Overnight in Denver's Historic Union Station (The Crawford)

In this video, we stay at the Crawford Hotel, a 5-Star boutique property located inside the historic Union Station in Denver, Colorado! Originally opened in 1881, Union Station was once the tallest building in the west. However, an electrical fire consumed the original building in 1894. The property was later rebuilt, this time using carved granite fashioned in an imposing Beaux Art style, opening its doors once more in 1914. Union Station was further reimagined in 2014, which is when the various shops and restaurants/bars were added, as well as the Crawford Hotel. So in this video, we'll show you around the station and give you a tour of our Crawford Suite, which is the hotel's most luxurious and most expensive room. So join us for a real look at what it's like to stay in one of Denver's best luxury hotels: the Crawford! Have you stayed at the Crawford Hotel befoe? Would you?

Josh is originally from the San Francisco, California area, though his family moved many times during his childhood (including to Virginia, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas). Inez was born and raised in El Paso, Texas. We found each other in 2016, after we both moved to the Austin, Texas area for college, and we married in 2018! Inez worked in education and Josh in the legal field. We have since embraced our love of travel as a couple and we now seek to share those travels with you on YouTube! While planning one of our recent trips, Josh found it difficult to locate resources that would provide a "real look inside" for certain hotels, restaurants, and unique experiences. Without this information, Josh found it difficult to know whether the hotels, restaurants, or experiences on his short list were "worth the money/effort" or whether the seemingly curated scraps of information he could find painted an unrealistic portrait of same. As a result, we started this travel channel so that we could share our travel experiences with you in order to provide you, our viewers, with that much coveted "real look inside." In doing so, we hope to answer any questions you may have regarding the hotels, restaurants, and experiences we feature on our channel, that way you can decide for yourself whether any of these places are worth your time or money when planning your own travels. Our First Season creating YouTube videos was a learning experience as neither of us previously knew how to film or create videos. We are currently working on Season Two and we look forward to continuing to grow as creators and to continue providing other interested travelers with the kind of helpful information that we look for when planning our own travels. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who watches, likes, and subscribes to our channel! We hope to continue to bring you new travel videos for years to come! Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey! —————————————————— 0:00 - Our Stay at the Crawford! 0:36 - A Brief History of Union Station 1:04 - Exploring Union Station 2:48 - Room Tour: Part 1 - Initial Touches 3:09 - Room Tour: Part 2 - Entry Area & Mini Bar/Kitchenette 6:11 - Room Tour: Part 3 - Living Space & Half Bath 11:15 - Room Tour: Part 4 - Bedroom 14:33 - Room Tour: Part 5 - Primary Bathroom 18:00 - Personal Touches - Dessert & Letter 19:36 - Further Exploring the Crawford 22:04 - Conclusions & Cost 23:17 - Extra Scene lol
