Budget Hotels Near Denver International Airport (DEN)

Denver International Airport is about 25 miles from downtown Denver, east of Aurora. SkyRide bus service is available to Denver and other area locations such as Boulder. Rail access is planned in the future. Denver area hotels tend to be more expensive than average, though these budget hotels offer excellent value.

For business travelers visiting the Denver Tech Center, DIA-area hotels are a good choice, avoiding traffic in the downtown area as the Tech Center is also east of the city.
