I stayed at the Hyatt during my visit to Denver for the Broncos game. The last night we were there we decided to check out this lounge since it was conveniently in the hotel. The ambiance and view was great! I liked the dim lighting, which makes the city lights pop out even more. The crowd was a bit older, but I wasn't there to mingle, so it's alright. We did order food, which is why this is getting a 3 star instead of something higher. We ordered the beef carpaccio and wings. Not impressed at all. The wings texture and flavor were just all wrong and the carpaccio was salty and no additional flavor. We couldn't even finish the meal. I also ordered the maple bacon cupcake - sounded appealing, but tasted like a cupcake from a cheap grocery store. read more

I proposed at Peaks Lounge and it's definitely our new go to. Jon(manager) helped me along the way to make sure our special day went just as planned. Barbie was our waitress and everyone loved her as she was very nice and attentive to our party of 20. The drinks were delightful and so were all the appetizers. I would also like to give credit to all the bartenders, Rasheed specially for a job well done. If you're looking for a great place to relax and have a drink while watching the sunset, this is the place to be. I can't wait to come back with my fiancée now... this is a place that we will never forget and always recommend. read more

After riding one of the fastest elevators up the the 27th floor bar, my friends and I were welcomed with one of the most beautiful views of downtown Denver. Amazing! They have a number of "signature drinks" on the menu. Eh. I had a cable car (think orange and cinnamon) and the two straight males in the group had 27th Floors. These were essentially a fancy White Russians in a chocolate dusted martini glass. Both drinks were okay, but I recommend sticking with the wine. A glass is roughly the same price, but they were far better than the mix drinks. In smart drinking practices, each drinker at our table was provided with a gratis small carafe of trail mix. Tasty, but after a couple of drinks I almost went to the table next to us to graze. They had ordered about half of the appetizer menu. Everything looked and smelled wonderful. read more

Great, Stunning, Wonderful view, as others have mentioned. Overpriced drinks and appetizers. Bored bartenders and aloof cocktail waitresses. BUT... there's cozy corners with couches and a fireplace in which to snuggle. There's comfy seats around cocktail tables. There's floor-to-cieling windows with that aforementioned stunning view. So- If you're at the hotel anyway, it's definitely worth it for the view. Have we mentioned the View? read more

I want to love this place I really really do. But I feel like they don't want me too. We stay at this hotel frequently and inevitably going to this bar frequently comes up. It is truly a spectacular place with spectacular views. We unfortunately leave here feeling underwhelmed almost every time, and it is almost always is due to the service. We have never had great service, and rarely had moderate service, it is usually just bad. It is unfortunate, for we REALLY want to love this place, but with a place this nice, with the prices that they have, the service really should be better. They always seem to be a bit understaffed, and drinks take a long time, even when you order from the bar. That said, it is hard to give it lower than a 3 star rating just because the views are that spectacular. But if you are staying there, you can just go back to your room and have a cocktail there and have the same views, as we had to, for we got sick of waiting to get served. read more

I would've given this place a 5, but they were a little miffed when I tried bringing in food from the Thai Cart. Oh well, I guess I knew that was coming... Anyway, this is located in the Hyatt Hotel on the 27th floor, and it had an amazing view of the city. However, the price was highly correlated with the number of floors it took to get there, so I didn't buy any beer here. Bottomline: Not a bad place to hang out. The cheese bread was good, and they also served complimentary nuts/pretzels/salty stuff. The elevator was fast too. read more

What better way to enjoy a meal while viewing the Rockies at sunset? This lounge is sexy! You can either sit at the high top tables and enjoy your cocktail as if in a regular bar or sit on the plush couches or regular tables and enjoy the 90-degree view of Colorado's splendor. Although it is a bar, the menu is carefully selected by an obviously trained chef who serves up finger food dishes like Buffalo Reuben Sliders, Rabbit-filled Tacos, Mushroom & Goat Cheese Flatbreads to savor as you sip on delicious cocktails that would make your mouth water for more. I had the Buffalo Sliders and they were DELICIOUS! Not gamey at all. I would definitely like to go back. I could have stayed up there all night! A must do if in Denver! read more

A truly spectacular view! The lounge spans the entire length of the Hyatt Hotel. It is long and narrow and has a variety of seating: two-person tables against the window, large 6-8 person tall tables, comfortable couches with tons of pillows, a nice semi-private nook next to a fireplace. You are guaranteed a great view of the city from almost any seat in the place. If I lived in Denver, I'd be here often. read more

The view from the Peaks Lounge is the best part, by far. The drinks are expensive, but you really are paying for the view, so suck it up. The scotch selection is average, and their signature cocktails range from exceptional to "just average". However, if you're looking for a place to kick back, have a great view, and chat with some soft music in the background, this spot can't be beat. read more

My wife and I visited here on a Saturday evening just after sunset. The view was absolutely amazing and the ambience in the lounge was quiet, romantic and cozy. Within about 30 minutes of us getting there the place started to fill up, but even with more people there it was still nice. The service was quick and efficient and the dreams were very yummy (I had vodka/tonic and my wife had a black cherry palm martini). The only reason I'm not giving them 4 stars is that the drinks were not cheap. The martinis were $12 each and the vodka was $8 each. For 4 drinks plus tip we paid over $40. Otherwise... you have to go here at least once to see the view from the highest bar in Denver. read more

I was really disappointed. We checked this place out to take our out of town guests for our wedding. The bar was packed with out of towners here at a conference and older folks. Definitely not the vibe are looking for. Nice views but eh. The thing that pissed me off the most, though, was that my fiancé asked for a manhattan. The waitress asked what bourbon he wanted. He asked what she had. She didn't know so he asked for Bakers. She said, "ok." We got the bill. The already over priced manhattan ($12) was $6 more because of the Bakers. She never mentioned that and that's an outrageous up-charge for Bakers. It was a joke of a bar and we won't be bringing anyone or be back. read more

It's good to come at least once in your lifetime, especially if you're visiting our fair city. We came once when it first opened and about once a year since then. Beautiful decor and view. Excellent service! Only merits 3 stars because their drink prices are ridiculously high. Tasty drinks, yes. But worth $10/pop? No. I'd drink at home for far less, but the view isn't nearly as good! read more

The only time I have ever been here (so far) was during this past weekend's Zombie Crawl. My crew and I were on our way to another bar to meet up with friends when we passed the Hyatt. My friend Brittany had the brilliant idea of going up to this classy 27th floor joint dressed as the undead. Needless to say, we all began migrating towards the entrance with limited discussion. First off, the clients didn't like us ("I thought this was zombie free zone") but that was not only to be expected but it was kind of what we were begging for. The bartender was nice despite us not sticking to any implied dress code whatsoever. (Although being asked to leave would have been rock and roll too). The drinks are expensive ($5.50 minimum for a beer and $10 minimum for a mixed drink) but honestly, considering the view (breathtaking: you can see the whole city) and the ambiance, I wouldn't have been surprised if it were jacked up more. The place was dead as it was 4PM on a Saturday. My girls and I are going to go back in a month or two because we do a monthly Dress Night and this would be a fun place. 27th floor? C'mon-that's a good time in of itself! read more

Great service by our waiter, Mark. Attentive, efficient, and friendly. Beverages were definitely overpriced. This is a Union establishment, support the Labor Movement! read more

Came here for pre-dinner cocktails a few weeks ago and I must say WOW. I didn't know such a gem was hiding in the Hyatt hotel. The sunset and view were spectacular. I ordered a few speciality cocktails from the menu (some berry acai vodka thing and a mijito) both were very tasty. The service was quick and nice except when the waitress asked us if we were going to eat to which we said no and she responded with 'liquid diet I like that!'. Not really something you say to my father and his wife (it was her birthday by the way). But the view and ambience was great. They were playing Beatles songs the entire 2 hours we were there and although I liked it I'm guessing some people got annoyed. I be back for appetizers and the sunset view again sometime soon! read more

Ambiance here is almost unmatched by anywhere else in Denver. If you want a girl to fall in love with you rapidly this the spot. It offers pretty spectacular views of the front range and beautiful downtown buildings. The service is very good and the bar staff includes some legitimate mixologists. I rate it 3 stars instead of 5 for a couple of reasons... a) Pricey! And there is NO happy hour b) Limited food selection c) No wifi - Hey I would really like to smooze clients here d) Hours of operation - I'd like to do casual meetings during the day but it doesn't open till 4 or 5 in the afternoon read more

It was a pretty quiet Sunday night and not too much was happening at the first few bars we hit up, so boredom and curiosity lead us to Peaks Lounge on the 27th floor of the Hyatt. We weren't sure if we were in the highest lounge in the hotel, and when I asked, I was told it's the highest bar not only in the hotel, but in all of Denver! The view spanned the whole length of the building and the nighttime view of Denver made me feel like I might actually live in a city! As mentioned, the drinks aren't cheap, but I settled on a Sunshine Wheat with a slice of orange for $5.50 and I savored it along with the good conversation and the great view. I'd like to see that place when it's hopping! It would be great for a classy event of some sort. read more

So while in Denver this place was referenced as a "must see" being a tourist and wanting to do a "touristy" thing I checked it out. Here are my observations: 1- the view is absolutely amazing. I agree that as a tourist this is a must see. 2- the chimney gives the decor the right touch. 3- it's hard to forget that you are at a hotel bar. I mean the elevators are right in front of the bar entrance. 4- the wine selection is decent. Kim Crawford white wine I'm in. Although, a glass there will cost you as much as a bottle at your local liquor store. 5- the flatbreads fell short. The chorizo one is too spicy and the mushroom one is too bland. As a tourist from a state with no mountains, I am glad I checked this bar out. As a local, I'm not sure I would frequent this place. read more

The view is high enough for exhilaration, but Denver just doesn't look that interesting from the sky. 4 stars for the Strawberry shortcake girly cocktail I ordered. read more

As soon as I thumbed through their drink menu, I was disappointed. I don't mind spending more money on a well-crafted/fancy cocktail, but nothing on their menu even appealed from me. I think maybe it was written in the 1980s and hasn't been updated since. They should take a cue from a place like Dazzle or Steuben's and get some more modern (and classic) drinks on the menu and leave off the purple woo woos (not an actual drink there, but may as well be.) Also, our waitress had asked for a room number or credit card to hold our tab as soon as we sat down, but then ran the card when we were finished without asking if we wanted all of the drinks on that one card. Pretty lame since drinks here are a bit more expensive and we definitely did not want them charged to one card. The views here are fantastic and the elevators are wacky fast, so this bar would be a cool place to take out-of-town visitors if they updated their drink menu and had more conscientious service. Until then, I am not sure... read more

What a beautiful bar to take friends from out of town! I took people from China, Amsterdam, San Francisco and Atlanta and they all took pictures and oohd and aahd like kids. Service was great. Get a seat by the window, which actually isn't too difficult. It's on the 27th floor. Not all the elevators go there. read more

Came in a couple of times for a drink. We didn't order food, but the drinks were really good. The view is spectacular which is why it gets 4 stars. I thought 2 out of 3 servers there were a bit snooty. I may not be dressed to go to the opera, but I don't think I was poorly garbed. I like to drink and tip well so the 2 got mediocre tips. The service at the Stratabar on the first floor is much better. read more

See all

1. View was amazing 2. Service was great. We wanted to get a drink or two before our dinner at Altitude downstairs. We sat down and was greeted within a few minutes with menus. The waitress came back with water and took our drink orders. Drink were brought to us in a reasonable amount of time. We were frequently checked on for refilling our waters and if we wanted to order another drink. Yes we did! 3. I ordered the 27th floor martini and husband ordered the old fashion. My martini was yummy and tasted like chocolate cake. Husband said his drink was ok-good. Could have been stronger. 4. Price was typical for a night out. No complaints. 4 stars only for the lack of alcohol in my husband's drink. read more

I wanted to take my boyfriend on a romantic date and I had read about Peak's Lounge as one of the most romantic places in Denver. It certainly delivered. He was surprised (because I didn't tell him where we were going) and I was very happy with my selection. We had 2 drinks each and the bill was $35, but the view was great and the waitress was very nice, she even called me by name (because I had given my credit card). She was attentive but not overbearing. It was a Monday night and the place was not even half full when we left around 10:30, but there was still a pretty good crowd for a Monday night. I bet on the weekends it would be packed. I would recommend this place for a romantic date or to bring out of town guests. Go at sunset and you won't be disappointed. read more

Very relaxed environment with an overview of the city that welcomes tourists and locals. Whether you stay at the Hyatt regency or not, this is definitely a place you should stop for a drink. The view from the 27th floor is mesmerizing. Drinks are reasonably priced for being downtown (and in my opinion cheap compared to NYC rooftops). The wait staff is very accommodating and welcoming. read more

You're definitely paying for the view here. Something special to experience once or bring the tourists to, but a regular hangout... I say no! The pours are extremely weak and the prices are as high as the bar. I witnessed the bartender make drink after dink then 4 to 5 people would stick a straw in and taste them. are all those people in my drink really necessary? It was quite unappealing. I ended up getting up and moving from that area. I the view here is amazing, but one drink to start off the evening will do. read more
