It sounds like you're referring to the Peaks Lounge at the Denver Hyatt Convention Center Hotel. …hyatt.com/hyatt/…index.jsp

It does have the best view of the mountains near Denver (although not as far as RMNP), but it is only a lounge, open from 3:00 or 4:00 pm and does not serve meals. It's ironic that Denver doesn't have more restaurants that have a fabulous view, but we really don't!

Welcome back, Shaken. You've been gone a while.

RMNP is 70+ miles from Denver, no views overlooking the Park.

I agree, it's a shame that more restaurants do not take advantage of the views of the Rockies.

Thanks

The view from the Hyatt is amazing though. Always a beautiful sunset.

The food they serve is appetizer/bar food, and drinks.

I'd advise dinner somewhere nearby (there's a lot nearby) and then an after dinner drink or 2 to watch the sunset... or visa versa, depending on your timing.

Theres also a few restaurants in the highlands, accross the highway from downtown, which offer a beautiful view of Denver, but not the mountains (Vita and Lola's) Vita has a great rooftop for happy hour.

HTH,
