An Excellent Location for Enjoying Nightlife
Fitzsimons is a multi-level property with several bars, so some guests opted to just stay on site to drink and have fun. However, even if you'd rather not do that, this property boasts a prime location where you're never more than a few steps away from pubs, music venues and eateries to explore.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Inconsistent Service from Staff Members
According to reviews, hotel management might want to think about retraining some staff members. Although there was some feedback where guests said the service was outstanding and staff really went out of their way to help, others complained the service they received was very cold, and that sometimes the employees were quite rude.
negative:
Small and Old Rooms
Many guests were quick to clarify that anyone who stays here is paying for location above all else. The discussed how the rooms were cramped and very dated. Some even said they would not stay here for romantic nights or other special occasions because the rooms did not have many positive attributes.
negative:
Late-Night Party Sounds
If you're looking for a quiet place to sleep, this hotel isn't a good pick. Because the property doubles as a thriving bar, guests said they often heard nightclub noises until the very early morning hours. Nearby pubs may also increase the noise, based on what guests said about rooms that faced the street.
