The train from DIA to Union Station is $9 and is the easiest way to travel from the airport to the hotel. It’s a .7 mile (8 blocks) walk from the station to the hotel straight down 17th street. Or if you don’t want to walk, there is a bus route and taxis/Uber at Union Station.
That’s what I plan on doing. Seems silly to take a taxi/Uber from the airport to downtown. Depending on the time of day the train might be significantly faster.
@Bob Keeney I agree with you. And I am a big fan of Uber as I use it for work all the time. But when they have a train like that that is fast & reliable it makes it hard not to use the train.
I am looking forward to avoiding traffic on the train, so much faster! From the Union Station, you can hop on a bus (right by the train) with a big label “FREE MALL RIDE.” It goes all around the area, you’ll be on it for a few stops to Stout Street. The hotel is at 17th street & Stout, so you’ll almost be at the door!
Seems pretty easy and much cheaper than an Uber or Taxi!
I felt ashamed when I discovered there is $9 train after I used a taxi.
Nobody should do the taxi as airport is far outside the city and the train is faster, cheaper and brings you just a few blocks away from hotel.
